Lagoon 450 Flybridge AMARE I
450: SEEING BIGGER
Replacing a catamaran that has come to be seen as a benchmark is no easy task. But the VPLP architects, in partnership with Lagoon and the celebrated Nauta Design studio, have been brilliantly successful in creating the 450. – in terms of accommodation – deck areas – facilities – performance.
EXTERIOR A steering station on the fly bridge with safe access from both sides for perfect visibility and a large sunbathing area. A spacious cockpit, again ideal for sunbathing, on the same level as the galley, with a ventilation panel. A second cockpit, making best use of the forward area. Particularly safe and effective transom platforms for coming aboard or accessing the tender.
PERFORMANCES « 19 days! Maybe not a “Route du Rhum” time, but nevertheless a very creditable performance for a voyage from La Rochelle to Pointe à Pitre (3477 miles) in a strictly standard Lagoon 450.” » Jean-François Tanguy, professional skipper – February 2011 « The sailplan gives the boat enough power to remain fast and dynamic in a wind of less than 10 knots. » Multicoques magazine, FR / Multihulls World, UK-January 2011
INTERIOR Interior design by Nauta: elegance and functionality saloon and cabins exceptionally well lit. Natural light in cabins thanks to large glazed panels on hulls. Truly luxurious and comfortable cabins with a side access to the double bed. “U”-shaped galley for greater comfort at sea, equipped with large hot plates, broad work space and plenty of storage.
