Lagoon catamaran
Lagoon - Sailing 4 Handicaps: a round-the-world trip to help others


Lagoon is sponsoring an impressive initiative planned by the two owners of a Lagoon 410. Wojtek Czyz and Elena Brambilla, who are both top level athletes, are planning a highly unique and original trip around the world, aiming to reach out to people with disabilities. Wojtek lost his left leg following a sports accident, and now has a prosthetic limb. After extensive rehab, he pursued a career in sports for athletes with disabilities, winning several times medals at the Paralympics.


Imagine, their Lagoon 410 (No.125), as well as being their home for the trip, will be transformed into a clinic for medical practitioners all over the world, and will even be used as a workshop to produce prosthetic limbs.


Lagoon has undertaken a series of alterations to their boat, at no charge of course.


The next step in the adventure will be when they set out from Hamburg in May, to sail around the world for 4 years.
