Lagoon 570 Buyer's Guide
Shopping a used Lagoon 570 on the brokerage market means weighing a 57-foot, 30-foot-beam catamaran that split its production life evenly between private and charter ownership according to the builder's own tally. The four original layouts were optimized for private or charter use, each available with or without a skipper's cabin, and the boat's teak-finished volume still reads as a premium liveaboard today.
Layouts on the Used Market
Charter four-cabin versions are the more common find among used 570s, though private-oriented layouts exist and ex-charter examples are common. The galley-down arrangement in the port hull gangway appears on most layouts, and the inverted-L companionway doors create the open-plan social space buyers remember from the model. A circular saloon table seats six, with an amidships forward-facing nav station. Teak cockpit sole, twin aft-outboard helms, and seven cockpit lockers define the exterior living area regardless of interior cabin count.
Equipment and Common Upgrades
Used 570s commonly carry the systems a long-distance cruiser needs: solar, watermaker, inverter, autopilot, chartplotter, and life raft are typically fitted. Often-seen additions include lithium batteries, hot water, radar, spinnaker, electric winches, freezer, bimini, and teak decks. For buyer consequence, the power-and-energy cluster — solar with lithium banks and an inverter — lets the boat run high-load comforts without the generator, while the navigation cluster of chartplotter, autopilot, and radar supports offshore passage work. Sail-handling upgrades such as electric primaries and a spinnaker are frequent, and a bimini with teak decks rounds out the comfort theme. Less common but worth noting as owner upgrades are dinghy davits, AIS, and an asymmetric spinnaker.
What to Inspect
The cabin-top window band shows torsional loads moving through the area under sail, which can be heard and felt torsional loads moving through the window area. Confirm whether the example has the optional port-side engine controls; the standard boat has controls to starboard only, which complicates port docking. Saildrive units eliminate shaft logs but deserve normal underwater-gear inspection, and engine access from the top stern step should be verified for locker condition.
Availability and Buyer's Takeaway
Typical markets for the Lagoon 570 include the United States, France, Martinique, Panama, French Polynesia, and Italy. For a buyer, the checklist is straightforward: confirm layout type and charter history, verify port engine controls were added, inspect the window-frame torsion points, and assess the solar-lithium-inverter suite against your cruising plans.
