The lagoon 42 was our thoughts for a long time but ended up ordering an FP Isla for at least 4 seasons in the med. If we decide to world cruise then it might not be very suitable.
@@SailingOceanFox not enough storage , no nav table at all. It will sail around the world but I think a 45 will give you a better ride with the extra waterline length and storage. Might change my mind when we are on it. It will be perfect for our initial plans.
@@rodwaski oh I see, absolutely true, the bigger the better and much more stable on big seas. The longer is your journey the “more toys” you have so yes storage is really important. The reason we want to go bigger is because the boat will behave better on bigger seas across the oceans. But having said that the Lagoon 400 we had did pretty well under stress. When you will get your boat?
Hi guy's nice to see you looking at boats again. Maybe it's just me, but these vessels don't seen to look very comfortable...not as nice as your Cat was. Just saying, take care and be safe chow. 😎👍💥
The rig arrangement is a huge advantage and improvement. A smaller main and larger foresails is much more manageable in strong winds and for cruising generally. You need to focus on this and the sailing elements of all these boats in your reviews/ observations, not just the number of fridges etc. On Lagoons, I notice they all seem to creek a bit underfoot eg when you walk across the saloon. Not good; comments?

We have seen people around world cruising on the FP Isla, why do you think that wouldn’t be suitable for world cruise?

You should look at the Fountaine Pajot. I don't know what your budget is, but know where there is 2018 Helia 44 owners version for sale. $599,000.00
We like them but unfortunately not on our budget. Cheers

Thank you Jerry, this one is a bigger version of the one we had but we didn’t really like it. Anyway we are still dar away from finding “the one”.

Best selling cruising cat in the world. And what do you own again? lol
Expecting the world of a 40 cat, you need a 50 and are budget stuck trying out 40s?
Sorry you don’t like my help hope you stay away from Lagoon Cat.
Help is always good Greg, we are just shopping around and see what’s on the market. Cheers
@@SailingOceanFox Simon please be safe and take great Care of Carla.
