Measuring 11.74 meters in length with a beam of 6.76 meters and a shallow draft of 1.22 meters, the Lagoon 40 ensures stability and accessibility to shallow anchorages.

With a 300-liter fuel capacity and highly efficient propulsion systems, this catamaran is built for extended cruising with reduced emissions. A generator and inverter provide consistent electrical supply, supporting systems such as air conditioning and electronics. Noise insulation ensures a quiet and relaxing onboard atmosphere, even while underway or at anchor.
