Buy a boat in La Rochelle with Cat & Go
Buying a new or pre-owned boat is far more than a financial investment: it is a life decision, a new way of inhabiting the ocean.
In La Rochelle, at the heart of the Port des Minimes, Cat & Go addresses those seeking trust, bespoke advice, and recognized expertise in the world of premium yachts.
Our role? To make this decisive step clearer, more accessible, and above all aligned with your aspirations. Cat & Go relies on close ties with shipyards and years of experience to guide you toward choosing a yacht that truly matches your sailing project.
Fountaine Pajot: the catamaran as a lifestyle
For over 40 years, Fountaine Pajot has been shaping catamarans that combine innovation, comfort, and performance. Designed for both long ocean passages and peaceful anchorages, their models deliver a unique sailing experience. Space and fluidity of life on board become essential.
Collaborating with a shipyard like Fountaine Pajot means embracing a forward-looking vision: continuous pursuit of energy efficiency, integration of hybrid solutions, and a clear commitment to reducing the carbon footprint of yachting.
Choosing a Fountaine Pajot catamaran with Cat & Go is an investment in a refined, more sustainable way of travelling — with no compromise between pleasure and responsibility.
Dufour Yachts: tradition of sailing reinvented
With more than 60 years of history, Dufour Yachts embodies a distinctive vision of sailing: yachts that combine the thrill at the helm with elegance and onboard comfort. Each model is designed to provide exhilarating sensations under sail as well as generous living space at anchor.
Dufour also carries a culture of discreet yet constant innovation. Behind every detail — optimized deck plans, refined finishes, balanced volumes — lies a single aim: to allow every sailor, whether seasoned or first-time owner, to experience the sea with intensity and peace of mind.
With Cat & Go, acquiring a Dufour yacht becomes a project built in direct collaboration with the shipyard. Each delivered yacht reflects exactly the expectations of its owner.

On board, every detail is crafted to make life at sea effortless:
- A vast flybridge offering a 360° panoramic view;
- A forward lounge redefining conviviality;
- Bright, soothing interior spaces;
