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.

Evinride, Yamaha, and Mercury had outboard joystick control systems in the water at Miami, on display to the public for the first time. From media intros held months ago, we've previously reported on the Yamaha Helm Master and Mercury Verado joystick controls, and a collaboration between SeaStar (formerly Teleflex) and BRP/Evinrude was news that broke just before the show. In the short time that we are allowed to spend with these steering systems it's really impossible to determine how each will work in the variety of situations an owner may encounter, but so far I have yet to pilot a joystick-equipped boat that just didn't respond to input. One fact that eveyone needs to keep in mind is that the ultimate performance of the joystick control is very much dependent on the boat -- the hull shape and weight, the location of the center of gravity, the spacing of the outboards, how it's propped, and how many outboards are on the transom. These systems need to be dialed in for each boat. And at the Yamaha Helm Master intro I was told point-blank that its joystick control may not be a good match for every boat. When Yamaha does not feel the Helm Master will work well on a certain hull, it won't permit the builder to install it. If joysticks for outboards become popular, expect to see builders designing new boats specifically to work well in joystick mode, by optimizing the boat's center of gravity and by spreading the motors as far as possible on the transom. Both are key to joystick performance. Also look for builders to design the helm area to include a dedicated mounting location that puts the joystick in a good ergonomic position.
