It is the unique process and high quality materials that we use to construct our boats that give them a reputation for being solidly built sea-worthy yachts.
Lagoon catamaran build quality. So even though we ended up with a relatively modest score we really liked the 42. We gave the Lagoon 42 a total of 3050 and most of that was weighted in favour of build quality and safety two very important criteria for us. After doing a Lagoon factory tour in France we were happy that the quality of this vessel is superb.
The Lagoon 450F 46 50 and 52F are sailing catamarans with a modern design. Its a given that catamarans are more sensitive to weight and loading than monohulls. Lagoon is a brand dedicated to life and freedom born of a dream combining travel and the comfort of large volumes.
Regardless of the material or build quality all hulls are subjected to the forces of water working against them. Unnecessary production weight gained from less expensive production build procedures actually. Lagoon updated its designs over time and has produced some nice looking cats lately.
As our scoring breakdown shows there are compromises to be made with the 42 namely in performance and to a lesser extent aesthetics but. The Beneteau group took over the Jeanneau shipyards in 1996 and handed over the development of the Lagoon brand a legacy of its acquisition to Construction Navale Bordeaux. Comments like these and other similar negative comments about cats.
The Lagoon 450 SporTop is a super impressive combination of performance beauty and refinement. Owners boats for offshore cruising. The SporTop version of the 450 caters for boaters who wish to enjoy the comfort of a catamaran of 45 feet in a more conventional version with a helm post on the bulkhead in place of the flybridge.
Our Bimini integrates seamless into Lagoons world-class design to make it look like to be one unit. Catamaran build quality life expectancy. Just the facts maam.
