NEGRONI

## Lagoon 51 — *Negroni* Croatia's Dalmatian coast is catamaran country: short hops between islands, deep anchorages, and long afternoons at anchor where the difference between a good week and a great one comes down to how much usable deck you have. *Negroni*, a Lagoon 51, is built precisely for that kind of cruising. The 51 is one of Lagoon's better-resolved layouts, and the reason is the circulation. The saloon opens onto a generous aft cockpit, the flybridge carries modular seating that can be rearranged as the day changes, and a forward cockpit gives you a clear, uninterrupted view over the bow — the best seat aboard when you're under sail. Wide transoms make stepping ashore, or into the water, genuinely easy, which matters more than it sounds when you're doing it a dozen times a day. She takes up to 10 guests. Your BellaYacht advisor will confirm the exact cabin configuration for your dates. Systems are complete rather than showy: generator, inverter, air conditioning and heating, watermaker, icemaker, and Wi-Fi throughout. The galley is properly fitted out with freezer, dishwasher, microwave, stove with oven and coffee maker — enough to cook seriously aboard rather than merely reheat. Sun covers over both flybridge and cockpit, cushions throughout, and a cockpit shower handle the practical side of Adriatic summer. The Fusion Apollo audio system extends to cockpit speakers, and there's a TV with DVD in the saloon. The hydraulic tender platform deserves a mention. It launches the dinghy and its 20 hp outboard without ceremony, and once lowered it becomes a swim platform at water level — the closest thing to a private beach you'll get at anchor. *Negroni* charters with a professional skipper. A hostess or chef can be added to the crew on request, and your advisor will talk you through how that shapes the week. For the water: SUP, seascooter, electric scooter, towable tube, snorkelling gear and a Jobe Infinity floating chair.
