----------------------------
Nautilus Yacht Management is proud to present this beautifully presented 2017 Lagoon 42 Owner's Version. Launched in late 2017, this vessel is a 2018 model.
Having completed her half circumnavigation by way of the Med, Atlantic, Pacific and down to NZ, Inajeen is now located at a long term berth at the beautiful Marina Port Moselle in Nouméa, enviably located a short passage away to Fiji or Australia. New Caledonia is also the gateway to Indonesia for those wishing to continue on the increasingly popular route to Europe or the Caribean via Thailand, the Seychelles and South Africa.
Equipped and continually improved and upgraded to suit long term Bluewater cruising, Inajeen is presented turnkey and in exceptional condition, having always been lovingly maintained. She is ready to continue her circumnavigation and comes with a comprehensive inventory.
Few boats have won as many awards as the Lagoon, including the prestigious Cruising World Magazine Best Boat Of The Year in 2017 for their mid size multihulls.
The Lagoon 42 is a premier choice for Bluewater cruising. This multi-award-winning catamaran has won several major international boating accolades upon its release and perfectly balances ocean-crossing seaworthiness with exceptional living space.
Its aft-stepped mast reduces pitching, while its short-handed sail plan allows a couple or just one person to manage it easily. Furthermore, its robust build and spacious layout provide high comfort during long passages.
Key features that make the Lagoon 42 ideal for Bluewater sailing include:
Specialising in Bluewater cruising vessels and with very strict listing criteria to ensure suitability for serious ocean voyages, Nautilus Yacht Management has built a reputation over the past 15 years as a point of reference for families looking for a liveaboard cruising yacht. This Lagoon 42 Owner's Version is a rare find, and an ideal choice for someone looking for something to take them anywhere in the world, yet without the lengthy, costly upgrades to transform a production catamaran into a yacht suitable for safe and comfortable ocean passages and independence from port for extended period of time.
With representation in French Polynesia to Fiji, New Zealand and Australia to assist cruisers along South Pacific route, we are here to help both sellers and buyers with the logistics involved from registration to insurance, delivery, import, survey, storage and crewing if required. Ex- cruisers ourselves we just strive to help others begin their journey on the ocean.
If you feel that Inajeen could be what you are looking for, please get in touch! Our team can organise a private video viewing, discuss the purchase process with you as well as answer your questions, put you in touch with the owners if you wish, assist with organising your visit, purchase, delivery, insurance, berthing, crewing, etc.
A WORD FROM THE OWNERS:
"Our dream of sailing around the world became a reality when we began living and sailing full-time aboard *Inajeen* in March 2022.
We have joyfully embraced this life as 'nomads of the sea,' encountering wonderful people both on the water and ashore while visiting 27 countries.
We will never forget the extraordinary, unforgettable moments spent in idyllic anchorages, or our crossings of the Atlantic in 2022 and the Pacific in 2024.
Choosing the right boat for such an adventure is paramount—both for comfort on board and for the safety of the crew.
We watched many videos by sailors on long-distance voyages and reached out to some of them for valuable advice on selecting our future traveling companion.
Drawing on our own twenty years of experience with motor vessels—the last of which was a catamaran—we were able to develop a precise and detailed set of requirements.
The 3-cabin version of the Lagoon 42 met our expectations, ticking virtually every box.
We were looking for a proven, well-regarded catamaran that offered seamless movement between the saloon, the cockpit, and the transoms. We wanted a safe, accessible layout, featuring spacious transoms, minimal steps to reach the cockpit, and an easy transition between the dinghy and the boat.
The helm station offers a perfect view of all four corners of the vessel, making harbor maneuvers much easier. It also facilitates communication between the skipper and the rest of the crew, while providing protection from the elements via a full enclosure.
The significant beam of the Lagoon 42 (7.68 m) is a major asset, providing generous living space, secure side decks, and cabins with..." King-size island double beds (170 x 200 cm).
The 57 hp Yanmar inboard engines—highly robust, efficient, and economical (consuming 1.8 liters per engine at 1500 rpm)—enabled us to easily enter lagoons known for being difficult to access, particularly in Polynesia and Fiji.
With over 1,150 units built, the Lagoon 42 is the world’s best-selling cruising catamaran, supported by an after-sales service network that spans many countries.
After a rigorous search, we discovered a true gem in the Mediterranean, more than 1,000 kilometers from our home. We were won over instantly!
The original owners were parting with her reluctantly, due to health reasons.
The boat was in excellent condition, having seen very little use during the Covid period.
Following a brief period of reflection in September 2021, our lives took a new turn when we finalized the purchase of *Inajeen*.
After selling our primary residence, we treated ourselves to a four-day training course with a professional skipper during the winter, crossing the Gulf of Lion. Navigating our first night watches in demanding sea conditions confirmed the Lagoon 42’s sailing capabilities and allowed us to acquire the necessary skills. During this voyage, the skipper also acknowledged the vessel’s excellent seaworthiness. It was a wonderful, highly educational experience!
We moved aboard permanently in March 2022, having first modified the saloon to accommodate a large, 220V domestic refrigerator/freezer. We also made several upgrades to enhance comfort—such as adjusting the table and adding storage space—and to increase our self-sufficiency by installing a stainless-steel arch for solar panels.
We particularly enjoyed the spacious forward deck, with its large trampoline—a perfect spot for relaxing or socializing as the sun sets. Throughout these five years, we have paid special attention to regular and rigorous maintenance, which has kept the boat in excellent condition and ensured the safety of our passengers.
We had planned to continue our magnificent journey and complete a circumnavigation of the globe, but health issues now compel us to settle in New Caledonia, where we will have access to French healthcare facilities.
We hope that *Inajeen* will bring just as much happiness to its new owners." Ben and Françoise, Noumea, November 2026
