The 5 cabin’s bareboat catamaran Lagoon 50 was built in 2019 and it is docked in Newport, USA. The Lagoon 50 (2019) can accommodate up to 10 people in 5 cabins and it has 4 toilets. The overall length of the boat is 49 ft / 14,8 m. The main equipment (find the complete list on the ’Equipments’ tab): bow thruster, GPS chart plotter, autopilot, dinghy, bimini top and it’s obligatory extras: divers inspection, sales tax, yacht insurance, final cleaning. The main sail is full batten. You can check-in from 17:00 h and check-out until 09:00 h.
Why charter this Lagoon 50
5 cabins for 10 berths means about 2 guests per cabin, so bag storage and sleeping turns are clear before departure. 2.5 guests per head matters on early marina mornings, when showers, breakfast and casting off compete for time. At 14,8 m, this catamaran works best when swim stops still leave time for the evening berth.
Best charter fit
Lagoon 50 suits crews comparing cabin separation, luggage storage and bathroom timing across 5 cabins and 4 heads. The catamaran beam is useful at anchor, but marina planning needs wider berth options and earlier docking choices.
Block Island and the Narragansett harbours from Newport
Newport is American yachting’s spiritual home, its Gilded-Age mansions above a harbour packed with classic yachts at regatta time, sitting at the mouth of Narragansett Bay. The week really turns on one question: whether to commit to the open crossing out to Block Island. Jamestown’s quiet coves are a short reach across the bay and work for the first afternoon if the handover leaves daylight and the bay is calm. T.F. Green Airport (PVD), by Providence, is closest; Boston (BOS) is a longer drive. Block Island means an exposed crossing of Rhode Island Sound, where fog and a building sea breeze narrow the window, so pick a clear, calm day and leave time to get back without banking on the last day. The rest of the days keep to the bay, its harbours only a short passage apart. The Elizabeth Islands and Cuttyhunk are more open crossings again, ones for a fuller trip.
