New Lagoon 82 foot catamaran: Inside the Lagoon EIGHTY 2

A Luxury Catamaran Designed Around Life on the Water

The Lagoon EIGHTY 2 has been designed to prioritise the owner’s lifestyle.

Every entertaining area flows naturally into the next, creating multiple spaces to relax, dine or socialise without ever feeling crowded. The result is a large sailing catamaran that feels more like a luxury waterfront residence than a traditional yacht.

The combination of expansive decks, oversized windows and flexible layouts creates an incredible sense of openness throughout the vessel, while still maintaining the bluewater capability Lagoon is renowned for.

The Innovative Swim Platform Creates an Entire New Living Space

One of the biggest innovations aboard the Lagoon EIGHTY 2 is its impressive hydraulic swim platform.

When fully deployed, the platform measures approximately 20 square metres, effectively doubling the usable cockpit space while at anchor.

Unlike traditional tender lifts, Lagoon has engineered a clever system where part of the platform lowers before sliding forward hydraulically, allowing the tender to be safely launched or retrieved. Once the tender is away, the entire platform transforms into an enormous waterfront terrace, creating one of the best entertaining spaces you’ll find on any luxury catamaran.

For owners who spend long days at anchor swimming, paddleboarding, or simply relaxing by the water, this feature completely changes how the yacht is enjoyed.

A Cockpit Designed to Be Completely Personal

The aft cockpit continues the philosophy of flexibility.

Lagoon has created a modular outdoor space where owners can customise the arrangement to suit their own cruising lifestyle and fix them in place.

Whether your priority is entertaining, relaxing or alfresco dining, the cockpit can be configured around your needs. Integrated side seating, generous underfloor storage and direct connection to the saloon make this feel like an extension of the interior rather than a separate outdoor area.

Lagoon EIGHTY 2 Interior: Modern Luxury Meets Practical Design

Stepping inside immediately reveals how much attention has been given to both aesthetics and functionality.

Designed by renowned Italian studio Nauta Design, the interior combines contemporary styling with warm finishes, natural light and premium materials throughout.

Large panoramic windows flood the saloon with daylight while creating uninterrupted views across the ocean. Multiple lounge areas provide comfortable places to relax, while a beautifully finished dining space allows guests to move seamlessly between indoor and outdoor entertaining.

A particularly clever addition is the day galley positioned within the saloon. Rather than replacing the main galley below, it functions as a convenient entertaining station complete with refrigeration, sink and serving area, making life on deck even easier.

The Lagoon EIGHTY 2 Owner’s Suite Is a Private Waterfront Apartment

The standout feature of the Lagoon EIGHTY 2 is undoubtedly the owner’s suite.
Occupying its own private sanctuary, this space has been designed as a genuine retreat away from the rest of the yacht.

The suite features a spacious king-size bed, full walk-in wardrobe, dedicated workspace and an oversized ensuite that is considerably larger than any guest bathroom onboard.

Perhaps the most impressive feature is Lagoon’s signature opening hull terrace. At the touch of a button, part of the hull opens to create a private balcony directly above the water, complete with a boarding ladder for immediate ocean access.

Natural light, sea breezes and uninterrupted views combine to create one of the most luxurious owner’s cabins currently available aboard any sailing catamaran.

Flexible Accommodation for Family and Guests

The Lagoon EIGHTY 2 offers multiple layout possibilities depending on owner preferences.

The configuration showcased features:
• One luxurious owner’s suite
• Three spacious VIP guest cabins
• Dedicated crew accommodation
• A fully equipped galley located in the port hull

Each guest cabin features premium finishes, generous storage, large windows and private ensuites, ensuring every guest enjoys the same level of comfort expected aboard a yacht of this calibre.

Lagoon will continue showcasing additional layouts to suit different cruising styles and owner requirements.

One of the Largest Flybridges in Its Class

The flybridge is another area where the Lagoon EIGHTY 2 sets itself apart.

Offering more than 50 square metres of usable space, it is among the largest flybridges available on any luxury sailing catamaran.

Owners can customise the layout with furniture, while a wet bar, barbecue, refrigeration, dining area and multiple sun lounges create another complete entertaining zone.

Forward, twin helm stations provide exceptional visibility down each hull, making docking and close-quarters manoeuvring significantly easier than on many yachts of comparable size. Electric winches and comprehensive Raymarine navigation systems further simplify handling for both owner-operators and professional crew.

A Forward Cockpit Designed for Entertaining

The forward cockpit aboard the Lagoon EIGHTY 2 has been completely reimagined to create one of the most inviting social spaces on board. Unlike previous models, the forward section of the saloon has been recessed, allowing the cockpit to extend further aft and significantly increasing the usable living area. The result is a spacious retreat featuring wraparound seating, generous sun lounges and the option to install a jacuzzi, all while maintaining excellent protection from the elements.

Adding to its practicality, a forward door and lowering servery window provide direct access to the day galley inside the saloon, making it effortless to serve food and drinks without moving through the yacht.

Clean, flush finishes throughout the foredeck enhance both the aesthetics and safety of the space, while the elevated seating position delivers uninterrupted views over the bow. Whether enjoying breakfast at anchor, relaxing with a book or entertaining guests, the forward cockpit is a standout feature that perfectly reflects the Lagoon EIGHTY 2’s focus on luxury outdoor living.

Built for Long-Distance Ocean Cruising

While luxury defines much of the onboard experience, the Lagoon EIGHTY 2 remains, at its core, a serious bluewater cruising yacht.
Its modern sail plan accommodates multiple sail configurations including a genoa, staysail, Code Zero and optional spinnakers, allowing owners to optimise performance across a wide range of conditions.

Wide flush side decks, recessed deck hardware and high bulwarks make moving around the yacht both comfortable and safe during offshore passages.

Twin 230hp John Deere engines, 1,400 litres of fuel capacity and 1,600 litres of freshwater provide excellent autonomy, while optional generators and watermakers allow owners to spend extended periods exploring remote destinations without relying on marina facilities.

The Verdict, A New Benchmark for Luxury Catamarans

The Lagoon EIGHTY 2 is far more than the successor to the Seventy 7.

It represents Lagoon’s most ambitious sailing catamaran to date, combining exceptional living space, intelligent design and genuine bluewater capability into a yacht built for owners who want to explore without compromise.

From its innovative swim platform and expansive flybridge to its spectacular owner’s suite and flexible accommodation, every element has been carefully considered to enhance life on the water.

For anyone searching for the ultimate Lagoon 82 catamaran, the Lagoon EIGHTY 2 sets a new benchmark for luxury sailing catamarans.
