The Lagoon 42, with its distinctive style and assertive personality, is a complete, high-performing, and comfortable catamaran.
On the exterior, it offers a spacious cockpit open to the sea, featuring a dining table capable of accommodating numerous guests, a relaxation area, and seating on the aft beam. The ergonomic helm station enables easy communication between the skipper and the crew. The wide aft skirts provide easy access to the dinghy and secure boarding. Additionally, the forward cockpit furnished with a sunbathing area offers additional living space.
The rigging of the Lagoon 42 is designed for enhanced performance. The VPLP hull and increased sail plan ensure a better sail area-to-displacement ratio, making it a fast and seaworthy catamaran. The aft-positioned mast brings numerous advantages, including a self-tacking jib for maneuvering ease, a larger foretriangle offering a broader range of downwind sails, a shorter boom for smoother handling, and a wider upper mainsail for improved performance in less disturbed winds. Furthermore, weight recentering reduces pitching, thereby enhancing stability at sea.

I acquired a catamaran in 2015 from ACV to undertake an Atlantic tour. I was very pleased with the boat, of course, but also with the support provided in preparing for my family journey. Having sold this boat upon my return to land life, I couldn't resist for long and acquired an Oceanis 311 DL in 2018, completely refurbished by ACV. It turned out to be an excellent vessel for a navigation program in Brittany.
