Flagship Lagoon 62 Marks 100th Launch
Mar 21, 2016
On 25 February, the 100th Lagoon 620 left the shipyard with great ceremony. All those who contributed to the construction and success of this magnificent catamaran were present for this event.
In fact, the sale of 100 boats in the over 60-foot segment is quite a rare event. But in the multihull world, it's a real success. The Lagoon teams therefore immortalised the moment with a “family” photo.
As a reminder, the 620 was launched in 2009 as the flagship of the range. In 2012, the firm Nauta Design reinvented the interiors of this large catamaran to offer more comfort, space and brightness.
In a little over 5 years, the 620's success has not diminished. This model is sailing around the world, on every ocean, and we are happy to celebrate it today.
In a few weeks, 620 No. 100 will go to sea on a cargo vessel, heading for Port Kelang in Malaysia, where its new owner awaits her. Like many other 620s, combining performance and comfort, this boat is intended for bluewater cruising with a splendid programme between Malaysia, Thailand and the Philippines.

Not a hard re-installation - just line up the holes and replace the screws.
I remember vividly my first experience using a chart plotter and navigation system. Deciding that we should try the cruising lifestyle, we purchased an older boat and set out from Hindson’s Marina in Penetanguishene at dawn to sail across Nottawasaga Bay to Thornbury, Ontario for the Canada Day long weekend. It was a beautiful start to the day when we left and motored out of Penetanguishene Bay and rounded the corner, heading toward Christian Island, right into pitch black clouds.

All set to pull out the Code 0 before dousing the jib.
It was a very cold and wet beginning to the summer and we never thought it would arrive in Southern Ontario. Doing a 100 miler race on Lake Ontario (billed as the COOLEST race on the lake) with my 8 layers of thermal clothing, woolen ski toque and ski mittens, along with a neck warmer kept me on the edge all night, just out of frostbite reach. I shouldn’t have complained, as we also had wind!
July and August arrived, and it has certainly warmed up, in fact, its too warm, AND we don’t have wind. We are now counting 5 Wednesday nights in a row without wind to race.

Cruise into the city of Kingston, Ontario, and it will quickly become clear that this city and surrounding waterways have something special. Built around the northern shore of Lake Ontario, Kingston is the place to go if you love to explore new waterways, fantastic views, and exceptional boating opportunities.
Sitting at the intersection of three world-class Canadian bodies of water, Lake Ontario, the St. Lawrence River, and the UNESCO World Heritage Site, the Rideau Canal (Cataraqui River from Kingston to Newboro), the water’s influence is deeply woven into Kingston’s culture and history.
