AD ASTRA

A three-metre balcony folds down out of each side of the cockpit, opening the boat to the water with two extra outdoor lounging spaces over the hulls. AD ASTRA 80 is a Fountaine Pajot Thira 80, the 78-foot sailing catamaran from Berret-Racoupeau Design, delivered new in 2024 and based at Lavrion's Olympic Marine year-round. Ten guests sleep across five cabins, all served by a crew of five.

The foredeck is a second living area in its own right, with sunpads, sunken lounge seating, and a jacuzzi cut into the bow. The flybridge runs above with its own lounge space, while the salon below opens onto the aft cockpit through full-height glass and the dining cockpit comfortably seats ten.

Two jet skis sit on the swim platform alongside a Seabob, paddleboards, a kayak, water skis, and snorkel and fishing kit, with the tender on davits for shore runs and beach launches. BBQ, ice maker, deck shower, bimini, and salon stereo round out the standard kit, with air conditioning throughout.

Lavrion sits one road south of Athens, which puts the Cyclades inside half a day's run and the Saronic Gulf as close as the next morning. She summers and winters in the same berth and runs the season out of one marina, with the boat in commission year-round on a Greek flag.
