Aboard S/V Peregrine: A Woods 33 Sagitta Catamaran Tour

Brian — Fri, 11 Sep 2026 19:45:37 +0000

Some boats are best understood from the inside out, and that’s exactly how this short walkthrough of S/V Peregrine unfolds. She’s a 1994 Woods 33 Sagitta — a 30 Sagitta Stretch drawn by Richard Woods and built by Heritage Manufacturing in South Africa — and the tour begins at a detail you won’t find on every cruising cat: a second, lower steering station.

Added at the suggestion of a previous owner, the inner wheel works through a push-pull cable that turns the engines, and as the narrator points out, it earns its keep in tight spaces.…

S/V Clapotis: A 2015 Lagoon 450F Living the Baja Life

Paul — Thu, 10 Sep 2026 19:42:32 +0000

Some boat videos walk you through every locker and pump. This one doesn’t. The clip for S/V Clapotis, a 2015 Lagoon 450F (hull #389), is a music-led montage — original tracks “Gettin’ Marinated” and “Son of a Beach” by Jason Zinsmeister — set to scenes of life aboard. It opens on “Day 2, waking up in Baja Sur,” coffee in hand, and never really leaves that register: warm light, palm trees, the water, and the easy rhythm of a boat being used rather than stored.…

2015 Lagoon 450F: S/V Clapotis Comes to Market

Paul — Thu, 10 Sep 2026 19:27:14 +0000

Some walkthrough videos talk you through every locker; this one simply plays a song. The footage accompanying S/V Clapotis is set to music rather than commentary, so rather than guess at what the camera passes over, here are the facts as listed.

What’s on offer

She’s a 2015 Lagoon 450F — hull #389 — measuring 45 feet, offered through Paul on YachtSite.com. The “F” designation is the meaningful part: this is the flybridge version of Lagoon’s best-selling mid-size cruising catamaran, with the helm and lounging area raised above the coachroof rather than tucked to one side.…

S/V Clapotis: A 2015 Lagoon 450F Cruising Catamaran

Paul — Thu, 10 Sep 2026 19:26:50 +0000

The video accompanying this listing plays more like a cruising highlight reel — a soundtrack over sunlit anchorages, with place names like Isla del Carmen drifting past — than a narrated tour. It sets a mood rather than a spec sheet, so rather than guess at what the camera glides over, here is what we can say with confidence about the boat itself.

The boat

S/V Clapotis is a 2015 Lagoon 450F — hull #389 — measuring 45 feet. The “F” denotes the flybridge version of Lagoon’s best-known mid-size cruising catamaran, the layout that places the helm and a social lounging area up top, above and behind the coachroof, leaving the cockpit and saloon uninterrupted below.…

Aboard S/V Noble House: A Carbon McConaghy MC 62 Tour

Alexis de Boucaud — Wed, 09 Sep 2026 04:31:16 +0000

Some performance catamarans ask you to trade comfort for speed. The 2019 McConaghy MC 62 S/V Noble House, presented in this walkthrough by Alexis de Boucaud of The Multihull Company, seems intent on refusing the bargain altogether — and the tour makes a credible case.

Driving from the flybridge

The tour opens at what Alexis calls a “unique vantage point from which to drive the boat.” The design team at Currey Yacht Design pushed the flybridge concept further here: twin wheels, electric throttles on each side, and a battery of electric winches within reach.…

Aboard S/V Tantrum: A 2005 Fountaine Pajot 43 Belize Owners

Marianne — Tue, 08 Sep 2026 09:02:48 +0000

There’s a certain honesty to a walkthrough filmed by someone who clearly knows every locker on the boat. That’s what you get with S/V Tantrum, a 2005 Fountaine Pajot 43 Belize in owners layout, presented by Marianne. No music, no drone shots — just a steady tour from the saloon down into both hulls, opening cupboards as she goes.

Saloon and galley

The tour starts in the saloon, where the dinette table drops to convert into a berth for two extra guests.…

Aboard S/V Tantrum: A 2005 Fountaine Pajot 43 Belize

Marianne — Tue, 08 Sep 2026 09:01:56 +0000

The walkthrough of S/V Tantrum, a 2005 Fountaine Pajot 43 Belize in the sought-after owners version, is short and matter-of-fact — the kind of tour given by someone who knows the boat well enough to point rather than pitch. What it does cover is the cockpit and deck, and that is where a cruising catamaran earns its keep.

Cockpit and deck

The tour highlights a generous cockpit with double seats and cushions throughout, plus clear plastic covers and sunscreen panels that can be rigged all the way around — sunshades up in the heat, rain covers up in a downpour.…

Aboard S/V Prana: A 1992 Hinckley 59 Sou’wester Tour

Tom Harney — Tue, 08 Sep 2026 01:09:57 +0000

Some boats need a hard sell. The Hinckley 59 Sou’wester is not one of them. In this dockside walkthrough, Tom Harney of Jordan Yachts introduces S/V Prana, a 1992 example of the model, with a simple summary that the rest of the tour proceeds to back up: fast, strong, and beautiful.

Deck and Rig: Set Up for Shorthanded Miles

The sailplan is built around ease of handling. Prana carries a roller furling jib and a roller furling staysail, with a Forespar Leisure Furl in-boom furling system for the main.…

Inside S/V Stray Cats: A Heavily Upgraded Lagoon 450 F

Jannelle — Sun, 06 Sep 2026 15:13:15 +0000

Most owner tours dwell on cushions and countertops. The technical walkthrough of S/V Stray Cats, a 2016 Lagoon 450 F offered by Jannelle, goes the other way: it opens in the rig, works its way through the solar array and lithium bank, and finishes in the bilges talking about thru-hulls. If you’re shopping this platform seriously, it’s the video you want.

A rig that rewrites the 450 F routine

The headline modification is a Leisure Furl Passagemaker boom furler in place of the standard main and sail bag.…

Aboard S/V Stray Cats: A Cruiser-Ready 2016 Lagoon 450F

Jannelle — Sun, 06 Sep 2026 15:12:22 +0000

Some catamarans reveal themselves slowly. Others tell you everything in the first thirty seconds. S/V Stray Cats, a 2016 Lagoon 450 F presented by Jannelle, falls into the second camp: a walkthrough of her fit and finish quickly becomes a catalogue of small, considered decisions made by owners who have actually lived aboard.

The numbers first. She measures 45 feet 10 inches with a 25-foot 6-inch beam and a 75-foot 6-inch mast, laid out in the four-cabin, four-head configuration. She is the flybridge version of the 450 — the “F” — and, importantly for buyers wary of ex-fleet boats, she has never been chartered and has never been through a hurricane.…
