This week we are prepping to move the 450 to a private dock near the 50 so that we can work on our BULKHEADS. We know that this video has been anticipated by quite a lot of you, so let's get into it!

My belief is, if it weren't for Parley Revival ( ColIin) lagoon would have not taken accountability. Further is was Collin via video who supplied them with most of the information for Lagoon about bulkhead failures, repairs, and causes. He took a Rath of crap over it that most would have walked away from including from 450 owners. I am very glad you got a kit, yet still disappointed in lagoon for not covering ALL your costs in doing their bulkhead kit install/repairs. Love following your adventures. Hope to be at Annapolis show sat/Sunday and get to meet you all. Much respect and love.

It's really good that Collin put so much pressure on Lagoon to do the right thing here. And it was 100% Lagoon trying to pass the buck before this started impacting their bottom line. They might be doing it really well NOW, but the fact that their initial reaction was to try to hide this issue shows what kind of company they really are, and is why I will never own a Lagoon, not that I was likely to before. That was simply because I am not their target market, but now, even if they came out with a cat that was the kind of cat that I am interested in, I wouldn't touch it thanks to their behavior in this whole situation, only doing the right thing after being forced to by their bottom line.

My stomach turned a little when I see the title, especially after all the long hours your family put into this cat. I was always a little surprised you never mentioned bulkheads before, knowing you had done the video with Colin. So glad your cat's bulkheads are good! Fair winds!

just a fyi from a carpenter...checking a vertical surface is "plumb" when the level shows the bubble between the lines...it's "level" when checking a horizontal surface....i do dig your work on both boats ..you and your family are awesome

If it’s a tensioning issue wouldn’t you see it across many other catamaran brands? This is a very specific Lagoon issue. Poor bulkhead design IMO

This is the third 450 that I am waching the bulkheads off.

Sounds like Lagoon hired you to support them and downplay their problems

How can these wonderful people not have 30k subscribers?! Such great viewing, super informative & just a beautiful family 👪 ❤️. All the best from Queensland, Australia ✌️👍

Vertical assessment is referred as "plumb" on the level (tool).

I thought part of Colin's issue was the bulk heads not being properly bedded to the bottom hull? As I recall, there was a gap between the bulk head and hull so that the sides were bearing the loads. Made me claustrophobic just watching him crawl down below the sole like that.

Great episode! After watching all the Lagoon 450 repair videos, I’m glad to see that she doesn’t have damaged bulkheads too! Good you will apply the reinforcement kit per factory spec though, as it will be one less concern and chore for the new owner. Wish I could experience the Annapolis Boat show and see you all there! Have fun!! I know you will be working but also it should be a little fun🎉 downtime from boat projects for everyone as well .

Tensioning , Hell there rig was waving around like a drunken sailor , Any further id bet the mast would have gone along with part of the yacht .

glad that your boat is ok. What's apparent is the lack of proper engineering process by Lagoon.

I'm glad you took the time to do all your research and gather all the information before you started this journey to bulkheads!

Well over 200 owners have had the same failures as well as it takes no rocket scientist to KNOW that somewhere there was cost cutting and this is the absolute most important area of the vessel!!!!! The ply being installed in that fashion is an epic failure from conception to actual placement! To save wieght!? So for a few pounds on each BH, to not be top heavy others may say, I would say perhaps all of the above! Regardless as a person born and raised on the GOM, this failure is what it is! The fact that they sold so many, I would say that they are so fortunate to not have deaths on their hands as a result of the poor engineering, cost cutting or simple ignorance of the single most important structual component!

I hate agree with the rest…Lagoon screwed up with quality control. I don’t think they are high on my list of great cats right now.

Thanks for sharing the information. It’s good that Lagoon came around to offer the repair/reinforce kit and work.

This is not the first channel I've seen with these damaged bulkheads.

I think the rig tension is excessive on Lagoons and FP's and considering the cheap arse plywood bulkheads this is a dangerous set up. These boats are probably ok for warmer latitudes but I think they will suffer badly if sailed into the roaring forties for example. Great party / charter boats but calling them Bluewater boats is a massive overstatement.
