Price reduced $20,000. Now in Fort Lauderdale, FL

The Lagoon 55 is a large, modern, performance cruising catamaran. They are one of many cruising catamarans designed and built by Jeanneau (JTA, Jeanneau Technique Advances). The designers were Marc Van Peteghem and Vincent Lauriot Prevost who used their knowledge of offshore racing and the latest racing sailboat design technologies to produce a cutting edge cruising catamaran. JTA built numerous catamarans designed by these two designers from 1987 thru 1996, including the Lagoon 37, 47, 55, 57 and 67. About 20 of the Lagoon 55's were built. All were composite (cored sandwich) construction for lightness and strength. The majority were built using fiberglass & epoxy. A few were built using Kevlar and epoxy. This particular Lagoon 55 is constructed in fiberglass and epoxy. The Lagoon 55 is 55 ft LOA and has a 30 ft beam. The waterline length is 50 ft. Draft is just shy of 4 ft. Displacement is 28,600 lbs. They were designed with four private cabins and heads accessible via the saloon and galley, and two private crew or gear storage cabins (forward in the hulls), accessible via deck hatches. They sleep 8-11 people in 4-5 double berths and one single berth. Lagoon 55's are being sailed around the world from the clear blue waters of the Caribbean, Atlantic & Mediteranean to the South Pacific. They have proven to be strong, very fast, comfortable boats with plenty of room for ship's equipment, people and recreational gear.

This particular Lagoon 55 is very special. It is probably the best equipped and best cared for Lagoon 55 in service or for sale today. It has been continuously upgraded in every respect including major refits in 1999 and 2001. She now sports a custom aluminum and fiberglass hardtop/bimini (new 1999), a new aluminum mast & Romar "Leisurefurl" boom (with in-boom furling, both new 2001), new standing and running rigging (new 2001), two new Doyle sails, a Doyle fully battened, furling mainsail and a Doyle furling genoa, (both new 2001). Sail sizes are: 1130 SF main, 484 SF genoa & 300 SF staysail), 1935 SF spinnaker, two new Yanmar 65 HP diesels (both new 1999), a new Fischer-Panda 10 kw 120 vac generator (new 1999), a new HRO 55 gph, watermaker (new 2006), and a new washer/dryer (new 06), new house and starting batteries, (new 6/2008), hauled & bottom painted (2008). You can see the complete and detailed list of equipment and photos in the "Full Specs" section.

This 55 ft catamaran will make it's new owner happy for many years, with her size, comfort, speed, accomodations and amenities, whether she is used for charter or for private use, and whether she is used for regional or world cruising.
