Lagoon 42

Lagoon 42 – World’s best selling catamaran

The Lagoon 42 sailing catamaran is immediately recognizable by her distinctive Lagoon features: vertical salon windows, foredeck trampoline, integral deck hatches and the efficient, ergonomic helm station that sailors have come to love.

Drawn by naval architects VPLP Design and Patrick le Quément, her good looks, excellent performance and exacting construction standards make this cruiser a winning choice for day sailors and extended bluewater sailing trips alike.

Dream Yacht Sales is proud to present the Lagoon 42, available for UK owners. Our local UK team is available to provide support through the purchase process, from choosing your yacht model and program to planning your first voyage!

Well-rounded performance

Thanks to her mast moved further aft, high-aspect mainsail and self-tacking jib, the catamaran Lagoon 42 has an enhanced performance and ease of handling that easily adapts to all conditions. A focus on weight reduction and optimized weight distribution during design and production further enhances her performance, while the re-centering of weight has resulted in minimal pitching. 

The true sailor will delight in this well-rounded cruising catamaran, built for years of durable and reliable cruising.

Space & fluid movement

Take the wheel from the ergonomic, 2-person helm station with optional bimini top, where all control lines converge for easy sailing. From the helm station, a thoughtfully designed flow allows for convenient communications and access between the aft cockpit, foredeck and new coachroof sunbathing lounge.

The aft cockpit is a highlight of the Lagoon 42, with space that is unprecedented on a boat of her size. Outdoor dining table with wrap-around seating, aft bench seat, and two cushioned loungers make this space supremely livable. Ease of movement is enhanced with the single-level extending from the aft platform through to the salon.

The aft platform and transom steps have been widened creating a generous space for leisure activities and relaxation.

Lagoon 42 interior spaces

The Lagoon 42’s light and bright salon is accented with modern curved wood finishes and combines efficient functionality with sweeping space, storage and worktops throughout. The generously-sized dinette can accommodate your whole crew, and the corner chart table and nav station bring together the ship’s instruments.

The well-equipped, U-shaped galley faces the aft cockpit for convenient access and serving.

Crew will be comfortably accommodated aboard this perfectly-sized cruiser with your choice of three and four cabin layouts. Lagoon 42 specifications include your choice of an efficient 4-cabin/4/bath version perfect for families or charter operations, or the 3-cabin/3-bath version with an impressive owner’s suite. All aft cabins enjoy island double beds, as well as bathrooms with a separate shower.

Yacht Owner

I’ve just come back from my Owner stay in Belize from the Placencia base with my family. It’s a base where I met staff who knew the whole fleet, and did their utmost to keep the equipment in good condition. The atmosphere is very family-oriented, and Yoan and Georges are very helpful, attentive and friendly. Georges knows all his boats by heart. We had a catamaran in very good condition and the pre-departure briefing on everything technical was detailed as never before. Yoan runs the base as if it were his own business, everything for DY, and that’s very rare.

From identifying the correct vessel and arranging finance to organizing surveys and negotiating pre-sale repairs with the seller, you handled everything, while keeping me fully informed and feeling like everything was in hand. Over a year in and I’m still happy.

I want to express my thanks and appreciation to your team. I was able to observe how professional and courteous each and every one of your team was to my wife and I – along with the other charter customers getting ready to depart for their sailing adventures. I also want to say thanks for taking good care of our boat. It has been an active winter and spring charter season for our boat and it still looks brand new and well cared after by your maintenance crew.

We recently bought a catamaran, and as new sailors, we did not realize the magnitude of how complex it would be. Not only did they make the whole process seamless, they made it educational and enjoyable. They mentored us and were adamant in making sure we were informed every step of the way. We’re deeply grateful for their help.

Yacht Owner

I had been thinking for a few years about buying a catamaran, after numerous rentals, so I went to the Grand Pavois and met Gerry Jacob at the Dream Yacht Charter stand. He explained to me perfectly the advantages of the different rental management/boat sales contracts, and I signed for an Astrea 42 the same day. Since then, everything has gone according to plan, I’m delighted and can’t recommend the company enough!
