VIDEO - 16 knots aboard a catamaran Lagoon 42

Can a family catamaran be a performing and exciting sea cruiser ? Demonstration with the new Lagoon 42...

16 knots aboard a family cat, is that really possible, without having to buy a sport model ? 

It is ! Demonstration with the first Lagoon 42 ever built, first displayed at the Boot Düsseldorf 2016, sailing 16.5 knots, enroute from Miami to the Bahamas, in 22 knots of wind.

16 knots, but with a delightful comfort, "catamaran oblige", but with optimal weather conditions, and a powerful spinaker !!
