Lagoon 40

STARTED FROM THE BOTTOM features enhanced performance features. Her larger sail plan ensures a better sail surface/displacement ratio, making her a fast and seaworthy boat. A decision to move the mast further aft, arose directly from the builders experience in racing, it offers many advantages on this catamaran. For ease of handling, the 40 has a self-tacking jib and a shorter boom. For more performance, the 40 has a large foretriangle offering a greater choice of foresails and a high-aspect mainsail, enabling use of less disturbed air higher up.

On deck, space and comfort are combined with a new aft cockpit layout. This space is open to the sea, with a dining table to port that can accommodate up to twelve guests, a relaxation area on the same side, and a seat on the aft crossbeam. The ergonomic helm station can be accessed from the cockpit or the deck, affording continuous communication between the helmsman and the rest of the crew. The skirts are wide, with a large platform, to enjoy the sea with feet in the water as well as to facilitate access to the dinghy and enable an easy and safe climb aboard.

Below decks, elegance and natural light are the watchwords! The selection of sophisticated materials, by Nauta Design, enhances a warm and modern style. STARTED FROM THE BOTTOM is an "owner's version" with a 3-cabin layout. The owners hull is to port with a luxurious stateroom aft, an office and storage area mid-hull and a spacious head compartment forward. The 40 can satisfy all the requirements of owners and families. Very large hull glazings with integral portholes for the cabins provide exceptional light and a magnificent exterior view. The special attention devoted to the distribution of space, flowing circulation and natural lighting make this new interior a truly pleasant living area.
