About Bareboat Catamaran Lagoon 400
The Lagoon 400 is a purpose-built cruising catamaran that delivers genuine comfort without compromise. Her twin hulls provide exceptional stability and shallow draft, ideal for exploring the British Virgin Islands' protected anchorages. Three spacious double cabins accommodate six guests, each with natural light and independent access. The owner's version adds a dedicated shower and private office.
The design emphasises open-plan living. A generous saloon flows seamlessly to the cockpit through sliding glass doors, creating the flexible indoor-outdoor space serious cruisers demand. The galley sits aft to starboard with direct cockpit access, whilst a forward nav station manages navigation with clarity. Pale varnish, white joinery, and grey accents create a sense of airiness throughout.
Deck layout prioritises both safety and ease. Wide side decks with minimal protrusions lead to a capacious U-shaped cockpit positioned for entertaining and relaxation. Forward, twin trampolines offer sun lounging whilst the hardtop canopy provides essential shade. Dinghy davits and built-in liferaft storage complete the practical picture.

The Charter Experience
Bareboat charter in the BVI demands a vessel that responds to skilled handling and rewards careful planning. The Lagoon 400 delivers both. Her fully battened mainsail with stackpack and self-tacking jib make sail handling intuitive. The Lagoon profile cuts through the trades with real pace, yet her shallow draft opens shallow bays and island anchorages inaccessible to deeper keels. Cruise the iconic passages between Tortola, Virgin Gorda, and Jost Van Dyke with a vessel that feels like an extension of your intentions rather than an obstacle to them.
Suggested Itinerary
A typical week might begin from Tortola, sailing east to Virgin Gorda's dramatic boulders and protected anchorages, then continuing to Jost Van Dyke for settled conditions and renowned beach bars. The Lagoon 400's shallow draft allows access to lesser-known mooring fields around Peter Island and the Dogs, whilst her comfortable motion and responsive handling make the crossing back to Tortola a pleasure rather than an endurance test.
