About Bareboat Catamaran Lagoon 42
The Lagoon 42 is a spacious catamaran built for independent exploration of French Polynesia's island chain. Four double cabins and two single cabins provide flexible accommodation, whilst the dual-hull design delivers the stability and shallow-draft performance essential for navigating lagoons and anchorages across Tahiti, Raiatea, Huahine, and Taha'a.
The open deck layout prioritises effortless living. A generous saloon with coachroof door creates seamless flow to the aft deck, where expansive sunbathing areas invite you to anchor and unwind. The design emphasises natural light and uncluttered spaces, avoiding the cramped feel of single-hull vessels of comparable size.
A water maker, generator, and air conditioning provide essential reliability for remote anchorages. The Nespresso machine ensures your mornings meet the standards you expect. This is bareboat sailing without compromise on essentials.

The Charter Experience
Tahiti's lagoons are characterised by calm, crystalline waters and short passages between islands. Your week unfolds at your own pace: anchor in secluded bays, dive pristine coral reefs, and explore villages accessible only by water. The South Pacific's trade winds and protected passages make for straightforward sailing, ideal for experienced bareboat charterers seeking freedom without the logistical complexity of crewed charters.
Suggested Itinerary
A typical seven-day charter departs Bora Bora and ventures southeast towards Raiatea, Taha'a, and Huahine, island-hopping between sheltered anchorages, snorkelling sites, and local settlements. Distances between islands average four to eight hours under sail, allowing unhurried passages and time to explore each destination without rushing.
