Lagoon Sixty 7

The Lagoon Sixty 7 is a flybridge power catamaran measuring 66'1" (20.15 m) overall on a 32'10" (10.00 m) beam, drawing 4'11" (1.50 m) and displacing 93,338 lbs (42,300 kg) unladen. Accommodation runs to 4-6 Cabins / 4-6 Heads + Crew, with a choice of lateral or central galley, and Lagoon rates her for eight to sixteen people aboard. Tankage is 1,453 gal (5,500 L) of fuel carried in four tanks and 264 gal (1,000 L) of water.

Lagoon built her to do two jobs at once - their own description covers ocean crossings and the pleasures of coastal cruising - and the specification supports both. The hulls carry CE Category A offshore certification for 14 people, while the 4'11" (1.50 m) draft and a published air draft of 26'11" (8.20 m) keep thin water and inside routes on the itinerary. What you end up with is a boat sized for months aboard with family or guests, with dedicated crew quarters in every layout so a captain and mate can join for the longer legs without displacing anyone.

Propulsion is Twin Yanmar (2 x 440 HP), and Lagoon publishes a maximum of 16 knots with a cruise of 12 knots. That is displacement-style pacing rather than sportboat pace, and it is the honest way to read the boat: the Sixty 7 is built to hold 12 knots comfortably all day across a wide, stable platform, not to plane. Twin screws set 32'10" apart also give the kind of low-speed control that makes tight manoeuvring manageable on a 93,338 lbs (42,300 kg) yacht.

The flybridge helm station is laid out specifically to make handling straightforward, which is what keeps owner-operation realistic at this size - though a 32'10" beam is a two-person docking job in any real breeze. Fuel capacity is 1,453 gal (5,500 L), and Lagoon points to that autonomy as what enables longer crossings; how far it carries you depends entirely on speed, loading and conditions, so treat the sea trial on the specific hull as the real answer. Check the 26'11" (8.20 m) air draft against fixed bridges on any inside route you plan to run.

The owner's suite is the Sixty 7's headline. Lagoon builds it around a large walk-in closet, a spacious bathroom and a bedroom they compare to the finest hotels, and at 32'10" (10.00 m) of beam there is genuinely enough volume to make that read as description rather than aspiration. Guest cabins carry their own heads across the 4-6 Cabins / 4-6 Heads + Crew plan, and crew accommodation is separate in every version. Nauta Design handled the interior.

The main living spaces are designed to run together: adjoining interior and exterior areas connect the saloon and the cockpit into one social zone, with glazing sized so natural light does the work. You choose a lateral or central galley, and the lounge can be specified with a coffee table or a standard dining table. Above it, the flybridge is the space that changes how the boat gets used - open to the view, helm forward, and the rest of the deck available standard, with a sunbath arrangement, or with optional loose furniture you rearrange for dinner one evening and lounging the next.

Inside Lagoon's range the Sixty 7 is the entry point to power catamarans: the sailing line runs from the 38 up through the Sixty 5 and the Eighty 2, while the power side is the Sixty 7 and, above her, the 78-foot Eighty 3. That leaves her the smallest and most owner-operable of Lagoon's motor cats, which is precisely her position - enough boat for four to six cabins plus crew quarters, still compact enough at 66'1" (20.15 m) that a capable couple can run her with a captain aboard only for the demanding legs. Against the cross-brand field she is measured on the Fountaine Pajot MY 67, the Aquila 70 and the Leopard 53 PC, and her distinguishing card within that group is the pairing of a 4'11" (1.50 m) draft with CE Category A certification for 14 people: shoal-water access and offshore capability in the same hull.

Buy the Sixty 7 if your cruising is measured in months rather than weekends, the anchorages you want are the shallow ones - the Bahamas banks, the inside routes, the thin-water corners of the Grenadines - and you want four to six cabins plus crew quarters while you are there. Be honest about the beam before anything else: 32'10" (10.00 m) is wider than plenty of 80-foot monohulls, and not every marina in your home grounds can take her without a T-head or an end tie. If you want the same shoal-draft idea stretched to 78 feet with more deck to live on, the Eighty 3 sits above her; and if you want to sail rather than motor, the Sixty 5 is the boat to look at instead - the Sixty 7 is a power catamaran and makes no pretence otherwise.
