CARETTA NANA

Lagoon 450F — Greece The Lagoon 450F is built around a simple idea that works particularly well in the Greek islands: the boundary between inside and out should barely register. The saloon opens directly onto the cockpit on the same level, glazing runs all the way around, and by mid-morning you stop noticing which side of the threshold you happen to be on. Coffee at anchor, lunch in the shade of the bimini, a long evening as the light goes off the Cyclades — it all happens in the same continuous space. Accommodation is arranged across six cabins for twelve guests: four cabins with a double bed, and two cabins with a single bed. A layout that suits two or three families cruising together, or a group that wants real privacy at the end of the day rather than a compromise. Under sail, this is a catamaran that rewards an unhurried itinerary — stable, level, easy on guests who are not sailors, and comfortable enough at anchor that you will find yourself staying a second night in bays you had planned to pass through. The crew handles the navigation, the provisioning and the daily rhythm on board, adjusting the route to the wind and to what you actually feel like doing. Greece is a cruising ground of short hops and sudden meltemi, and having people aboard who read both makes the difference between a schedule and a holiday.
