When asked what they love about their Lagoon Matt said, “We had a monohull before we bought our cat… there’s the stability, livability, room and ability to entertain and despite having a reputation for not being a brilliant sailor most Lagoons get along really well and I think we surprise a lot of people we sail with. It is the nature of cruising you meet people, you cruise with them a while and then you part ways. I think we pleasantly surprise people with how well our Lagoon gets along. So you’ve got that great mix of comfort and performance, it’s quite good in its way. We love our Lagoon for both those things.”

Lanaia added, “Living onboard our Lagoon, it has some amazing space… the stability… I think it’s just provided us with a home, to be able to do what we are doing. This lifestyle is a very different lifestyle to what most people live, so it provides us with that amazing home away from a normal home. We have been very lucky to have this experience and to enjoy it and to enjoy the East Coast of Australia and the amazing people and sights that are here.”

In regards to TMG Yachts and the Escapade, Matt wanted to say, “We would be remiss not to thank TMG Yachts and the organisers, in the last couple of years Rowan and Robert have been the leads in the Escapade and they have done a great job. TMG Yachts has been great ambassador’s for the brand, dealers of the year a couple of years in a row and it’s easy to see why. You get great support from the dealer network but in Australia, it’s the next level. Organisations of events such as the Escapade has really made a huge difference for us, getting to come here, meet the people, make a lot of friends, it’s really made a huge difference to our time here in Australia.”
