I was in Tortola last week and I heard there is a new 500 coming. Any one else know anything?

It would make sense a new one is coming out. The 500 is about 7 years old now, a little bit long in the tooth and time for a redesign i think. I thought a new one was coming out this summer as Lagoon is not showing it at any boat shows after an Oz show this weekend according to their web site. I'm going to the Cannes show in September, i'm hoping the new boat will be on display.

I heard that the Lagoon 520 will be announced at the Miami show.

Careka, this is the exact info I have been waiting for. Please share any new information you have when it becomes available. Thanks!

As said by Careka it will be privately presented end of October in France and officially at the Miami boat show. Contact your broker: more details (options price, pictures...) will be soon available.

Hello everyone and those who've been waiting for new Lagoon 520 news.
I have visited the new Lagoon in Bordeaux on saturday in order to change my 500 to 520.
Let me put it this way,for the first time after a visit to a new boat I didn't start dreaming or spent a sleepless night.
She looks little bit more agressive with soft knuckles at stern and bow shape is also good looking afterall I like her look more then 450 and 560.
Nauta design did well interior job with good cabin layouts.
They carried the mast backward,result is a pillar in the middle of the saloon.First boat was equipped with self tacking genoa,I think this is standard.Boom ends far from the end of flybridge,I dont know how one can reach to the end of the boom unless lowering it down which is impossible with large solid bimini.
It's a strange feeling to steer the boat so close to mast,lets say 2m away from it only and while hoisting the main should be difficult to watch its going up,The wheel therefore can be moved to left-right
Generator room is accessed through a hatch,seems like you can not remove the genny unless you literally cut a bigger hole,very tight space,they also installed charger,inverter and alikes which I didnt like since this part of the boat is getting wet most.
Entrance to aft port cabin is only possible from cocpit by a lifting door,on a rough sea it might take spray inside to cabin.There are only 2 small cocpit lockers which was very dissapointing,also in forward there are only 2 not 4 like 500 has.
The optional painted davids are real nice and functional.
Saloon,also good looking its significantly smaller then 500.
lenght overall is 15.84
waterline 15.6
beam 8.60
and light weight 56.658lb
