Lagoon presents the brand new Lagoon 43

by Lagoon Catamarans 5 Apr 2024 11:13 BST

Lagoon is committed to offering you a generous, enjoyable, convenient life on board. The Lagoon 43 is the promise of memorable moments at sea, with a catamaran that adapts to suit all preferences.

Cruising as a couple, with family or with friends, this catamaran will win you over. Designed and engineered to be adaptable, by nature!

A catamaran featuring ease of movement
An additional access, unique on the market

For this new model, Lagoon has redesigned access to the catamaran by creating an additional aft entryway for each hull. This innovative solution facilitates movement between the boat and the dock, combining comfort and safety to promote well-being on board.

With its unique signature design, the new access is perfectly integrated into the lines of the Lagoon 43.

The Lagoon 43 features a key strength of the Lagoon brand: perfectly fluid movement on board, with the aft transoms separated from the cockpit by a single step, reinforcing ease of movement and the connection between living spaces.

"There is, especially, this access on board facilitated by a cutout in the hull, for an ease of movement that was previously unknown, designed to integrate harmoniously into the lines that frame the windows in the hulls. This new access on board combines a functional feature with a more emotional touch: its proximity with the sea is its true splendor. It is there, in the aft cockpit, that I can imagine myself daydreaming..." - Patrick Le Quement.

A generous catamaran
Livability: volume and space

The new hull form of the Lagoon 43 features generous interior volumes-as well as larger berths, with greater dimensions in every cabin-offering unprecedented living space for a boat in this category.

In the Owner's Cabin, a large forward berth with an en suite head and shower aft provides increased living space and generous storages. This layout is similar to those found aboard much larger yachts. All living areas are brightly lit, thanks to an interior turned toward the exterior, with a 360 degrees view.

With a panoramic view of the exterior, moments spent inside are reinvented. Space for fluid movement in the saloon invites exchanges and gatherings.

"We took on the challenge of designing hulls that bring a real contribution to the living space in the cabins, while conserving the boat's seaworthy qualities. The emotions we wanted to evoke from Lagoon customers were multiple.
We wanted to offer large, modular living spaces, adaptable to various situations, whether cruising or at anchor, on a reasonably sized boat that is easy to handle. The goal was also to bring continuous contact with the marine environment, with large windows in the hull, large glass panels, safe access to the sea, and enjoyable areas for relaxation. This catamaran reflects the usual high standards of Lagoon." - VPLP Design

An adaptable catamaran
In and out: a concept with numerous configurations

Lagoon has reimagined life on board, presenting a versatile boat with modular boundaries. This advance makes it possible to transform the space, connecting the interior and the exterior, the saloon and the cockpit, according to preference.

Create numerous arrangements quickly and easily, with a dining table able to accommodate up to 12 people. An inviting new living area is formed for gathering and sharing a moment together with family or with friends.

"On the main deck, the sliding glass door and the dining/café area are designed in such a way as to allow you to arrange the dining table in various configurations: 6 seats on the interior, or 6 seats on the exterior, in the cockpit. Or 8 to 12 seats in a configuration that we call 'inside out. This solution combines the sofas in the cockpit with those of the interior dining area, so that in all conditions, in the summer, you can enjoy the exterior and interior spaces combined, as one large space, and thus not have to compromise at all, on the interior or on the exterior." - Nauta Design
