WORTH THE WAIT
2012 Lagoon 560 Owners Version Never Chartered Extensively Upgraded Truly Cruise Ready
There are boats that have spent their lives tied to a dock, and there are boats that have fulfilled the dreams they were built for.
Worth The Wait belongs to the second group.
For the past three years, she has been our familys home as we explored the Caribbean together, creating memories that will last a lifetime. She has never been in charter service and has been continuously upgraded and meticulously maintained by owners who invested in her for the joy of cruisingnot for resale.
Today, she represents a rare opportunity to purchase one of the most thoughtfully upgraded, privately owned Lagoon 560s available.
A Boat That Inspires Confidence
One of the biggest questions prospective owners ask is:
Is a 56-foot catamaran too much boat?
Our family once asked that same question.
We werent seasoned sailors. We werent a charter crew. We were simply a family with two young daughters and a dream of exploring the Caribbean together.
What we discovered is exactly why the Lagoon 560 has earned its reputation as one of the worlds most successful cruising catamarans.
Her exceptional visibility, forgiving handling, spacious layout, and thoughtfully designed living areas made life aboard remarkably comfortable and surprisingly manageable. She gave us the confidence to chase a dream we once thought was beyond our reach.
If youve ever wondered whether your own cruising dream is possible, we hope our experience aboard Worth The Wait reminds you that it just might be.
Designed for Living, Not Just Sailing
The Lagoon 560 remains one of the most respected luxury cruising catamarans ever built because she balances spacious accommodations with capable offshore performance.
Whether entertaining friends at anchor, enjoying dinner in the cockpit at sunset, relaxing on the expansive flybridge, or spending months exploring island after island, every space aboard has been designed to make life on the water feel effortless.
Its easy to understand why so many families choose this model for extended cruising.
Thoughtfully Upgraded for Extended Cruising
Every improvement made aboard Worth The Wait had one purpose:
To make an already exceptional yacht even better for long-term cruising.
Unlike many yachts that are prepared for sale with cosmetic updates, our investments focused on the systems experienced cruisers value mostimproving reliability, comfort, safety, and self-sufficiency.
Highlights include significant investments in:
Rather than inheriting a lengthy list of deferred maintenance, the next owner benefits from years of thoughtful ownership and continuous improvement.

Never Chartered. Exceptionally Maintained.
Unlike many yachts of this size and vintage, Worth The Wait has never served in charter.
She has been privately owned, extensively cruised, and carefully maintained by owners who expected to keep sailing for yearsnot prepare her for market.
That philosophy is reflected throughout the yacht.
More Than a Boat
Every boat has specifications.
Every boat has equipment.
Not every boat has a story.
For us, Worth The Wait became much more than transportation. She became our home, our classroom, our front porch, and the place where our daughters grew through experiences few families ever have the opportunity to share.
Now its time for another family to begin writing their own story.
Whether your dream is retirement cruising, island hopping through the Bahamas, exploring the Caribbean, or simply owning one of Lagoons finest flagship catamarans, Worth The Wait is ready for her next adventure.
Begin Your Adventure
The expensive upgrades have been made.
The systems have been refined.
The memories are waiting.
If youve been searching for a Lagoon 560 that stands apart from the ordinary, we invite you to step aboard Worth The Wait and experience the difference for yourself.
Some of lifes greatest adventures begin with the courage to leave the dock. We hope Worth The Wait inspires your family as much as she inspired ours.

We had an outstanding experience working with Andrew Hodgdon to find our dream boat, an Outremer 52.
We were actually referred to him by several different people—clients who had been very happy working with him, as well as boat owners who were planning to use him to sell their own boats. After working with Andrew ourselves, we completely understand why he came so highly recommended.
We worked with him for several months, and from start to finish, he was exceptional. Andrew is incredibly knowledgeable and truly an expert when it comes to performance catamarans. He took the time to understand exactly what we were looking for, was always responsive and organized, and never made us feel pressured throughout the process.
Andrew went above and beyond to arrange showings for us in multiple states and even traveled to another state to be there with us for the sea trial. His expertise and guidance gave us tremendous confidence as we evaluated such a significant purchase.
The entire process could have been overwhelming, but he made it remarkably smooth. He was on top of every detail and made the paperwork and closing process easy, working seamlessly with his team at The Multihull Company.
What impressed us most was that he genuinely had our best interests in mind. And his support didn’t end when the sale was completed. He has continued to stay in touch and has made it clear that he is still available to help us if we ever need him. That kind of follow-through is rare and speaks volumes about the kind of broker he is.
Buying an Outremer 52 was a huge decision and a major investment, and having someone with his knowledge, experience, responsiveness, and integrity made the entire experience so much easier and more enjoyable.
We couldn’t recommend Andrew Hodgdon more highly. If you’re looking for a yacht broker—especially if you’re considering a performance catamaran—we would choose him again without hesitation. The fact that so many people recommended him to us was the reason we called him, and after working with him, we would be one of those people recommending him to others.
I highly recommend Andrew Hodgdon. He served as our buyers broker. He is responsive, highly knowledgeable and very experienced. He is also an excellent guide and counselor before, during and after the boat purchase process. If you are looking for a good-sailing cat, he seems to collect most of the available boats on the better-sailing side of the market. Top marks.
Andrew did an excellent job getting me started on my new adventures. Worked with my conflicting schedule. Is very knowledgeable in the catamaran industry. 😎
I recently sold my Lagoon 450 with the Multihull Team. I would highly recommend their services. The professionalism and personal treatment I received was greatly appreciated.
Great Service, Great People
Helped me through the process.
I would go through them again in a future purchase.

More About MultihullAnswer a few quick questions for your number. Every answer is saved to your Buyer Profile, so every boat on the site is priced for you.
A TMC buyer's broker will send line-by-line costs, what to check at survey, and how this boat compares with others that fit your plan.
Broad estimate by TMC based on the listing's published equipment, typical installed costs for this size of boat, and yard rates in the selected region. Not a survey, a quote or the listing broker's representation, and not a substitute for a professional marine survey. Verify all equipment and condition through a survey before you buy. Delivery, freight and financing figures are estimates; your broker confirms them.
