Urteil
The 2011 Lagoon 500 is a roomy cruising catamaran with strong liveaboard appeal, a practical owner-version layout, and solid systems fit-out. It is not a performance catamaran, but it offers dependable passage-making, easy handling for its size, and good value for buyers prioritizing space and comfort over speed.
Vorteile
- +Very spacious 51 ft catamaran layout with strong deck and cockpit volume
- +Owner-version 4-cabin configuration suits private cruising well
- +Good systems package: air conditioning, generator, watermaker, dishwasher, washer/dryer
- +Twin inboard diesel setup and saildrive configuration support straightforward cruising
- +Easy handling features include autopilot, radar, electric winches, and thruster
Nachteile
- −Not a fast multihull; performance is more cruising-oriented than sporty
- −Large footprint can be demanding in tight marinas and crowded anchorages
- −Load, refit condition, and engine spec can vary significantly by listing
- −Owner-version 4-cabin layout gives less berth count than standard charter versions
The Lagoon 500 is a large cruising catamaran with the hallmark Lagoon priorities: volume, stability, and easy family or charter use. At about 51 ft long with a wide beam, it offers a lot of usable space for a boat in this class, and the 2011 owner-version configuration with 4 cabins is well suited to private cruising rather than maximum berth count.
On the water, it is best described as a comfortable passagemaker rather than a performance cat. The twin-diesel setup, autopilot, radar, electric winches, and thruster make it manageable for a boat of this size, but buyers should expect steady cruising efficiency rather than lively sailing. Engine specifications vary by listing, so condition and maintenance history matter as much as the nominal horsepower.
Inside, the Lagoon 500 is one of its strongest cases: air conditioning, generator, watermaker, refrigerator, dishwasher, washer/dryer, and other amenities make it attractive for extended cruising or liveaboard use. The value proposition is strongest for buyers who want space, systems, and comfort, and less compelling for those focused on pure sailing performance or compact marina friendliness.
