The cabins all have a light and airy feel that adds to the feeling of space and comfort.  PERFORMANCE AND HANDLING The mast step positioned further aft, which stems directly from VPLP’s experience in competitive sailing, creates a balanced and smooth sailing experience. The shorter boom and high aspect mainsail, trimmed using an electric captive winch, makes for easier sail handling and maneuvering as well as optimized performance. The self-tacking jib is controlled with one line and all the sail controls are neatly organized and in easy reach at the Fly-bridge The wheel is in the center of the boat and visibility around the boat is good. All in all, with electric winches, autopilot and the latest B&G navigation equipment sailing this boat can be very simple to handle and sailed comfortably with few crew. Under power, the Lagoon 50 with the upgraded 80hp diesels is smooth and responsive, and there is also a bow thruster for even easier docking.   GETTING AROUND Coming aboard the Lagoon 50 couldn’t be easier, the transom steps are wide and the steps up to the cockpit are shallow. The side decking is wide with flush hatches and plenty of handholds when moving forward or aft. Access up-to the fly-bridge is from either side of the boat with wide safe steps. There is also a terrific remote-controlled tender-lift, designed to handle a 12 ft dinghy and outboard. This makes storing the dinghy a pleasure rather than a chore, With the dinghy launched, the tender-lift transforms into a great sunbathing area, or lower it to the water and use it as a swim-up bar!
