Her chine is the detail everyone notices second, after the transoms.
Taut lines and sculpted bows keep wetted surface low while the pronounced lower chine flares hull volume upward, buying interior space without adding drag. Sugarscoop transoms extend well beyond the hulls themselves, turning what used to be a step into a proper landing stage for tenders, paddleboards and swimmers. Forward, the cockpit ties directly into the trampoline rather than sitting apart from it, so the bow becomes one continuous space rather than a separate lounging deck reached by a narrow walkway. It is a hull drawn by people who have spent decades building catamarans and know exactly which lines earn their place.
She is not built to be pushed, she is built to be sailed for weeks at a time.
Twin Volvo D3 150 horsepower diesels come as standard, with Yanmar and lower output Volvo alternatives for owners who prioritise range over reserve power, and she settles into a steady 9 knot cruise with 12 knots available at full throttle. A 1.6 metre draught keeps shallow anchorages accessible for a boat this size, and an 1,100 litre fuel capacity supports a 300 nautical mile range between fills. Lagoon claims 8 to 9 knot average speeds under sail in moderate conditions, respectable for a fully equipped cruising catamaran carrying real payload rather than a stripped out racer.
Lagoon calls the saloon loft style, and for once the comparison holds.
An L shaped galley sits against a freestanding bar unit, with U shaped seating wrapping a telescopic table that extends for the whole cabin party or folds away for open floor space. Full height glazing keeps the sea in view from every seat, and the flush decked cockpit outside carries the same open plan logic onto the exterior, one continuous social space rather than a series of separate rooms. It is a layout built around gathering, not around corners.
The owner’s cabin takes two thirds of the starboard hull, and it shows.
In the standard four cabin layout, that suite runs nearly the full length of the hull, with three further guest cabins across the layout, each with its own ensuite. Five and six cabin charter versions exist for operators who need berths over volume, sleeping up to ten guests either way with two crew accommodated separately. Around twenty of the original 1987 hull were built, a modest number that makes this new generation, already commanding strong pre launch demand, a rarer proposition among cruising catamarans of her size.
A flagship built on decades of the same idea, refined rather than reinvented.
Naval architecture comes from VPLP, exterior lines from Patrick Le Quément and interiors from Nauta Design, the same three names behind Lagoon’s most accomplished recent launches. At 16.6 metres length and a 9 metre beam, she displaces around 27 tonnes, comfortably within the range this size of catamaran should carry. New builds start from around 1.4 million euros, positioning her as a serious step up for owners who want more hull, more cabins and more range without leaving the same design lineage.
