Refuse to repair and get a judgment. Class action!!

Oof! That’s a big project! If Rich and I can do what we’ve done to our boat, you two can definitely do this! We’ll be watching!

Thanks for sharing, great impression on what to keep an eye out when getting a Lagoon Second Hand, and what might be involved.

That is a lot of parts! Can’t wait to see how you put it all together.

"great video"????? You're kidding right? Raced past all the components, showed more or the packaging than the components, didn't give credit to _parlay revival_ didn't explain how to use a sextant, and most importantly, no women in bikinis!

The kit is to fix the bulkheads. Parlay found many other areas of separation like under the cockpit. Have you checked all those. I feel really sorry for all the Lagoon owners out there. And to add insult to injury, brokers are still happily recommending these boats to buyers.

Well at least there are a ton of YT videos on stripping out and repairing Lagoon 450 bulkheads...This is the first one of the repair kits I've seen so this will be an interesting series. Do you plan on setting the boat on pylons similar to Parlay?

The repair is done and video uploading as I write this - it was very difficult to find a marina in the San Francisco Bay that had a wide enough boat lift to haul us out, so this was an “in water” repair….

Oh boy another 450 with broken bulkheads! Who would have guessed. They really screwed the design on these and I feel bad for all the owners impacted. As others have pointed out check out Colin’s Parlay Revival KZfaq channel he repaired his on his own with no kit from lagoon which I feel his repair is going to be better in the long run. Sailing Dauntless is also repairing their 450 as well even with the Lagoon kit even though theirs hasn’t broken yet. They claimed over tightening the rigging on these is the cause and that could be part of the problem but based on what is unfolding I would suspect this is more of design flaw. Good luck with the fix!

@@Blortt5000 thank you for the detailed response that all makes perfect sense I hope people will see it and help understand the total big picture and what really needs to happen to fix these 450’s for the long term.

Lagoon tried to put the blame on over-tightening the rigging for us too, but eventually agreed to send the repair kit. We felt the kit was pretty good so used that set of instructions along with a boat yard with excellent skills!

think this will be 10% of the fix that you need to do on the boat, still need a lot of fiber and plywood.

@finscreenname Жыл бұрын

Ya, there is nothing there to fix the plywood upright bulkheads. Thinking this kit is to replace the pieces that can't be bought local.

@patshively6094 Жыл бұрын

I send the French/Lagoon a repair bill or send this defective boat to a Lagoon dealer to fix. If they refuse, LAWSUIT TIME. 20% of the 1100 450's made are defective. That's BULL!! This devalued your boat $100,000. I'll bet you have crack's every where. Good luck.

What a joke. You pay over $1 million for a boat and the build quality is subpar. Then the builder wants you to fix it yourself. I'm so happy I didn't buy a lagoon

@HoustonRoad Жыл бұрын

And all because a boat owner ( chief engineer) found the defect on his 450. The company hasn’t been great to Colin. I wouldn’t touch those boats.
