Ofcourse the volume of a power catamaran is why you’re here, but with only 150 hours and a draft under 5’, and a white hull, this gives you the space of a 100’ yacht with only one – two crew members required.

In area, Lagoon’s Seventy 8 is the size of a tennis court. But there are far more relaxing activities to be enjoyed aboard the giant ocean roamer.

This, the Lagoon Seventy 8, is the new flagship of the catamaran line, featuring so much living space that it’s more like a penthouse on the water than a boat.

Discovering the SEVENTY 8, you’d think the first impression would be that you’re boarding a boat you know, in this case the Lagoon SEVENTY 7, but just one with the mast unstepped. But as soon as you get aboard, you discover a very different high-end unit.

The Lagoon Seventy 8 super catamaran is the perfect yacht for long-range cruising. The real challenge for Lagoon was to design a yacht that offered cutting-edge solutions for owners looking for motor yachts while meeting the needs and expectations of a new generation of gentleman sailors.

The Lagoon Seventy 8 is 1 inch longer in length and width than the size of a doubles tennis court. Picture sitting center court at Wimbledon: With lifelines placed just outside the service lines, you have an accurate visual of the Seventy 8’s sheer magnitude, which can be difficult for owners of 78-foot-long monohulls to grasp.

The enormous decks of this long-range cruising cat stretch across both the cockpit and bow, and along the length of the sponsons, each a huge expanse dotted with large hatches—five on the port side, seven to starboard—that provide light to the spaces below, as well as air and emergency egress.

Undoubtedly, this 23 metre catamaran, unveiled to the world at the Cannes Yachting Festival, left nobody unmoved. Extremely spacious, she is available in three different cabin layouts. We tested her on the eve of her Atlantic crossing. A journey she planed to achieve without refuelling, thanks to her amazing autonomy at eight knots.

In designing the Lagoon Seventy 8, the real challenge was to develop cutting-edge solutions designed for owners looking for a new generation of large motoryachts. The Seventy 8’s enormous flybridge is fully customizable with features, such as a hot tub, a large foldaway dining table to starboard and a sun lounge forward.
