Lagoon 50 - Unveiled in 2017, the Lagoon 50, along with the 40, 42 and 46 represent the latest generation models designed by the world leader in cruising catamarans. When she was first launched, she fitted into the range between the best-selling Lagoon 450 and the 52. Her ambition was to remain accessible to a family crew and offer maximum comfort.
Excess 15 - The Excess range, launched by the Bénéteau Group just over a year ago, stands out from the Lagoon range by its improved performance and attention to the pleasure of sailing. The Excess 15 shares the same chassis as the Lagoon 50, and this allows us to make relevant comparisons between the two models.

LAGOON 50
50 feet - or almost - and nearly 8 tons of payload: the characteristics of the Lagoon 50 make it an ideal craft for blue water cruising with all the comforts. But is such a unit of more than 20 tons lightship weight still manageable by a family? This is indeed the objective set by the builder. While larger models are most often entrusted, in practice, to a professional skipper, the Lagoon 50 is well designed to be manageable for a family crew.
Test location: El Arenal, Majorca - Spain
Conditions: Southeast 5 to 10 knots, Sea state: slight
