Description
Scenic Route is a beautifully maintained Lagoon 380, offering the perfect blend of comfort and performance. With four spacious cabins, it’s an ideal choice for cruising, providing plenty of room to relax and enjoy the journey. Nestled in the heart of the Caribbean, your sailing possibilities are endless—whether you’re chasing secluded anchorages or island-hopping through paradise. Fully equipped and ready to set sail, this catamaran is more than just a boat—it’s your ticket to an unforgettable adventure.
Built in 2018, Scenic Route was designed with ease of handling in mind, making it perfect for solo sailors or small crews. Its well-balanced size ensures effortless maneuverability without sacrificing stability or comfort.
Originally placed in charter, the boat saw only two short trips before the pandemic halted operations. Soon after, it found a dedicated private owner who has since invested over $50,000 in upgrades, transforming her into a true cruising vessel. With top-tier additions like lithium batteries, a high-quality dinghy, a built-in water maker, and more, Scenic Route is primed and ready to take you wherever your dreams may lead.
