LAGOON 380
Owner's Manual
We share a common passion for the sea: we, LAGOON as
shipbuilders and you who want to live your passion on the Seven
Seas.
We are delighted to welcomeyou to the great family of LAGOON boat
owners and we congratulate you on it.
This manual was meant to help you to enjoy your boat comfortably
and safely. It includes the boat specifications, the equipment provided
or installed, the systems and tips on her operation and maintenance.
Read this manual carefully before you put out to sea so that you can
make the most of her and avoid any damage and any trouble. Get to
know your boat before you sail.
We keep improving our boats as we want you to benefit from the
technologicaldevelopments,newequipmentormaterialsandourown
experience. That is the reason why thespecifications and information
given are not contractual, they may be modifiedwithout prior notice or
up dates.

equipment or accessories or deal with some points or questions that
arenotrelevanttoyourownboat;ifindoubt,refertotheinventorythat
you received on delivery of your boat.
Ifthis isyourfirst boat orif you change to a new type of boat which you
are not used to, get some training in boat control and sailing to ensure
your safety and comfort. Your dealer, your international sailing
association or your yacht club will be very happy to recommend local
sailing schools or professional instructors.
Even if everything has been provided for and designed for the safety
of the boat and the safety of her users, don't forget that sailing highly
depends on the weather conditions, the sea condition, and that only
an experienced and very fit crew, handling a well-maintained boat can
sail satisfactorily.
The sea and wind conditions that correspond to the design
categories A,B or C are changeable and are dependent on the
hazards of unusually strong waves or gusty winds. Therefore total
safety cannot be guaranteed, even if your boat meets the
requirements of a category.
TheseaandthewaterarenotthenaturalenvironmentofManandone
has to respect their laws and strength.
Adapt the use of your boat to her condition that wears out with time
and use.
Our network of LAGOON authorized dealers will be at your dis-
posal to help you get acquainted with your boat and will be the
most qualified to take care of her maintenance.
Always listen to the weather forecast before you put out to sea.
Make sure the sea and wind conditions will correspond to the
category of your boat and you and your crew are able to han-
dle the boat in these conditions.
Any boat, however solid she may be, may be severely damaged if
badly used. This is not compatible with a secure navigation. Always
adapt the speedand direction of your boat to the conditions of the sea.
The'COLREG', an internationalregulation in order toprevent collision
atsea,published by theInternationalMaritimeOrganization,specifies
the steering and course regulations, the navigation lights etc.
throughout the world Make sure you know these regulations and you
have on board a manual that explains them.
In numerous countries,a licence, an authorization or a training course
is requested.
Make sure you have this legal authorization before you use your boat.
Always use an experienced technician for the maintenance of your
boat, the fitting of accessories and the carrying out of small
modifications. The written authorization of the builder or his legal
representative is compulsory for modifications that alter the
specifications of the boat, in particular the vertical layout of the
grounds (putting up of a radar, modification of the mast, change of the
engine etc.).
The users of the boat are informed of the following:
- The entire crew must be trained properly.
- The boat shall not be loaded more with than the maximum load re-
commended by the builder, in particular the total weight of the food
supplies, of the different equipment that are not supplied by the buil-
der and of the persons on board. The weight of the boat shall be pro-
perly distributed.
- The water in the bilge shall be kept at its minimum.
- The stability is reduced when you add weight in the upper parts.
- In case of heavy weather, the hatches, lockers and doors shall be
closed in order to minimize the risk of water coming in.
- The stability may be reduced when you tow a boat or when you lift
heavy weights with the davits or the boom.
- Breakers are serious dangers to stability.
- In the boat there shall be all the proper safety equipment (harness,
flares, liferaft etc.) depending on the type of boat, the country, the
weather
- The crew must be familiar with the use of all the safety equipment
and the emergency safety procedures (MOB, towing etc.).
-Anyoneonthedeckshall wear alifejacket or abuoyancyaid.Please
note that in some countries it is compulsory to wearan homologated
buoyancy aid permanently.
For the essential or optional equipment (engine, electronics
etc.) refer to their respective manual delivered with your boat.
Keep this manual in a safe place and hand it over to the new
owner if you sell your boat.
