Lagoon Sixty 5, the simplest of luxury catamarans

The Lagoon Sixty 5 is a luxury catamaran. Elegant and racy, she assures her owner comfort and performance. The ideal size to go far away and for a long time with the family without the need for a large and expensive crew.

There's no doubt about it: the longer a catamaran is, the sleeker it becomes. Such is the case with the silhouette of the Sixty 5 (65 feet or 20.55 m). Designed by VPLP (for the hulls), with an elegant design (by Patrick le Quément) and imaginative decoration (Massimo Gino - Mario Pedol for interior design), this Lagoon Sixty 5 gives you wings and the desire to take to the open sea aboard.

This catamaran is designed for owners who want to sail for long periods with a small crew. In fact, in this size, you can either be assisted by a sailor who will help with maneuvering and boat maintenance, or by a skipper who will manage the entire sailing operation.

The Sixty 5 offers a wide range of living spaces on board. The forward cockpit, accessible from the saloon, is particularly pleasant at anchor, as it's always well ventilated. The aft cockpit, on the other hand, is protected from the wind by the deckhouse and from the sun (or rain!) by the cockpit hat. This cockpit measures no less than 36 m2... You can also lounge on the fly (29 m2), where the 2 helm stations are located. This fly can be fitted out with a large dining table or a lounge area with bench seating. Below, the saloon measures 30 m2. These surface areas clearly demonstrate the size and living space offered by these unusual units.

Imagined and designed with the same level of luxury as its big brother, the Lagoon Seventy 7, the Sixty 5 offers a wide choice of layouts. The galley can be located in the port hull, with a dining area for the crew and direct access to the cockpit. Or, for a more family-oriented solution, the galley can be located in the saloon. The number of cabins ranges from 4 to 6. This modularity allows owners to design their catamaran according to their main program and sailing style.

This luxury is based on the Bordeaux shipyard's craftsmanship and experience in building cruising catamarans. Soundproofing and manufacturing quality guide the design of the fittings to ensure that crew members feel comfortable on board.

But this luxury and comfort have not been achieved at the expense of performance under sail. Without offering extreme speeds, which is not the aim of a cruising yacht, the Lagoon Sixty 5 ensures good average speeds (around 10 knots), which on long stopovers reduces sailing time while maintaining comfort and life on board.

Sleeping arrangements include double beds and bunk beds for children. But above all, the cabins remain independent, with even a master suite with its own exit in the starboard aft skirt. Direct access from the bed to the bathing area...

The entire steering system is located forward of the flybridge. So the crew can take part in the maneuvering and not get in the way while enjoying the sunshine. Easy to use, the ergonomics have been designed so that this yacht can be maneuvered with just one skipper on board.
