The new Lagoon 42 catamaran picks up the main features of the last generation of catamarans from the builder, with vertical bows, a coachroof which appears ‘suspended’, and a rig positioned well aft. In addition to improving the boat’s trim, this new rig frees the forward end of the nacelle of the mast support, and thus allows a totally uninterrupted, 360° view of the anchorage. It also makes sail handling easier, with a narrow mainsail and a self-tacking jib. Finally, its large fore triangle offers many possibilities for headsails to boost its performance.The builder is offering its catamaran in 3 or 4 double cabin versions, all equipped with a private heads and elegantly designed. Cabins whose beds have side access and which place the emphasis on light. Ventilation has been particularly carefully thought-out.Discover it from January 2016...
