Laguna 50

DESCRIPTION

This latest boat is the ideal balance between the emblematic 450 and 52 versions. It offers an enticing choice for navigators looking for a large «seaworthy and new» owner’s boat. Its new visual identity, rigging, and hull design deliver improved performance, including a distinctive brand signature. Indeed, thanks to the beveled shape of its hulls, generous volumes, and panoramic views, the charm of the 1950s is more than ever enhanced. This new model is available with exclusive accommodation options in three, four, or even … six cabins!

External: relaxed and practical.

A flybridge with two safe accesses and a helm station gives excellent visibility. And behind the helm station, a large modular recreation area conceals a storage area large enough to accommodate all the cushions.

A wide-open cockpit facing out to the sea, large stern skirts provide easy access to the boat, and a large flexible dining area with adjustable bench seats for children and adults alike.

A second cockpit for the foredeck’s further enjoyment with dual function: seat or deck chair position, flush with the forward trampoline.

Ample storage room under most of the cockpit and flybridge seats.

Interior: generous volumes and visibility

The spacious layout shows a revolutionary architecture where every detail has been crafted to create a cozy, homely atmosphere. The design allows everyone to choose their preferred accommodation layout, with three, four, five, or even six cabins!

A revolutionary two-story saloon design, offering two separate yet communicative areas: a wide galley is opening into the cockpit on one side, and a slightly elevated lounge area for enhanced panoramic vision, which can be converted quickly into a dining area if desired.

With modern, elegant, and intricate wood, a revolutionary interior design is personalized by the owner.

Remarkable contact between the interior and the exterior: the central panoramic windscreen is retractable and is suitable for the ventilation of both the saloon and the cockpit. This makes it possible to communicate with the forward region.

Volume and comfort in the hulls with careful attention to storage space: cabins with an «Island bed» up and down, large storage volumes, hanging lockers, and open bookcases.

Large fresh and black water tanks, located underneath the floorboards, provide considerable space. Gray water tanks are optional to comply with environmental requirements.

The rigging of a new generation: efficiency and simplicity

The decision to shift the mast step further aft, which derives directly from the experience of VPLP in competitive sailing, gives this catamaran a range of advantages:

• A self-tacking jib for more straightforward maneuvers.
• A big forward triangle for a wider option of downwind sails: a guarantee of success,
• A shorter boom for faster maneuvering.

With a high aspect ratio, the mainsail allows better airflow to be captured in the sail’s upper part for optimized efficiency.

Thanks to the rear positioning of the rigging, the re-centering of weight significantly decreases the boat’s pitch.
