The owners of this Lagoon F450 wanted to extend their teak deck to the fly-bridge stairs. Not an easy project, and we had to think about a specific methodology to solve, but everyone’s happy with the result. First we made mock structures of each of the stairs — 6 of them in total –, soContinue reading “Lagoon F450 teak stairs cover”

Lagoon 450 teak front cockpit
Normally the Lagoon 450 doesn’t come with a teak front cockpit. However, this owner wanted one matching the teak he had in the back. We started this project from scratch a couple of weeks ago.

How to protect the propellers?
This has been a long-standing debate among our clients and partners. I once talked to this client who had applied the hull bottom paint to their propeller, no primer, no resin to prevent galvanic reaction. The paint cover went off in a blast after very little time.

Wind generator stainless steel pole
The owners of this Lagoon 450F catamaran came to us a couple of years ago with a very annoying issue. Despite a quite strong existing inox pole for their Eclectic Energy d400 wind generator, supported by 3 stainless steel legs, they encountered lots of vibrations. In fact, they told us that their guests, trying toContinue reading “Wind generator stainless steel pole”
