The post-Covid sailing boom is now behind us, and boating is experiencing an interlude phase that nevertheless is not stopping yards from producing numerous new products.
Our editorial staff beat the length and breadth of Italian and international docks and shipyards on the hunt for projects, newly presented or launched boats, to snap a picture of the 2025 that awaits us. But not only that, our radar is always on, and not only on boat shows, because other major shipyards that were not physically present at the recent Boot in Dusseldorf also have their new products on the launch pad, which will then arrive in turn between next spring and fall.
After the “little ones” from 7 to 11 meters, here is a review of 5 others, continuing with the middle metric range, from 11 to 15 meters.
11.38 m – Lagoon 38 / Lagoon Catamarans
The new Lagoon 38 will offer exceptional liveability due to the new hull shape. Compared to the old Lagoon 40, first, the two floats are less tapered at the bow, offering more interior volume. The second most noticeable change is the advancement of the mast towards the bow, a solution already seen on Lagoon 43 and 60. DISCOVER MORE.
