LAGOON 60 Redefining The 60-foot Sailing Catamaran Experience
23 October 2023
Back
Discover unparalleled luxury with the Lagoon 60, the latest release from Lagoon Catamarans. Boasting an expansive flybridge, saloon bathed in natural light, fluid layouts, and innovative opening side terraces, this 60 footer is unlike anything on the market.
Quentin Beraut, Lagoons Project Manager explains, "The Lagoon 60 will be the link between our 55 and the SIXTY 5, drawing inspiration from both models.” The team integrated the innovative design of the 55's rear half, especially the cockpit area that resonates deeply with the ocean, and blended it with notable features from the Lagoon SIXTY 5, like the forward door, achieving a seamless fusion of the finest elements from both models.
SIDE TERRACES
The Lagoon 60’s aft cockpit seamlessly merges boat and sea, offering over 36 m² of expansive freedom. Its crowning innovation, opening side terraces, invites effortless dives into the ocean while simplifying the boarding process. These terraces, combined with gently inclined aft steps, ensure a harmonious balance of style and functionality. Every moment aboard the Lagoon 60 connects you directly to the horizon and the sea’s embrace.
INTERIOR
The saloon, a nexus of modularity and openness, is bathed in natural light from expansive vertical windows. Whether you desire a galley or bar, the space adapts, encapsulating Lagoon’s promise of connecting spaces, all while maintaining an individual, unique atmosphere. To starboard, the owner’s cabin offers a serene retreat. Illuminated generously, it boasts an ensuite bathroom shielded by sliding doors, ensuring privacy and providing direct access to the aft cockpit.
FLUIDITY
The Lagoon 60, offers an uninterrupted flow from cockpit to foredeck, presenting a singular, levelled expanse. From the saloon, a gateway opens to the forward cockpit, gracing you with panoramic views.
“A vast forward cockpit, flush with the saloon, reinforces the harmony between interior and exterior living spaces.” – VPLP Design.
FLYBRIDGE
The Lagoon 60's flybridge is enormous and incredibly functional, coming close to the size of the SIXTY 5. Spanning a vast area, this space offers ample room for dining, lounging, and a bar, perfect for sunset cocktails. Positioned strategically, the helm station provides excellent visibility, enhancing the boat's manoeuvrability. As Quentin Beraut insightfully remarks, "The flybridge is huge, and it’s one big level space and one of the highlights of this new model."
John Cowpe, TMG Yachts Managing Director, marvels at the innovation, saying, “Larger boats are becoming easier to handle short-handed, reducing the need for crew and maximising privacy onboard. This is something we are seeing the Australian market is looking for and the Lagoon 60 embodies this. This new 60-footer is a testament to forward-thinking design and a game-changer in the sailing catamaran world."
