With more than 1,100 hulls launched, the Lagoon 42 was a tough act to follow. In designing its successor, Lagoon Catamarans knew they had to hit it out of the park, so they tossed tradition, took risks, and stretched comfort zones.

I hadn’t considered that; in my thinking cruising means Caribbean or Greek Islands but stateroom-cruising in Canada it’s very big. Larger passenger loaded boats cruise the Trent, Rideau, Thousand Islands and St Lawrence all summer long. Last issue we discussed that this was the summer to do your cruising in Canada.
