The sheer comfort abroad is impressive whether in port or at sea.
Her 215 square feet of teak lined cockpit offers a spacious leisure and relaxation area. The central table can seat up to ten in comfort. No shortage of elbow room down below either ; four huge double cabins each with bookshelves, easy chair, hanging and stowage lockers, and a head with a washbasin, shower facility and toilet. The fully fitted galley also has ample provision for stowage. Add to this a performance hull, a suit of competition sails, the best in terms of on board safety, and a wealth of technology directly adopted from blue water racing multihulls, and you will understand why the LAGOON 57 is the stuff dreams are made of, even for the most demanding of yachtsmen.
