Lagoon innovations – the key to global success

Lagoon is a company that’s dominating the global multi-hull market. It has been successful at it since its very beginnings and especially in inventions and innovations.

How was this achieved?

It’s very difficult to simplify it all to a single reason. However, it probably comes down to their continuous efforts to bring a handful of basic concepts to perfection. Seems like this has definitely played a major role in obtaining a worldwide reputation in catamaran construction.
Starting as a part of JTA (Jeanneau Technologies Avancées or Jeanneau Advanced Technologies), Lagoon innovations have thoroughly changed the catamaran construction. They used their racing experience and a unique philosophy oriented on constantly raising the level of comfort while maintaining superb performance.
Listed below you’ll find their most significant accomplishments. Starting from the construction of a trimaran for the Waterworld movie all the way to the most advanced ways of space management and automatization on the flagship models of today.

Early days in racing

To fully understand the evolution of the brand, we have to go back to Lagoon’s beginnings under JTA. The JTA team developed specialized and sometimes peculiar projects (such as the Waterworld). In the late 1980s, passionate racing enthusiasts built multi-hulls that still hold records today!
Principles, knowledge and experience gained in the racing days were soon applied to cruising boats, with great success.
