A fellow owner Paul Griffin posted the announcement this morning: Dear Sir or Madam, ? Maintaining a permanent focus on the reliability and safety for our customers in our boat building is always a high priority objective for CNB?LAGOON. ? ? The safety standards that apply to Catamarans oblige us to fit our boats with emergency exits in case the boat capsizes. That is why our Catamarans are produced with escape hatches under the deck bridge. ? ? Since 2007, we have installed GO?OT brand fixed hatches, made of a ¡°Securit¡± glass glued onto an aluminium frame and screwed on each hull. In case of capsize of the boat, the glass hatch must be broken allowing the crew¡¯s evacuation. ? ? However, over the past 12 years, since we have been equipping our catamarans with these products, we have faced a few rare cases of the glass detaching from its aluminium frame, causing water entry into the boat. This has revealed that those escape hatches have no safety device to prevent the fall of the glass in case of detachment. ? ? LAGOON?has designed with its supplier GOIOT retaining parts to secure these escape hatches easily, preventing the glass from falling in case of detachment. ? LAGOON?has set up a technical team ready to work with you to organize the installation -? at no cost to you ¨C of these retaining parts which can equipped your boat. This team can be contacted at the following e-mail address :Lagoon19009@... ? In each e-mail that you send us, please indicate the boat type and identification serial number, dealer name where you bought the boat and/or the one of your boat maintenance shipyard. ? ? THIS NOTIFICATION IS ONLY FOR CATAMARANS?BUILT FROM YEARS 2007 TO 2019 AND EQUIPPED WITH GOIOT BRAND ESCAPE FIXED HATCHES. ? If your boat was sold to a third party, kindly inform us of their name and address by return mailLagoon19009@... ? ? Thank you for your understanding and waiting for your reply, ? ? Yours Faithfully, ? ? Yann MASSELOT Chief executive On Fri, Feb 7, 2020 at 4:56 AM Arlene Huber <ahubercpa@...> wrote:
