Lagoon Yachts has led the way for cruising catamarans and the new 40 is another trailblazing example, as Sam Jefferson discovers.
Upon setting your eyes to the Lagoon 40, its aesthetic beauty that stands out would immediately capture any boater’s attention.
Designed by VPLP, the new cat adopted the styling of her larger siblings, including more angular transoms, longer rectangular hull ports to let light stream in below and a coachroof that flows into an upward-angled composite hardtop, which gives the boat an aggressive look.
Lagoon have just unveiled their new 40 footer with a bold move: the 40 is replacing the 400 and the 39. It is the 40 which has now become the entry-level and introduction model to the Lagoon concept.
The French builder adds a distinctive new look to its range. This latest breed of Lagoons still carries the brand’s vertical saloon windows, but its cabin roofs and Biminis have evolved and now seem to float atop the house.
With the new 2018 Lagoon 40, the French-catamaran builder has created a friendly forty-footer designed to focus on both performance and interior aesthetics.
