Lagoon catamaran is a brand of twin-hulled boats that are designed and produced in Bordeaux, France.
The company began in 1984 as a specialist multihull division of Jeanneau, a volume monohull constructor. Jeanneau sold the division to Construction Navale Bordeaux (CNB), which was purchased by Beneteau in 1995, another French boat manufacturer.[1][2][3][4][5]
Lagoon, the world's largest multihull builder with 5800 catamarans produced since 1984,[6] specialises in modern sailing catamarans that are suitable for both coastal and offshore sailing. Most models are available in a charter version and an owner's version.[7] The designers, Marc Van Peteghem and Vincent Lauriot-Prévost at VPLP design, claim to be very responsive to customer feedback, which enables the models to evolve over time.
Lagoon catamarans have been well-received,[8][9][10][11] and the Lagoon 380 has been their most successful model. Lagoon have also produced some power catamarans, including the Lagoon Power 43 and Lagoon Power 44.
Lagoon boats smaller than 50 ft (15 m) are built at Belleville-sur-Vie and launched at Les Sables-d'Olonne in Vendée. Boats over 50 feet long are built at the CNB shipyard in Bordeaux.
By 2021 the company had produced 6,000 catamarans.[12]
