? Full test to discover in Multihulls World N°203. ? The head-to-head between 38 and the 380 ultimately never took place, all down to the Mistral that was coming through a little too hard, blowing at over 30 knots early on our test day we'd scheduled out of Bonifacio. So, our boat tester Brieuc Maisonneuve got to sail aboard the new Lagoon 38 in lively conditions, but the 380 remained alongside the dock. His initial reaction: "We set sail in 20 knots, gusting 30. I found the catamaran very stable despite the very short sea, and the helm was very smooth. On the downside, I wasn't so sure about the choice of a self-tacking jib: the sail is difficult to trim at points further off the wind and lacks power when sailing close to the wind, which can result in a slightly disappointing heading. As for the comfort on board, it is exceptional for the size of the boat, and the layout of the starboard hull is a real success." ?

PREPARING COCKPIT: Singlehanded Docking Stern To with Lazy Lines Value of set up is often under-rated. Here's video 4 in Nicks step by step process getting set up and ready for Singlehanded Docking Stern To with Lazy Lines. =========================== Watch the full video here - https://youtu.be/-OPs960oR88 Transcript: I'm also going to make sure that my everything's ready. That there's nothing in the cockpit that's going to interrupt me. So like I've got these lovely cushions down here for the photo shoot. That's great. But I'm going to want to step up over these if I want to get out of this side of the cockpit with the line. So I'm getting rid of that uh the tables are up and there's nothing going to fall off here. I'm going to do this other side pillow as well. Also preparing me. All right. I'm going to get warm doing this. So I don't need this jacket on anymore. As much as I love wearing the brand -then double checks! What do I need ready. I need my bow thrusters and Stern thrusters ready. If I've got them and I want to use them they're turning on. Just make sure there's no switches that need to go on all of a sudden. I double check my lines. Yes these are all set up. Fenders, fenders nothing slipped off. And always check this! Make sure this is not actually caught up. The number of times I put that line out first then tied this fender on and it's hooked under it so just always double check! =========================== Filmed and Edited by Mahina Hathaway and Nick Hathaway, 45 Degrees Sailing Looking to sail in Croatia?
