We are pleased to present the Samantha Jane, a 2004 Lagoon 43 Power Catamaran for sale. She is an excellent blue-water vessel, outfitted & prepared for extended cruising. Owners planned a multi-year stay in The Bahamas, however life events have changed so we now offer her For Sale. The boat has always been in private ownership and never chartered. She has an excellent survey from when the current owners bought her, showing this boat to be in great condition and has been improved since.
Layout & Accommodations Originally a charter configuration she was previously converted to an owner’s configuration with the starboard forward berth also converted to a pantry that includes both washer & dryer. She has 3 electric heads, with the fourth head converted to a shower. Connecting saloon & cockpit, separated by a sliding glass door, provides 2 dining tables for entertaining. There is a lot of storage throughout. She has 2 poly tanks for fresh water (750 liters) with each head having an individual holding tank.

This vessel has recently been outfitted for potentially three-years of continuous cruising in The Bahamas, so she is ready to go.

She has generated the most amazing memories in the time we’ve owned her, from the first day she makes dreams happen.
