1987-1996

A first generation of catamarans was born with the Lagoon 55, 47, 57 and 67: owners' boats for offshore cruising.
The Beneteau group took over the Jeanneau shipyards in 1996 and handed over the development of the Lagoon brand, a legacy of its acquisition, to Construction Navale Bordeaux. The use of high-tech composite was implemented in the shipyard.
