About

2023 LAGOON 42 HULL 785 - CRUISING THE CARIBBEAN - EN-ROUTE TO CHARLESTON, SC MID-APRIL 2025

Bluevana is a proven, meticulously maintained and very well appointed version of a 2023 Lagoon 42.  She has been extensively outfitted for self-sufficient and luxury bluewater sailing. The owner took delivery directly from the factory in France and has crossed the Atlantic – over 4,000 nautical miles for a thorough shake down. Factory options and other custom improvements have made her a true off the grid vessel. Don’t buy new and then outfit your Lagoon – take delivery of Bluevana and disappear into your horizon.

Manufacturer’s Info

The Lagoon 42 benefits from a rig set more centrally, a formula with advantages validated by her bigger sisters. The larger foretriangle makes it possible to juggle between the big self-tacking jib and the downwind sails. Because of the high aspect ratio of the mainsail, the size of the boom is shorter. It provides performance and maneuverability, while weight-centering limits pitch. From the helm, the unobstructed view and the access to all sail maneuvers guarantee perfect control, even then sailing short-handed.

Every boat is a compromise somehow, but when a manufacturer gets it right, they are seriously in demand. “More than 800 Lagoon 42s have now been delivered…It offers lots of space, even by multihull standards”…Yachting Monthly July 2022

We purchased our Balance 442 through TMC, Andrew Hodgdon in the St Augustine office, and the experience was excellent. We had a couple last minute issues like incorrect hull ID on docs, and they quickly ran point to get this all taken care of to help us close on time. It was all especially impressive given that most of this was happening during the end of year holidays. Good team, good follow up. Recommended.

Working with Will, Andrew Holland and Andrew Hodgdon to sell my Balance 442 was such a pleasure. No one knows multihulls as well as Andrew Hodgdon, especially performance cats like a Balance. As Technical Director of Balance for many years, Andrew knows all of the nuances of that type of boat, as well as the other brands in the category.
