Re: Lagoon 400 Bulkhead an issue?

if you open underbelly of lagoon will see several substantial metal(?) reinforcements that are designed to flex more in line with boat geometry. I suspect these play role of transverse beam.

Re: Lagoon 400 Bulkhead an issue?

look at bridgedeck shape - nacelle front of bridgedeck - it is designed to play main bulkhead role with spare flex built in. Benefit is material is fiberglass, flexing more in line with other boat so...

Re: Lagoon 400 Bulkhead an issue?

i cant show you that. It is my best guess after looking in how boat is built. 2 tunnels have reinforcements (metal?) that can be seen from inside. Nacelle and bridgedeck has serious fiberglass...

lagoons depreciate the least on used cat market and sell fastest.

Re: Lagoon 400 Bulkhead an issue?

Lagoons are built well. The fact that boat can twist harmoniously in heavy weather, makes it more seaworthy and not less. I have no reason to believe otherwise. Fixing nacelle problem with some...

Re: Lagoon 400 Bulkhead an issue?

Re: Lagoon 400 Bulkhead an issue?
