What do you do if you find a mouse in your home? 🐭😂 Apparently… prank your husband first. What started as a harmless “there’s a mouse onboard!” joke quickly turned into a reminder of why sailors take rodents so seriously. A mouse or rat onboard isn’t just annoying — it can become a real safety issue, especially when you live full-time on a boat. • They chew electrical wires which can damage navigation systems, batteries and even cause fires • They contaminate food and water supplies with droppings and urine • They can carry diseases like Hantavirus and other harmful bacteria • They destroy cushions, clothes, ropes, sail bags and insulation while building nests • They hide in tiny spaces inside the boat, making them very hard to catch • And once onboard, they multiply FAST On land this may just be a pest problem. At sea, it can become a serious one.

Mark’s been enjoying life aboard his Lagoon for over two years, and it’s clear why he loves it! 😍 ☀️ Everything about the Lagoon feels open and connected to the sea, from the spacious headroom to the expansive front windows ⛵️ “I’ve used every part of the sail package—parasail, scrounger, genoa, and mainsail—going up the coast, and it’s been incredible. Tough, forgiving, and built to last” 🧐 What features do you love most about your boat? #lagoonlife #sailingadventure #boatinglifestyle #lagoon42 #sailboatlife #openwater #boatingfreedom #coastalcruising #sailingdreams #boatlover #marinelife #boatadventures #sailingvibes #sailaway #lagoonowners #boatlove #boatgram #sailinglife #boattrip #mainesail #toughboat #sailinglife #boatenthusiast #boatingcommunity #lagoonboats #coastsailing #sailingfreedom #sailwithstyle #boatingpassion #lagoonfamily
