The Lagoon 42 represents a defining moment in the evolution of cruising multihulls, successfully bridging the gap between the mass-market appeal of its predecessor, the Lagoon 421, and the high-performance design cues inherited from VPLP’s racing pedigree. Launched at the 2016 Düsseldorf Boat Show, this model was designed by VPLP Design in collaboration with Patrick le Quément for the exterior and Nauta Design for the interior. It quickly became one of the fastest-selling catamarans in history, surpassing the 1,000-unit milestone within a few years of its debut. The boat serves as a middle-ground centerpiece in the Lagoon range, sitting between the more compact Lagoon 40 and the larger, flybridge-equipped Lagoon 46. Unlike its predecessor, which featured more angular lines, the 42 introduced a more curvaceous, organic silhouette and a revolutionary rigging plan that moved the mast further aft to improve balance and handling.
