The Fountaine Pajot Maldives 32 can accommodate up to 8 people during the day, with various configurations possible ranging from 2 to 4 cabins.
It is generally equipped with a 15 HP outboard motor, offering a good balance between performance and maintenance, while the twin inboard engine versions are to be avoided due to their weight.
The Maldives 32 is known for its speed and maneuverability at sea, capable of withstanding winds up to 47 knots and waves up to 10 meters high, making it suitable for coastal cruising.
Among the points to monitor are the condition of the portholes, the shrouds, the martingale (subject to oxidation), and the rigging, which must be regularly maintained to avoid high repair costs.
It is advisable to regularly check the rigging, especially the standing rigging, and to perform preventive maintenance on the portholes and the deck fittings to ensure safety and optimize performance.
