BIG BOATS GO GALLEY UP
Traditionally we have seen our owners opting for the galley down option, which is undoubtedly an amazing option, equipped with all your homely necessities and connecting to the crew quarters it seems like a reasonable option.
Now things are changing, and we are seeing more people opting for galley up, including our new Australian SEVENTY 8 owners who love to cook and would prefer to do so in the comfort of the living area, just as you would at home.

Living the dream single handed onboard 50ft Lagoon – Mark
After selling his business, Mark Rolle set out to turn his dream of life at sea into reality. His Lagoon 500, Three Little Birds, became his full-time home, carrying him across Australia and the Pacific.
“When I first saw the Lagoon 500, I thought, ‘Wow, that’s a lot of boat.’ But it ticked all the boxes – liveaboard comfort, manageable for one person, and good performance. It’s the perfect way to isolate. I’ve spent nearly every night onboard in the last four years. Deploying the spinnaker is easy. I’ve led all the rigging back to the cockpit, and I’ve got a trip line if I need to depower instantly. It’s seriously changed my sailing experience for the better. I wanted a floating home, and Lagoon delivered.”
