One of the most successful sailing vessels for bare charter ever...

An escape from the routine!

Catamaran is ready to sail in the Greek islands!

LAGOON 440 sailing Catamaran is ideal for sailing holidays comfortably accommodating 10 guests in 4 cabins, 2 heads and 10 berths and is chartered bareboat or with Skipper. This catamaran has a well protected helm with panoramic visibility which makes docking and maneuvering in any situation relatively effortless. The interior of this catamaran yacht is ergonomically designed and very comfortable and is built to meet the highest standards while employing some new innovations in catamaran design and achieves both comfort and performance.

Why design a boat of 44 feet?

The search for comfort is a priority: whether one is vacationing on board, or chartering a boat for just one week a year, or whether one is lucky enough to live aboard all year round, the factory research on critical issues such as seating ergonomics, space, spread of storage compartments, ease of maneuverability, is the guarantee of successful cruising. At 44', a reasonable cost, and offering immense space, the Lagoon 440 targets two distinct customer bases: ocean cruisers with an emphasis on performance and ultra comfort within a controlled budget, and the charter market with or without skipper.

What evolutions, and why?

A simple glance at the boat is enough to notice its main distinguishing characteristic: a rigid bimini, with an integral helm station. The percentage of catamarans now equipped with biminis has practically reached 100%, and so it is logical for Lagoon to propose a built-in and much more esthetically pleasing solution. A simple rigid bimini would have satisfied many customer expectations, however we preferred to place the helm station at its ideal central location, with an extra-wide bench seat where guests can join the helmsman and participate in the joys of sailing.

For safety, Lagoon studied in great detail the access to the helm station, and led one of the mainsheet ends into the cockpit, for easy quick release in the case of emergency. The helm station is surrounded by all the sail control lines, reefing included, so that one person can easily handle all the maneuvers.

Simplified access to the water via the port side stern section, as already seen on the Lagoon 410, has been further refined, and linked to an aft passageway that allows one to cross from one side to the other without passing through the cockpit.

Inside, the galley is similar to that of the Lagoon 380, with a large serving shelf extended towards the cockpit, a countertop surface worthy of one found in a house, and storage everywhere, including a big cookware locker. While the layout remains classic, the salon presents a space and shape studied carefully to associate practicality with ergonomics: the seats are more comfortable, access and movement is easy, and the factory has striven to anticipate installation all of the options that such a vessel could require.

The guest cabins on the port side (identical to those on starboard in the charter version) each come with their own washroom, where once more all details have been carefully studied for maximum comfort.

Centered between the salon and the cockpit is a machine room, for the generator with sound-shield, plus the battery charger and the inverter, while the engine compartments, are accessible from the stern, thus keeping the engines perfectly isolated from the aft cabins.

So while all of these innovations make the Lagoon 440 an original design, it still remains attached to traditional Lagoon values : a seaworthy vessel, safe, fast, comfortable, luxurious, where woodwork is predominant. Resolutely facing the future: absolutely LAGOON.
