Lagoon 380sII - world's most popular catamaran

by Helen Taylor on 4 Jul 2006 The Lagoon 380sII is world's most popular catamaran and 405 have been handed over to date.

In fact Lagoon Catamarans have the distinction of producing the world’s top two catamarans in the Lagoon 380 and the Lagoon 410.

Lagoon has grown rapidly over the last 20 years to become the largest Catamaran company in the world with over 35% of the global catamaran market - Australians are now beginning to jump on board and get involved with this fantastic brand of Multi-Hull.

The Lagoon 380sII is the biggest volume catamaran in its category, allowing families to enjoy loads of interior and exterior space (huge cockpit) with friends and relatives, sleeping 8 people and there are 2 bathrooms from which to choose.

The 380sII is family friendly with big boat space but has the feel and handling of a small boat making it easy to sail and maintain without the need for extra crew, even if taking it offshore.

For enthusiasts wishing to venture further a-field on ocean going passages, the 380sII will keep owners well stocked as it has a huge ability for storage of equipment and supplies.

Lagoon ensures that the interior finishes are superior, even on their small cats like the 380sII, where luxury comes as standard.

Vertical windows allow full headroom in the saloon and a real sense of space which reduces the UV coming through the windows keeping the temperature down and reducing wear on the windows.

Lagoon is the first catamaran company to really maximise the volume in the interior - especially in each hull, without compromising the passage making ability of the boat and allowing her to be a load bearing vessel.

Lagoon leads the world with innovation – an example of this is the new Lagoon 420 coming standard with electric engines which will be launched next year.

The Lagoon 570 'Dada V' was first over the finishing line of the ARC in the multihull class of 21 competitors. 'Dada V' was 17th of the 212 boats of all categories taking part in the rally to arrive at St Lucia. On corrected time, the Lagoon 55 'Alkedo' finished 3rd, two Lagoon 410sII and one Lagoon 380 were amongst the first 10 boats.

From Family Cruising, Passage making and Arc Racing, there is a range of models from Lagoon that fit into any sailors requirements.

The Lagoon 380sII will be shown at Sydney International Boat Show, August 3rd to 8th 2006.
