Lagoon America Review

Lagoon America boats can range in price and size, but they all are made to be luxurious trendy, and strong. They’re associated with the French Jeanneau family, which worked with an American company to build cruising catamarans. The company says that it builds its boats to be strong, yet also comfortable. Its vessels include several features to make it be as smooth and as stress free as possible, according to the company.

Jeaunneau once worked with TIP in Rhode Island in the early 1990s to build Lagoon cruising catamarans. Lagoon catamaran hulls are know for having a linear water flow, with the molecules going just as fast on each side. The company says that Lagoon America yachts’ bridgedecks are some of the highest in the industry. High bridge decks are supposed to provide strength and comfort while you’re traveling. The boats are also made to provide safety features that other companies may not offer. For example, the keels are often isolated from the boat interior, so that the boat won’t sink if the keel is damaged.

Lagoon America yachts and boats can vary in price, but they’re generally expensive. A 1992 Lagoon 55 can cost about $600,000, a 1993 Lagoon 55 can cost about $475,000, a 1995 37’ Lagoon can cost about $160,000, a 1998 Lagoon 410 Catamaran can cost about $250,000, a 2006 Lagoon 380 Catamaran can cost about $260,000, and a 2000 Lagoon 380 Catamaran can cost just under $200,000.

Conclusion

The Lagoon America yachts are recognized for several reasons. Their multihull features, their sizeable accommodations, and their proximity with the wealthy Jeaunneau family are just a few of the reasons they’re recognized.

They do not look overly ostentatious, nor are they meant to draw attention in a negative way. However, the company does make them look trendy and modern, and comfortable. Boats such as the Lagoon 37 are made to be available for private ownership, but still, most probably couldn’t afford them.
