Don't miss Lagoon at the next autumn boat shows

You will find Lagoon at Genova, La Rochelle, Annapolis, Barcelona and at several other boat shows all over the world.

A wind of modernity will blow on the Lagoon stands this autumn! Lagoon will present nearly its entire range from 11 to 24 metres at the European and American boat shows including 3 new models. In September, the Cannes Yachting Festival will kick off with the world premiere of the 40, 50 and SEVENTY 8. To find out about all the models presented at the autumn boat shows, click here.

NEW FOR 2018 – 40:

a new Lagoon generation with increased style and performance.

A true “combination of expertise”, the new 40 symbolizes the synergy of Lagoon’s innovation, replacing the 39 and 400 models.

 

A sleek and innovative design

With her new visual identity, the 40 immediately stands out. While faithful to the image of Lagoon’s “DNA”, a new style is born: an individual, streamlined and accomplished design depicts her large portholes and panoramic view. This creates a refined and high-performance unit, emphasized by the chamber running from the bow to the stern. A new generation Lagoon, recognizable at first sight.

 

Exterior: space and comfort

  • A comfortable cockpit looking out to sea: a starboard dining table, able to accommodate up to twelve guests, a recreation area on the same side and seating at the rear beam.
  • An ergonomic helm station accessible from the cockpit or deck, thus enabling communication between the skipper and crew at all times.
  • Large aft transoms with a spacious swim platform, allowing simple access to the tender and safe, easy boarding.
  • A forward cockpit, fitted with a sunbathing area, provides further living space.

 

Interior: elegance and luminosity

  • A selection of luxurious materials, by Nauta Design, enhances the new interior lines.
  • A wide choice of accommodation layouts to meet the needs of owners and large families: available in three or four cabins.
  • A new aft cabin, fitted with a « semi Island bed » berth and multiple storage space.
  • Large hull window glazing with integrated portholes in the cabin provide exceptional natural light and an outstanding view.

Particular attention given to volume layout, smooth flow of circulation and luminosity makes this new interior a truly pleasant living area.

 

New generation rigging: performance and simplicity

A symbol of the new generation Lagoons, the 40 is endowed with advanced performance features: a VPLP hull structure and an increased sail area provide a better sail surface area / displacement ratio. The decision to position the mast step further aft, which stems directly from VPLP’s experience in competitive sailing, provides this catamaran with multiple advantages:

  • A self-tacking jib for simplified maneuvers.
  • A large forward triangle for a wider choice of downwind sails: a guarantee of performance.
  • A shorter boom for ease of maneuvering.
  • A main sail, with a high aspect ratio, enabling the capture of better airflow in the upper parts of the sail for optimized performance.
  • The re-centering of weight, thanks to aft positioning of rigging, considerably reduces pitching.

NEW FOR 2018 – 50:

an opening onto the sea with a balanced and refined unit.

This new boat is the perfect compromise between the emblematic 450 model and the 52. She offers an attractive option to navigators in search of a large “seaworthy and modern” owner’s boat. With her new visual identity, rigging and hull design, she provides increased performance, comprising a unique brand signature. Indeed, the 50’s elegance seduces thanks to the beveled shape of her hulls, generous volumes and panoramic views, more than ever enhanced. With unparalleled accommodation possibilities, this new model is available in three, four or even… six cabins!

 

Exterior: comfortable and functional

  • A flybridge with two secure accesses and a helm station provides perfect visibility. And behind the helm station, a huge modular recreation area conceals a storage area large enough to store all the cushions.
  • A large open cockpit facing out to sea, large stern skirts enable easy access to the boat and a large modular dining area with removable bench seats to welcome children and adults alike.
  • A second cockpit for further enjoyment of the fore deck with dual function: seating or deck chair position, flush with the forward trampoline.
  • Vast storage space under most of the cockpit and fly bridge seats.

 

Interior: generous volumes and luminosity

The spaciously designed layout reveals innovative architecture where every detail has been planned to create a warm, homely atmosphere. The design enables anyone to choose their desired accommodation layout, with three, four, five or even six cabins!

  • An innovative saloon concept on two levels, providing two separate but communicating areas: a large galley that opens onto the cockpit on one side, and a slightly elevated lounge area for enhanced panoramic vision, which can easily be turned into a dining area if needed.
  • An innovative interior design, with a new, elegant and elaborate wood finish to be customized for the owner.
  • Remarkable communication between the interior and the exterior: the central panoramic windscreen is retractable, which is ideal for ventilation of both the saloon and the cockpit. This enables interaction with the forward area.
  • Outstanding natural light in the aft cabins, fitted with panoramic glazing and large hull portholes in the showers and bathrooms.
  • Volume and comfort in the hulls with particular attention to storage space: cabins with « Island bed » berths forward and aft, large storage volumes, hanging lockers, and open bookcases.
  • Large fresh and black water tanks located under the floorboards, thus providing considerable space. A grey water tank is optional in order to comply with environmental standards.

 

New generation rigging: performance and simplicity

The decision to position the mast step further aft, which stems directly from VPLP’s experience in competitive sailing, provides this catamaran with multiple advantages:

  • A self-tacking jib for simplified maneuvers.
  • A large forward triangle for a wider choice of downwind sails: a guaranty of performance,
  • A shorter boom for easier maneuvers.
  • A main sail, with a high aspect ratio, enabling the capture of better airflow in the upper parts of the sail for optimized performance.
  • The re-centering of weight, thanks to aft positioning of rigging, considerably reduces the boat’s pitch.

42

An elegant silhouette, flowing curves, new coachroof design and bow shape, emphasize the powerful and dynamic nature of this new model… A VPLP design assisted by Patrick Le Quément and a Nauta interior design, a guarantee of comfort and performance under sail!

52 F

With its diamond-shaped vertical bows, beveled hulls, its as if levitated deck house and tall rig, the 52 is no ordinary catamaran, but its originality goes a great deal further than just its “outer” appearance, or even its interior layout.

450 F

Replacing a catamaran that has come to be seen as a benchmark is no easy task. But the VPLP architects, in partnership with Lagoon and the celebrated Nauta Design studio, have been brilliantly successful in creating the 450.

630 MY
