The Lagoon 570 is a large catamaran with plenty of space on board and can accommodate up to 10 guests in 5 double en-suite cabins with separate crew quarters for a Skipper or extra guests. This is one of the nicest presented Lagoon catamarans that we have had on our listings and is always kept in absolutely immaculate condition inside and out in fact I do not feel that you would find better without a long hard search, this catamaran is a real beauty! One of the older style Lagoons, which in many peoples opinion was a much better sailing yacht, better built with a generous degree of performance compared to the newer options..... This catamaran is based in Portugal and is ready to go now and expected to sell quickly, due to her lovely condition and current demand for the larger older style catamarans. With this catamarans spacious layout it would be an ideal crewed charter option or a superb private family world cruiser. Maintained to perfection by her carefully owners and fully loaded with options, the yacht is extremely well equipped. If your looking in the 60ft foot range for a catamaran you owe yourself a trip to see this one as it is rather special with huge cockpit and luxurious saloon there is plenty of space on board for family friends or charter guests and rarely available this side of the pond.

5 interesting insights about sailing myths: 1*Whistling Aboard* You absolutely cannot pucker your lips and *whistle* on deck; that's just begging the Sea Gods to hear the insolence and whip up a catastrophic, ship-smashing storm. It was a simple, pragmatic method of enforcing silence: if you weren't whistling for fun, you were whistling for the wind in the sails—a literal attempt to challenge the elements when the weather was too calm. *Bananas on Board* To carry a single, innocent-looking banana onto a fishing or trading vessel was to invite complete doom—from mysterious disappearances to a devastatingly empty net. Forget the tropical fruit curse; ripening bananas release ethylene gas that speeds up the spoilage of *all* other food, forcing crews to rush their voyage. The real threat was rotten food and starvation! *The Unlucky Redhead* Anyone with flaming crimson hair was a certified 'Jonah'—an immediate harbinger of bad luck whose very presence could sink the ship. The intense belief was so strong that if a sailor saw a redhead before boarding, they *had* to speak first to neutralize the terrible bad luck—a social anxiety nightmare on the docks. *Renaming a Vessel* You can never, under any circumstances, rename your beloved boat without a meticulous ceremony to trick the Sea God, Poseidon, who keeps a ledger of every ship. Poseidon's ledger is a clever fiction; the real danger was confusing official maritime records, insurance papers, and salvage contracts, thus creating administrative chaos and potential financial ruin. *Friday Sailings* Starting any voyage on a Friday was deemed an absolute guarantee of misfortune, so potent was the superstition that no true sailor would ever raise anchor on that day. The British Navy, in a legendary attempt to mock this superstition, built a vessel named *HMS Friday*, captained by a man named Friday, and sailed her out on a Friday—and she was never seen again.
