A few days ago, the new Lagoon 83 was unveiled in Bordeaux. As a specialist in this field ,having worked and still working on large Lagoon catamarans.I have my own perspective on this model.
In my opinion, the 83 is largely a refined evolution of the very successful L78. The most noticeable changes have been made to the interior. It’s difficult to say whether they are entirely for the better ,there is slightly more space, along with a new palette of colors and materials.
At the stern, the rear sofa has been removed, creating a large open area that was previously missing. The tender platform, now folding in two sections, is certainly an innovative solution.I haven’t seen this implemented by competitors yet. Of course, time will tell how it performs in everyday use.
The saloon windows surrounding the yacht have been raised by approximately 10 cm, improving both visibility and natural light. The forward cockpit area has also gained additional space thanks to the repositioning of the forward saloon doors.
The flybridge roof and boom are now made of carbon, which should contribute positively to the yacht’s overall stability.
On the downside, at first glance I noticed that the boarding ladder mounting system has not been improved. I experienced issues with this on the 77 and 78 models, and it is surprising that the engineers have not opted for a simpler and more cost-effective solution. It remains a weak point.
As for propulsion, the yacht continues to be powered by John Deere N13 engines, delivering 580 HP each. From experience, I can say that with half fuel tanks, in good conditions (no headwind and relatively flat seas), at around 900 rpm the yacht cruises at approximately 8.5 knots, consuming about 20–25 L/h. The yacht’s range is excellent — I personally crossed the Atlantic from Gibraltar ,Canaries,Cabo Verde to Guadeloupe on L78 without any additional fuel, using only what fit in the tanks. Now it’s time for the return trip from Sint Maarten via the Azores and Gibraltar. In my view, this offers a very quiet, comfortable, and capable ocean-going experience.
Overall, I would rate this model positively. While competitors are making bold and aggressive changes to their yacht designs, Lagoon is clearly following an evolutionary rather than revolutionary approach.

To put it simply.What is the visual difference between an iPhone 10 and an iPhone 16? Not dramatic. The same applies here. I believe this yacht will be well appreciated by true connoisseurs.

Congratulations to Lagoon on this release. If you are looking for understated, neutral luxury — you are definitely in the right place.

Delivering a yacht to the Caribbean is not just a long transfer. For those doing it for the first time, it’s the adventure of a lifetime. Today’s reward, caught right in the middle of the Atlantic, straight from the deck of Lagoon 46!

Something new is coming 😀 We’re not sleeping

The Lagoon 60 is a completely new creation in Lagoon’s lineup, not a scaled version of the Lagoon 55 or 65. It introduces fresh architectural and technical solutions that redefine luxury multihull design, while retaining Lagoon’s signature emphasis on comfort, safety, and performance.
Technical Specifications
The Lagoon 60 measures 19.77 m (64’10”) in overall length, with a beam of 9.87 m (32’5”) and a draft of 1.65 m (5’5”). Its light displacement stands at around 35.2 tons, and construction uses vacuum-infused polyester with a balsa core for optimal rigidity and weight reduction. With an air draft of 30 meters, it remains manageable for a 60-foot-class catamaran.[lagoon-catamaran +2]
The yacht is powered by twin 150 HP Yanmar diesel engines, offering reliable cruising power. The fuel tank capacity totals 1,300 liters, and freshwater tanks hold 960 liters. Upwind sail area is 222 square meters (2,389 ft²), providing excellent balance between ease of handling and sailing performance.[europeanyachtbrokers +3]

World Premiere of the Lagoon 82 – Redefining Luxury at Sea

At the Cannes Yachting Festival, the world premiere of the brand-new Lagoon 82 took place – a yacht that combines proven design with modern elegance. Building on the renowned Lagoon 77, the new model is a true facelift, bringing a fresh and contemporary look to a timeless classic.

The hull remains the same, but a series of upgrades make a significant difference:
• larger panoramic windows for more light and breathtaking views,
• a redesigned, functional tender platform,
• an open transom in the cockpit, expanding the leisure area,
• refined details and finishes that create a whole new sailing experience.

The Lagoon 82 is more than just a yacht – it is the epitome of modern luxury, offering aesthetics, ergonomics, and comfort at the highest level.

LAGOON 38
The Small Great Lagoon 38.
Who says you need a floating palace to sail in comfort? The Lagoon 38 packs a surprising punch: a roomy owner’s cabin, two double guest cabins, a generator, air conditioning – sounds like a luxury yacht, right? Well, surprise – it all fits into this “little”catamaran.

Add a watermaker, and you’re ready to sail off into the sunset… or across the Atlantic, if you’re feeling adventurous.

After a dozen ocean crossings myself, I can honestly say – I’d trust this boat to get me to the other side with style (and cold drinks in hand 😉. Small in size, big in spirit – this boat’s got attitude.

We’re always on the move.
Sometimes bigger yachts, sometimes smaller – but always with passion. We sail a lot and advice a lot.Because the sea is not just our job – it’s our home.

One of the newest creations from the Lagoon shipyard – the Lagoon 43.
It is the direct successor to the highly regarded Lagoon 42.
We’ll see if it can repeat the success of the previous model.
