CHILLI II — 2022 Fountaine Pajot MY5

Luxury, performance and pedigree — without the waitlist

Introducing Chilli II, an immaculately kept, single‑owner MY5 presenting in near‑new condition with just 570 hours on her Volvo IPS engines. Designed in collaboration with Pierangelo Andreani, the MY5 delivers the volume of a 50‑footer in a sleek, ultra‑efficient 40‑foot footprint. She’s the perfect blend of big‑boat living, catamaran stability, and monohull performance — and she’s available right now.

Skip the factory queues, avoid early‑ownership teething issues, and step straight into a proven, turn‑key motor yacht.

Why Chilli II Stands Out

Volvo IPS Docking — Confidence for any skipper

Twin Volvo Penta IPS600s 430hp each with dual‑station joystick control make berthing intuitive and stress‑free. Sideways walking, tight marina manoeuvres, and close‑quarters handling are effortless — even for new IPS users.

Low Hours, High Efficiency

With only 570 hours, these engines are barely run-in. Combined with Fountaine Pajot’s advanced resin‑infusion build, the MY5 is lighter, stronger, and up to 50% more fuel‑efficient than comparable monohulls at her comfortable 18‑knot cruise.

Serious Range for Serious Cruising

A generous 1,400L fuel capacity delivers up to 1,000nm of range at eco‑cruise, opening up remote anchorages and long‑distance passages with complete confidence.

The Flybridge You’ll Live On

A true “beach club in the sky” — expansive lounges, wet bar, fridge, Bimini hardtop, and a commanding upper helm. It’s the ultimate space for entertaining, relaxing, or enjoying long passages.

Indoor/Outdoor Living Done Right

The aft galley flows seamlessly into the cockpit, while panoramic windows flood the saloon with natural light. It’s bright, breezy, and beautifully connected.

Solid Foredeck Lounge

No nets — just a full composite foredeck with a C‑shaped sun lounge. Safe, usable, and perfect underway or at anchor.

Accommodation — 3 Cabin / 2 Head

Owner’s Suite (Port Hull)

A private retreat spanning the entire hull:

  • Queen Island berth

  • Huge hull windows

  • Generous wardrobe storage
