on our last video we made a decision to
buy a lagoon 46 and confirmed to the
whole number by making it 20% deposit of
the total amount of the boat today we
will go through the list of optionals we
have selected for our new lagoon 46
costs associated to it and some of the
rationale behind the selection process
before we get started please take a
second to hit the subscribe button below
and while you're there
consider leaving us a like that will
help our channel grow and be recommended
to a larger audience that may take
advantage of the content from this
channel let's get started
hello everyone I'm Edie and this is
Patricia we have selected an owners
version for our new Lagoon 46 there were
two main reasons for it one as a sailing
couple we wanted the additional comfort
of a owners version since the starboard
side of the lagoon 46 is fully dedicated
to our cabin and 2 we believe that the
resale value of our owners version can
be superior than a 4 cabin layout even
though the four cabin is a little bit
more expensive when you buy new usually
a three cabin catamaran are used by
private owners although the four cabin
version can also be privately owned many
are used for charter or used by a higher
number of people due to its larger
capacity creating additional wear and
tear along the years please keep in mind
one can find both versions at very
well-kept conditions or horrible
conditions I am just generalizing here
and trying to give you some of the
rationale we used on our decision making
process
after choosing how many cabins you will
have next selections the package you can
select from the manufacturer in our case
we went for the comfort equipment
configuration which contains all of the
items that you can see here on the
essential equipment plus the four items
on the comfort equipment configuration
for us it was important to go for the
comfort equipment configuration because
we wanted the extra luxury feel that
this package offers Lagoon offers use
several types about host trees colors
and materials we chose the gran comfort
marble we like light colors really liked
the plush feeling of the grand comfort
series we also learned that the drank
comfort series is a little bit more
padded than the original smart shark
standard upholstery that comes with the
boat on the forward and aft cockpits you
also have to purchase cushions so we're
gonna go for standard cushions from
Lagoon for the absent forward cockpit
and on the flybridge will go for the
sunbath cushions with a lifting backrest
that we believe that is a comfortable
option all electric fly brake winches
instead of the manual ones was an option
that we like this option gives you the
flat winder for the mainsail traveler
something new for the lagoons we looked
at this option at the boat show in Miami
and really liked it since it gives you a
better possibility for trimming the
mainsail
another option that we're gonna be
repeating on our new lagoon 46 is the
cold zero
Reagan poll this was an option that we
order from factory from our lagoon 42
this option also comes with the furler
and a starboard electric winch we used
it a lot on our last boat as we bought
the code zero sale and the spinnaker
sale that quipment we went for the for
underwater spotlights nothing gives us
more pleasure than being an anchor at
night and be able to see the marine life
under our boat
[Music]
we really wanted to vote for the tender
lift hydraulic platform with remote but
in my opinion almost 35,000 euros is a
prohibitive option so we're gonna be
happier with electrical assistance and
that utilizes flat with winder cables to
move the dingey up and down we chose the
aft cockpit and Trenton's
in cheek because we liked the look and a
few of it we opted for a sink in the
cockpit mainly because I'm hoping to
fish a lot and I'll tell you having a
sick in the cockpit was a long way in
terms of a smelly fish inside of the
boat on our last boat we did not have a
windlass remote control with a chain
counter at the helm station so we
thought this would be a nice addition
this time around
especially during crosses being safe
from the elements is crucial the
flybridge compositive bimini with
windscreen along with the sides around
compositive bimini with windows gives
you that protection that you seek during
long crossings
we opted as well to have the sides
around apt cockpit with windows so we
can have it fully enclosed whenever the
boat stays long periods in a marina
protecting the teak and the aft from the
rain Sun and other elements
having - yeah Mars 57 horse powers in
lieu of the 45 horsepower engine that
comes with a boat gives us enough power
and those low wind days to keep cruising
at around 6 knots with a very good range
on a sailboat you have several ways to
recharge your batteries you can use your
engine have a generator solar panels the
power of the wind and the power of the
water to generate energy we will have a
generator and solar panels along with a
big inverter to convert 12 volt into 220
to store the power that we are
generating for later use we have decided
to upgrade the acid batteries into gel
batteries the battery controller
unscreened a chart table shows the
battery level and run down state of the
battery bank on the left you can see the
location on board of the batteries the
love 146 comes with 2 300 liter tanks of
water having a water maker board is
crucial especially for long crossings
where you don't have a chance to stop on
board to refuel with water we chose to
have a 12-volt
63 litres an hour serie cover water
maker
the on and off switch is conveniently
located in the chart table and replacing
membranes and filters should be a easy
task
electric toilets is a must for everyone
that does not like that squeaky ways of
the manual toilet the double birth
optional in the Salone area comes in
handy for long crossings it includes
aluminum table feet too low and raise
the table but unfortunately the birth
only comes in standard upholstery
we like having fans around the boat
especially at anchor when we cannot use
the air conditioning fans come in handy
appliances extra for force 10 for burner
cooking table this extra replaces the
three burner that comes with the boat on
the lagoon 42 for some reason the knobs
got burned very easily and on this four
burner cooking table the knobs are
retractable so I believe will be a very
good option we'll also go for the forced
10 stainless steel oven which seems to
be a little bit bigger and have a better
finish we have also taken the option of
the microwave oven with grill washer and
dryer has proven to be a good addition
to the boat especially during long trips
here you can see the location of the
washer and dryer curtains on the salon
door and windows are great for privacy
we have also chosen our optional four
roller windows shades in all cabins
replacing the standard option that in my
opinion are ugly they also make an
annoying noise when you see that anchor
in a rolling spot electronics and
navigation systems are a crucial part of
every vessel we will spend a good amount
of time covering all of the systems that
we will have on our loom 46 but that
will cover our next video
