2023 Lagoon 46 S/V DAKITI: Owner-Kept, Off-Grid Ready

A never-chartered, four-cabin Lagoon 46 in Puerto Rico built for self-sufficient, long-range cruising.


Some catamarans arrive on the brokerage market with a story worth telling, and S/V DAKITI is one of them. This 2023 Lagoon 46, presented by Captain Paco Montaner of The Multihull Company in Puerto Rico, is an owner-operated, never-chartered example that has been meticulously maintained from delivery. In a segment where charter-fleet boats dominate, that alone makes her stand apart.

A Cockpit and Flybridge Built for Living

Step aboard and the cockpit sets the tone: teak flooring, a wide, open layout, and a seamless connection into the salon that delivers the indoor-outdoor lifestyle Lagoon has become known for. The transom is broad, water access is easy, and thoughtful handholds keep movement secure underway.

Climb to the flybridge and you’ll find what many owners consider the Lagoon 46’s best feature. All sail handling is led aft for short-handed sailing, sightlines from the helm are excellent, and a full enclosure paired with a large sun pad and generous guest seating turn this into all-weather living space. On long crossings, this is clearly where the miles get made.

Bright Interior, Serious Galley

The salon is classic modern Lagoon — panoramic glazing, near 360-degree views at anchor, and an airy, functional layout suited to full-time cruising. The galley is positioned to keep the cook connected to guests inside and out, and it’s equipped with a Force 10 stainless four-burner gas stove and oven, ample refrigeration, and generous counter and storage space.

Four Cabins, Four Heads

DAKITI is laid out in the highly sought-after four-cabin configuration, each stateroom with its own en-suite head. Headroom, ventilation, natural light, and storage are strong throughout — a layout that flexes easily between family cruising, couples traveling together, and hosting guests without compromise.

Genuinely Off-Grid Capable

Where DAKITI really separates herself is in her systems. She carries 1,500 amp-hours of lithium batteries, 2,400 watts of solar, and a Victron Quattro inverter — enough to run limited, quiet air conditioning at anchor. A 16 kW generator and a 100 L/hr watermaker round out a fully redundant, self-sufficient package. Electronics are streamlined Raymarine throughout, with a 16-inch Axiom Pro at the helm and a 12-inch display at the nav station. The Yanmar diesels show low hours, consistent with a boat that has never been chartered.

A well-equipped dinghy and a custom board rack for water toys complete the cruising kit.
