This 52-foot catamaran from the renowned Lagoon Bordeaux factory will suit a couple or family searching for a very solid boat with excellent performance and comfort. The Lagoon 52 is a model Lagoon’s design team perfected, with a strong reputation this model is extremely popular with cruisers and charter operations alike.

Matilda Mia underwent a full refit in 2019/20, new Yanmar Engines and sail drives, new mast and rigging, new water maker, new electronics suite amongst many other improvements make this Catamaran extremely well equipped and ready for Bluewater sailing.

The Lagoon 52 represents a new direction in big boats for this respected French catamaran builder. Using new performance criteria, VPLP Design has created a family of faster vessels that also happen to have dramatic looks and great strength.

The 52 marks a whole new era in the design of cruising catamarans, as indeed did its predecessor, the famed 500. With its diamond-shaped vertical bows, bevelled hulls, its as if levitated deckhouse and tall rig, the 52 is no ordinary catamaran, but its originality goes a great deal further than just its “outer” appearance, or even its interior layout.

This Lagoon is the result of lengthy discussions between the architects at Van Peteghem-Lauriot Prévost (VPLP), the Italian Nauta Design agency and the Lagoon design department. These discussions led us to make some important and sometimes radical choices, while remaining faithful to what we believe in, in terms of elegance, comfort, safety, user friendliness and, it goes without saying, performance under sail.

The boat is accessed via open aft transoms, facilitating boarding and disembarking broad sidedecks, with recessed deck hatches the cockpit is level with the saloon, and has an outdoor lounge and sun-lounging area to starboard the fly bridge is reached either by a staircase leading from the cockpit, or by another leading from the deck on the starboard side the steering station can be adjusted to three different positions (starboard, centre or port), giving the skipper perfect visibility under sail or when manoeuvring.
