“Jenny and I have to thank everyone, during our elongated gestation period, for not only your exceptional support but also your friendship. So a big thank you to TMG for delivering on all their undertakings.”
Buying a catamaran and deciding to wrap up your life on land to sail the world is a life-changing decision, one made a little harder when caught up amongst the pandemic and uncertainty it caused.
So we turned to new Lagoon owners Ian and Jackie who put together an incredible story to give you the reality of what this experience was really like for them.
After a fabulous weekend on Sydney Harbour showing off this brand new Lagoon 42 it was time to sail back to Pittwater.
With expected westerly winds of 20-25kts it was definitely a shock for Claire who had never sailed before when we experienced gusts up to 32kts.
Pierre Skinner, an Aussie Lagoon owner answers what his favourite thing about his boat is and what he would say to anyone who is thinking about buying a catamaran.
This liveaboard Lagoon Catamaran owner from Denmark loved Australia so much that he wanted to share his world trip sailing stories with us.
Kerry and Bryn Wellington own a Lagoon 450, Nautilus and have been sailing the East Coast of Australia onboard over the last few years. They love the volume of their catamaran and the ability to store all their toys including kitesurfing, diving and paddleboarding gear.
In 2021 Lagoon released a range of upgrades on the best selling Lagoon 42 including; helm seat, Aft cockpit seat and Cockpit fridge.
Lagoon 40 owners Caroline and Sven are currently sailing the world after recently picking up Kwilena in France, “We had no idea that we would like living onboard full-time this much. For now home really is where our anchor drops and we cannot imagine going back to a normal life. We are definitely infected with the travel bug.”
A wave of new boat handovers on Sydney Harbour and beyond.
We took the Lagoon 42, 450 and 46 for a shakedown sail, enjoy!
This was my (Marnie’s) first ever offshore sailing adventure on a catamaran and first experience doing overnighters. I decided to film as much as I could to give you an inside look into what these kinds of non-stop journeys really look like so you can decide whether it is something you would be interested in doing.
Matt and Lanaia Donkin own a 40ft Lagoon, Espresso and liveaboard in Australia. This Canadian couple has loved their on-water adventure of the East Coast, especially their annual trips to the Whitsundays for the Lagoon Escapade. The Donkins discuss why they love their Lagoon including performance, comfort, stability and space.
Another spectacular event in the Whitsundays! 19 boats and 50 attendees joined to celebrate the love of Lagoon Catamarans over the course of 2 days in the Whitsundays.
Team Members John, Nicky, Marnie and Gammo, took off on an exciting adventure south from Tweed Heads to Sydney onboard the Lagoon 42 to deliver the vessel back to her owners for the summer.
Join us on this journey reaching 14.5kts overnight and make a record time of only 48hrs!
Coblis resident John Cowpe and Joe Fox took 3 Cobli owners on the delivery they will never forget.
Here is the story of the trip North in the words of Cobli owner, Stewart.
These Lagoon 40 owners recently took delivery, “We decided to stick to our schedule and pick up our Lagoon 40 in Les Sables-d’Olonne in early March despite the uncertainty surrounding the current worldwide pandemic and the lockdown in France (curfew in France is 7 pm).”
The incredible story of a young family that left Cape Town, South Africa to sail the world… It has been the biggest adventure of our lives. We say it is a “bucket list adventure being checked off one experience at a time”.
“I couldn’t fault the TMG network and what we were able to do and how everyone was easy to get on with. The actual handover period… was fantastic. We sat on the boat for the first day and went through everything. It was a great learning experience, and then out sailing the next day. Making sure everything worked properly. It was a fantastic thing to do and I can’t speak highly enough about that actual process.” Paul Brown – Lagoon 42
This year for the 2020 Lagoon Escapade our Queensland manager Rowan McMahon was fortunate enough to attend the event by boat instead of staying onshore. What made this year even more special was to bring his wife Kylie and 5-year-old son Spencer along for the event to help setup and also enjoy some time in their old home of the Whitsundays.
