FOR SALE — Lagoon 440 Owner’s Version
The Closest Thing to a Brand-New 2026 Lagoon 440 from the Factory
Modernized • Lightweight • Stronger • Upgraded for Performance • Built for Blue-Water Cruising
This is a 2006 Lagoon 440 Owner’s Version, extensively modernized, upgraded, and rebuilt by MVI Boat Composites.
The original hull is from 2006 and remains in excellent condition. The rig and engines are also in very good condition — and almost everything else onboard has been newly built, upgraded, or replaced to a modern 2026 standard.
In many ways, this is the closest thing you can find to a brand-new Lagoon 440 from the factory — because nearly everything inside and onboard has been built new.
New marine-grade wiring.
New electrical system.
New panels and switches.
New plumbing.
New pumps and freshwater systems.
New lightweight composite interior.
New beds, sofas, cabinets, tables, and flooring.
New galley equipment.
New smart power system.
New finishes throughout.
This is not just a cosmetic refit.
It is a complete modernization and performance upgrade of a proven blue-water catamaran platform.
Built on the legendary Lagoon 440, this boat now offers a rare combination of proven design, modern systems, lower weight, stronger structure, offshore confidence, and luxury comfort.

Why This Lagoon 440 Is Different
Most older catamarans come with years of hidden maintenance: old wiring, old plumbing, tired interiors, heavy factory furniture, aging pumps, worn systems, and outdated equipment.
This Lagoon 440 is different.
At MVI Boat Composites, we upgraded this boat with one clear goal:
To keep the proven Lagoon 440 platform, while bringing the boat as close as possible to a new 2026 cruising catamaran standard.
The result is a Lagoon 440 that is:
Lighter
Stronger
Quieter
More modern
More comfortable
Easier to maintain
Better prepared for offshore cruising
Upgraded for improved performance

Performance Upgrade Through Weight Reduction
One of the most important upgrades on this boat is the major reduction in weight.
The original heavy wood furniture and molded factory units were removed and replaced with lightweight composite and honeycomb construction.
Instead of traditional plywood, the new interior was built using advanced composite materials, then bonded and glassed into the hulls. This creates a stronger, more solid feel while removing unnecessary weight.
Less weight means:
Better light-wind performance
Easier acceleration
Higher average passage speeds
Less load on the structure
More efficient long-distance cruising
A quieter and more solid interior feel
The interior does more than look beautiful — it becomes part of the boat’s structure, supporting, stiffening, and strengthening the hulls.

Factory-Style Sugar Scoop Extensions
The sterns were professionally extended and fully blended into the original hull lines, creating a clean factory-style appearance.
The top surface is finished with original-style molded non-skid, giving the extensions the same factory look, safety, and walking surface as the original boat.
The sugar scoop extensions improve:
More speed from the longer waterline
Easier access in and out of the dinghy
Safety — added flotation
This is not a simple add-on.
It was built as an integrated part of the boat, with a factory-style finish that looks like it belongs there.

Structural Reinforcement — Offshore Ready
Key structural areas were upgraded and reinforced using epoxy, vacuum process, and marine composite construction standards.
Upgrades include:
Main bulkheads reinforced port-to-starboard
Factory tabbing replaced and upgraded
Additional Lagoon reinforcement areas improved
Bridge deck strengthened for offshore loads
Lightweight composite interior bonded into the hulls
Key load areas reinforced for serious blue-water cruising
The result is a stronger, stiffer, and more confident offshore cruising catamaran.

New 2026 Interior & Systems
Almost everything onboard has been renewed, rebuilt, or upgraded.

New lightweight composite cabinets
New beds
New sofas
New tables
New salon furniture

New interior comfort upgrades
The boat feels fresh, solid, clean, and modern — like a new-generation cruising catamaran built on the proven Lagoon 440 platform.

Luxury Lightweight Teak Interior
The interior was finished with real 1 mm teak veneer, giving the warm, elegant look of real teak without the heavy weight of traditional solid wood or plywood construction.
The result is:
Lighter • Stronger • Quieter • More Luxurious
This interior was designed for serious cruising, long-term comfort, and high-end appearance — without compromising performance.

Built by MVI Boat Composites
At MVI Boat Composites, we specialize in composite upgrades, structural reinforcement, lightweight interiors, sugar scoop extensions, and performance improvements for cruising catamarans — with a strong focus on Lagoon models.
This Lagoon 440 is our showcase build.
It demonstrates how a proven production catamaran can be modernized, strengthened, lightened, and upgraded for better real-world cruising performance — while keeping the comfort and layout that made the Lagoon 440 one of the most popular cruising catamarans in the world.
This design philosophy is now part of the MVI Boat Composites brand and is available as upgrade packages for other Lagoon owners.

Performance Philosophy
This boat was built with one main idea:
Reduce unnecessary weight, strengthen the right areas, modernize the systems, and create a better offshore cruising catamaran.
By replacing heavy plywood furniture with lightweight composite construction, reinforcing key structural areas, and upgrading the boat with modern systems, this Lagoon 440 becomes faster, stronger, quieter, and more efficient.
Owners can expect:
Better acceleration
Better light-wind performance
More comfortable offshore passages
Less structural stress
A more solid and quiet interior
Improved long-term cruising reliability
This is a Lagoon 440 upgraded for performance — not by making it extreme, but by making it smarter, lighter, stronger, and more modern.

25 knots. Effortless. Controlled.
Watch her glide over the swell like it’s nothing.

Engineered to the next level. Redefining what a dinghy can be.

For reference to the boat we currently have for sale — which went through this full weight-reduction and structural reinforcement project , in this video you can see the actual sea trial after removing 1.3 tons (~2,900 lbs) from the boat.
At only 1600 RPM (against current), One engine …the boat cruises at 6.2–6.5 knots SOG.
At 1800 RPM → 7.2 -7.5 knots
At 2000 RPM → 8.2–8.5 knots on ONE engine
Same engines. Same boat. Completely different performance.
Less weight means lower fuel consumption, reduced engine load, longer range, and a much more efficient cruising profile.
This is the impact of high-end composite engineering — not cosmetic upgrades.

🚀 LAUNCH DAY – OUR FIRST FULL CARBON DINGHY

We’re proud to introduce the very first dinghy built under our name.

This is not just another tender.
This is a 100% full carbon performance dinghy, designed for serious boats and serious owners.

⚫ Weight-Tiller version (bare hull, no console): 51 kg
⚫ Weight with full console ,sits,fuel compartment : 68 kg
⚫ Length: 3.84 m ( 12.6 ft )
⚫ Designed for yachts 45 ft and up
⚫ design for outboard motor from 10 HP up to 60 HP

Every line, every surface, every detail was built with one goal:
Create a high-end, lightweight, ultra-strong carbon tender that looks as powerful as it performs.

From the aggressive matte-black hull…
to the electric blue interior…
to the precision-built console and layout —
this dinghy is a statement piece as much as it is a tool.

🌊 This first unit will live on the davits of a Lagoon 440, and we can’t wait to see many more of these riding behind great boats around the world.

This is just the beginning.

Welcome to the future of carbon tenders.

🔹 Composite Lifting Point Build — From A to Z

🔧 Engineered Load. Not Just Hardware.

Every proper lifting point starts with the hull shape.
We take a direct template from the dinghy’s underside to create a perfectly matched base.

Then the structure is built using 12K carbon fiber strands formed in an Omega shape, becoming part of the base itself — not just bonded on top. This spreads the load into the hull instead of concentrating stress in one spot.

This isn’t an installation.
This is structural engineering in carbon.
