► Full test in Multihulls World N°195: https://www.multihulls-world.com/review/catamaran/new-windelo-50-still-just-as-eco-responsible-but-much-more-attractive ► Almost two years after the launch of the first Windelo - a 50 Adventure that we tested in MW Special Edition #16 - the builders, based at Canet-en-Roussillon in the South of France, are already seeing their initial concept validated: their high-performance and eco-responsible catamarans currently enjoy an order book that’s full through 2025... The time has therefore come for Windelo to increase their production capacity (soon 6 units per year). A process which implies in the long term the need to increase the size of the premises and in the immediate future to have deck molds much less greedy in parts (3 as opposed to 21!). The opportunity is therefore perfect to restyle their first two models, the 50 (that will be on show at Cannes) and 54. This mission was logically entrusted to the Barreau/Neuman team, assisted by Charlotte Schiffer. The main idea was to use the wave theme already present on the sides of the hull for the deck. Beyond the cosmetic alterations, the coachroof has been revised to improve drainage and to moderate its square appearance: the forward face has been reworked with two hatches slightly angled aft and inversed. The top of the coachroof now has a “cap” appearance, all the more evident with it now being extended aft. The rear platform and the sugarscoops are also more elegant. The forward cockpit dedicated to sailing maneuvers has been improved. As for the interior, this now respects well-defined color options. ► TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS Builder: Windelo Length: 50’ (15.24 m) Beam: 26’1” (7.95 m) Light displacement: 24,700 lbs (11.2 t) Draft: 5’2” (1.58 m) or 3’5” / 7’7” (1.03/2.32 m) Mainsail: 990 sq ft (92 m²) Genoa: 462 sq ft (43 m²) Fuel: 132 US gal (500 l) Water: 105 US gal (400 l) Berths: 12 Engines: 2 x 20 kW ► Become a FREE SUBSCRIBER to Multihulls World's YouTube page now - https://www.youtube.com/c/MultihullsWorld ► Log on to our website to discover over 500 multihulls tests!

► Lagoon’s Premium division has already launched more than 50 units, testifying to customers’ enthusiasm for these very large catamarans built in small series production runs - but by a custom service - and justifying the design of even larger models… In concrete terms, it is the historic Seventy range that is being phased out to make way for the Eighty. There are few changes to the hulls, which have been slightly lengthened, but the deck layout and interior design are completely new. Aboard the Eighty 2, which we have just been taking an exclusive look at in Bordeaux, we find the famous opening in the hull topsides as first seen on the Seventy 7 - it acts as a terrace on the water in the Owner’s suite. Despite being proportionately narrower in beam than the Sixty, for example, the deck offers a flybridge of some 540 square feet (50 m²) that can be fitted out as desired, while aft, the platform connecting the sugarscoops covers 236 sq ft (22 m²)... Inside, you’ve got the choice of galley up or galley down. The Lagoon Eighty 2 will very soon be available in a power version under the name of the Eighty 3. ► TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS: Builder: Lagoon Catamarans Architects: VPLP Design/Patrick Le Quément Interior design: Nauta Design Overall length: 81’11” (24.97 m) Hull length: 78’5” (23.91 m) Length at waterline: 78’3” (23.85 m) Beam: 36’1” (11 m) Draft: (1.9 m) Sail area: 3,683 sq ft (338 m²) Engines: 2 x 230 HP Fuel: 2 x 370 US Gal (2 x 1,400 l) Water: 2 x 211 US Gal (2 x 800 l) CE Certification: A14/B18/C24/D40 ► Become a FREE SUBSCRIBER to Multihulls World's YouTube page now - https://www.youtube.com/c/MultihullsWorld ► Log on to our website to discover over 600 multihulls tests!

Updated view of the storm as we begin to get the outer bands of rain. So far so good. The models are still all over the place. The eye has shifted a bit south but we are still waiting for the hurricane to make landfall. We are still hoping for the best and that all will be well. Our continued prayers to those that are in the worse part of the storm.
