Lagoon 420 | Extensively Modified Performance-Oriented Cruising Catamaran

Rollercoaster is a highly customized Lagoon 420 that stands apart from any standard example on the market. Designed for owners who value the legendary comfort, layout, and livability of the Lagoon 420but want significantly improved offshore performance, motion, and safetythis vessel has undergone a professionally engineered hull transformation and comprehensive systems upgrades.

Following extensive research and consultation with experienced fabricators and naval design principles, Rollercoaster was lengthened both aft and forward, resulting in a dramatically increased waterline length, reduced pitching, improved speed, and a noticeably smoother motion in a seaway. All structural modifications were executed by Cracker Boy Boatworks (Riviera Beach, FL) and inspected during construction by a marine surveyor (survey documentation available upon request).

The result is a rare opportunity: a proven, comfortable cruising catamaran with the waterline length, reserve buoyancy, and wave-piercing characteristics typically found on much larger performance cats.

Rollercoaster is not a typical Lagoon 420. It is a thoughtfully re-engineered cruising catamaran that retains the exceptional interior volume, cockpit-galley flow, and liveaboard comfort the model is known forwhile delivering the speed, motion control, and offshore confidence of a much longer vessel.

For sailors seeking a proven, long-range cruising platform with meaningful structural upgrades, serious energy independence, and professional execution throughout, Rollercoaster represents a rare and compelling opportunity.
