The Fountaine Pajot 43ft is the quiet workhorse of Miami charters — the yacht people book when they want style without the flashy crowd. It's a catamaran, which means stability, space, and a ride so smooth your champagne won't spill even when a wake rolls past.
Birthday groups love it for the wide aft deck that fits 8 guests comfortably with room for a cake and dancing. Corporate hosts choose it for client entertaining because the layout encourages conversation — no cramped corners, just open seating that lets everyone see the Miami skyline as you cruise past Star Island. Bachelorette parties book it for the Instagram-worthy bow shots and the easy swim stops at the Key Biscayne sandbar. Families pick it for the shallow draft that gets you close to sandbars where kids can snorkel in crystal-clear water.
Sunset cruises from Bayside to Fisher Island become the highlight of any Miami trip. The catamaran's low freeboard puts you closer to the water, so you feel every golden reflection instead of watching it from behind glass.
Here's what you need to know about the Fountaine Pajot 43ft before you step aboard — the numbers that matter for planning your day on the water.

What sets this yacht apart on Miami waters is the catamaran design — dual hulls mean less rocking, more deck space, and a shallower draft that lets you anchor close to sandbars. The 2 staterooms make it a viable option for overnight trips, though most guests book it for day charters.
The Fountaine Pajot 43ft is available for charter starting at $1500 for 2 hours.
| Charter Duration | Price | Per Hour | Best For |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2 Hours | $1500 | $750/hr | Sunset cruise, quick celebration |
| 4 Hours | $2400 | $600/hr | Half-day, sandbar trip, birthday |
| 8 Hours (Full Day) | $3700 | $463/hr | Full Bahamas day, corporate event |
Every charter includes a professional captain and crew, fuel, insurance, snorkeling gear, and a cooler stocked with ice. You won't find hidden fees for basic amenities — they're baked into the price.
The 4-hour window is the sweet spot for most groups. You get enough time to cruise from Miami Beach Marina to the Key Biscayne sandbar, anchor for a swim, and still catch the skyline on the way back. Full-day charters open up longer runs north toward Fort Lauderdale or a leisurely loop around Venetian Islands.
GQ Concierge isn't just a yacht rental — we're a full-service concierge that turns a boat ride into an event. Here's what we can add to your Fountaine Pajot 43ft charter:
Professional photographer on board — capture every moment from boarding at Miami Beach Marina to the golden-hour toast. You'll get edited, high-resolution images within 48 hours, ready for social media or just your personal album.
Drone videographer — aerial footage of the catamaran gliding across Biscayne Bay with the Miami skyline as your backdrop. The drone follows the yacht, capturing angles you can't get from the deck.
Private chef & catering — from champagne and charcuterie boards to a full gourmet lunch served on the aft deck. We coordinate with local chefs who know how to work a galley and keep the plates coming.
VIP transfer to the marina — arrive in a Cadillac Escalade, Mercedes Sprinter, or Rolls-Royce. GQ picks you up from your hotel or Airbnb and delivers you to the yacht, so you start the day in comfort.
Flower arrangements, birthday setups, custom decorations — tell us the occasion and we'll handle the details. Balloon arches, rose petals, custom banners — all arranged before you board.
Tell us your vision via WhatsApp and we'll handle every detail.
Miami offers more than a thousand miles of coastline, but these four routes deliver the best of what the city has to offer from the water.
Biscayne Bay & Star Island Cruise — Glide past the mansions of Star Island and Fisher Island, where celebrities and billionaires call home. Your captain will slow down so you can snap photos of the Mediterranean-style estates and mega-yachts docked at their private slips. The Miami skyline rises in the background, creating a contrast of old money and new glass towers.
Key Biscayne Sandbar — Anchor in the shallow, turquoise water off Key Biscayne where the sandbar forms a natural pool. Jump in with snorkeling gear, float on the current, and watch the iguanas sunbathe on the rocks nearby. This is the classic Miami day-cruise experience.
Miami Beach & Government Cut — Cruise along the South Beach coastline, past the Art Deco hotels and the busy Port of Miami. Time your trip to watch a massive cruise ship navigate Government Cut — a sight that never gets old. The water opens up here, and the catamaran handles the wake effortlessly.
Sunset Cruise — Depart from Bayside Marketplace as the sun begins to dip. Cruise past the Financial District, under the Venetian Causeway, and toward Fisher Island as the sky turns orange and pink. This is the most romantic hour on Miami waters, and the Fountaine Pajot's stable deck makes it perfect for toasting with a glass of bubbly.
