We deliver Lagoon catamarans between ports in Southeast Asia and on longer offshore passages across the Asia-Pacific. Our Lagoon deliveries have run from Indonesia, Malaysia, Hong Kong, the Philippines and Singapore to Thailand, Australia and New Zealand. Each relocation is planned around the yacht and proposed route. We take responsibility for preparation, passage planning, watchkeeping, communication with the owner and handover. If you are arranging a move, tell us the Lagoon model, departure point, destination and approximate timing. We can review the requirements and prepare an estimate.
The shortest route is not always the best one. For each delivery, we consider the yacht’s range and equipment alongside weather, traffic, fuel availability and possible stops. Our Kudat to Subic Bay Lagoon 40 account describes how these details shape a regional passage.
Every boat has its own condition and maintenance history. Before departure, we check the systems needed for the passage. On the Philippines to Phuket Lagoon 50 delivery, the preparation included the engines, saildrives, steering, autopilot, charts and safety equipment.
Fuel, provisions, spares, clearances and stopovers need to be considered before the yacht is underway. The route and the boat determine what is required. Our Subic Bay to Cairns Lagoon 440 account describes planning for fuel, provisioning, departure timing and clearances on a longer offshore passage.
Once underway, we maintain a proper watch and monitor the yacht and passage. The Lombok to Phuket Lagoon 42 delivery involved shipping lanes and fishing activity, including poorly marked fishing devices. The Hong Kong to Subic Bay account describes weather analysis and vessel monitoring.
We have delivered Lagoon 40, Lagoon 42, Lagoon 440 and Lagoon 50 catamarans on routes around Southeast Asia and farther across the Pacific. The Lombok to Phuket Lagoon 42 passage crossed the Java Sea, Malacca Strait and Andaman Sea. The Kudat to Subic Bay Lagoon 40 delivery involved fuel planning, clearances and possible stopovers. We have also delivered Lagoon 50s from Hong Kong to Subic Bay, from the Philippines to Phuket, and from Singapore to New Zealand; our Lagoon 440 route ran from Subic Bay to Cairns. The passages differ in length and requirements, so we plan each one around the particular yacht and destination. The Singapore to New Zealand Lagoon 50 passage also required planning around expected daily runs, fuel reserves, weather and checks of the rigging, steering, engines and safety equipment.
Moving a yacht between countries is different from cruising locally. The route has to suit the individual Lagoon, the conditions expected and the practical requirements at each end. Our job is to move the yacht safely, keep the owner informed and complete a clear handover. We agree the scope of work and communication before departure, then manage the passage from departure through arrival.
We do not assume every Lagoon needs the same preparation. We consider the yacht’s condition, equipment and maintenance history when planning the passage.
The skipper is responsible for the yacht during the delivery. Route planning and weather analysis are reviewed against the conditions and the requirements of the passage.
We provide progress information so the owner knows where the yacht is and how the delivery is going. Updates can reflect the owner’s requirements and the passage.
A delivery finishes with the yacht at the agreed destination and a clear handover. We report on the passage and the yacht’s condition at arrival.
Send us the Lagoon model, departure point, destination and approximate timing. We’ll review the proposed delivery and prepare an estimate.
