Test / Accommodation and life on board the catamaran Lagoon Sixty 7, from XXL to a la carte

The layout of the Lagoon Sixty 7 catamaran offers a very large volume on all levels, inside and out. The combination of versions and finishes are in line with the brand's ambitions for great pleasure boating.

In the port of Barcelona, the Sixty 7, in her Burgundy hull colour, is very imposing and is much larger than her size. As you climb aboard, the feeling of space is immediate. With no less than 120 m² of interior space and practically the same outside, there's no shortage of space to spend some very pleasant moments on the water. There is plenty of space in every part of the boat, with a special mention for the front beach, which can be accessed through a front door from the saloon, where it will be possible to hold nice receptions. The circulation from one place to another is very fluid, with sometimes a double access as for the kitchen or the owner's suite, for the greatest comfort of the passengers.

To each his version

With a 16 m² master suite comprising a double washbasin and separate toilet, three guest cabins and a 12 m² bunk-bed cabin juxtaposed to the galley for a crew of up to four people and including a chef, the amenities for six guests are well respected. But there will also be the possibility of having six guest cabins quite equivalent for a more cheerful luxury charter version accommodating twelve people with a smaller crew, then staying in the forepeaks. In between these two extremes, a configuration suitable for the closest expectations with four or five cabins will be configurable with twin beds and/or master suite.

Very careful ergonomics

Nautical constraints that may seem inconvenient for comfort are skillfully circumvented. The king size beds in the cabins are at normal height (70 - 80 cm) thanks to an interior step and a pronounced seagull wing under the gondola which allows a good passage at sea. The staircase going up to the fly is straight and gently sloping, well belted with handrails. Same for the descent into the cabins. Each place has its own refrigerator for fresh drinks whether you are on the fly, on the foredeck or in the aft cockpit. The only small drawback is the absence of daytime toilets, which are very practical to avoid having to go into the passenger cabins for guests outside the boat. However, this equipment is still offered on the motor yachts it competes with. The hydraulic platform, which houses a 4.60 m tender, provides superb access to the water when lowered.

A decoration with a muffled atmosphere

In order to facilitate the choice of wood species, fabrics, sheers, upholstery, lingerie and saddlery; atmospheres have been imagined for both indoors and outdoors. Three wood finishes, Light Oak or Grey Oak and Walnut are accommodated with pre-established "Nomad", "Pure" or "Fusion" decors as well as a combination developed in partnership with Sunbrella, among dozens of possible references. The 24 hours on board concept, inspired by the influences of light and sunlight during the day, guided the choice of five different atmospheres, but there is no such thing as a truly unique boat. LEDs run through the equipment and shelves to create a cosy atmosphere and the ceiling lights are fitted with the "Iguzzini" black light that brings out the colours without radiating. The audio and television system is also featured in all cabins and in the saloon. The "signature sound system" option developed by "Waterfall" especially for the Sixty 7 is worthy of recording studios. In the saloon the giant screen swivels from the ceiling, while in the cabins it rises from the chest of drawers in front of the bed. Everything, absolutely everything, is done to remind you of the soft, cosy atmosphere of the most beautiful hotels. The exteriors are not to be outdone with the "Tribu" furniture which can be placed on the fly and the foredeck.
