Catalyst Description
CATALYST is a 2025 Fountaine Pajot Samana 59 built for effortless luxury, comfort, and sun-soaked social living. Standout feature: the Samana’s expansive flybridge - the largest in her class - an over-the-sea terrace for daybeds, dining, sundowners, and stargazing. The aft cockpit flows into a panoramic salon with an open-plan galley, while the forward bow lounge adds a breezy perch for morning mimosas or sunset views. At the waterline, a hydraulic swim platform makes ocean dips and launching water toys a breeze. Sleeps 8 in 4 cabins: 1 King and 3 Queen - each with a private ensuite. Offered only select weeks and customized beyond the standard build - CATALYST feels polished, personal, and unforgettable.

Catalyst Crew Profile
Captain
Chef/First Mate
Captain Joe
Born and raised in Auckland, New Zealand, Joe spent every spare minute on the water aboard his family’s small powerboat - water-skiing, fishing, and falling in love with the ocean. While completing a civil engineering degree, a sailing holiday to Croatia turned into an unexpected job for the rest of the season, and the hook was set. After a few years balancing a “normal” career with any excuse to get back to sea, he committed to professional sailing in 2018.
Since then, Joe has worked extensively in Greece, Croatia, Spain, and the Caribbean, delivered yachts across Europe, and logged more than 50,000 nautical miles - including five transatlantic crossings and one Pacific crossing. He holds an RYA Yachtmaster Ocean certification and brings calm, capable seamanship to every passage.
When he’s not plotting the perfect course, Joe channels his endurance-sport mindset - he’s completed multiple marathons and Ironman triathlons - into running a smooth, upbeat program onboard. He’s also handy behind the bar and the grill, happily shaking sunset cocktails or firing up a beach BBQ to make the day’s finale as memorable as the sail.
Chef Georgie
Raised in the UK, Georgie grew up sailing on her family yacht and racing dinghies - eventually becoming an assistant dinghy instructor and spending a summer in Cape Cod as a camp sailing counsellor. She went on to host a flotilla (where she met Joe), worked a winter as a chalet sous-chef, and has since sailed on various vessels with Joe as chef/mate.
Over the past few years, Georgie has steadily honed her culinary skills and recently completed a two-month Chef Academy course. She loves creating fresh, summery menus and has a well-known soft spot for indulgent desserts. Friendly, organized, and guest-focused, she brings an easy warmth to the table - making every meal feel like a highlight of the day.
When she’s not in the galley or on deck, Georgie is a keen photographer and loves capturing candid moments at sea - so you can take home a gallery of memories from your holiday.
