The Lagoon 420 offers a spacious and bright living area, with built-in amenities such as a washing machine and water heating. These features allow for comfortable living even in port, which is ideal for those considering using the boat as a primary residence.
At sea, the Lagoon 420 is known for its sturdiness and ability to handle waves well. However, it can prove to be very heavy and unresponsive at the helm, requiring attention when reducing sail due to its sensitivity to drag.
The Lagoon 420 can present challenges during marina maneuvers, especially when sailing solo, due to its high freeboard compared to the dock. The twin engines assist with handling, but sensitivity to crosswinds must be taken into account.
The Lagoon 420 is sometimes criticized for its finishes, with defects such as poorly joined bulkheads and unstable steps. These reported issues may reflect a lack of follow-up from the builder after construction.
The Lagoon 420 can accommodate between 8 and 12 people depending on the chosen configuration. Rental rates range from €3,560 in low season to €7,767 in high season.
