L400 hidden problem #lagoon400


Bruce Wacker
 

I had some cracks appear on the port bulkhead where the fresh water pump is mounted behind the port water tank. Upon investigation and after removing both water tanks to get behind the port one it turns out that the shelf holding the water tanks does not drain, but slopes aft. Water apparently from the anchor collects under the water tank and rotted out a considerable portion of the shelf, weakening the whole area. See pics and beware.


 

Hi Bruce,
? ? ? ? ? ? ? I believe this issue is a free modification for all L400 owners, I guess up to a particular build number. I have an L400S2, hull number 443.

?I had the drainage modification carried out in Greece before returning to Spain. It is a simple mod. I was quite staggered by the amount of hidden water that drained out, it must have been draining for at least 15 minutes. I was originally notified by the agent that sold the Catamaran to me and it was issued by Lagoon.

Kind regards

This is a well known problem I had my shelf completely replaced cost all paid by Lagoon, as were other owners. Regards Peter

Thanks. What is the process for submitting a claim to Lagoon??


Bruce Wacker
 

Any other known problems I should know about? How about mast head sheaves wear chafing halyards??

Suggest go through original dealer who sold the boat and get them to pursue the claim. Don’t be surprised if Lagoon come back and say it was operator error and not their responsibility. ?

I don't know the original dealer which would be in France. Any US suggestions? I'm in Hawaii and I don't know of any here.
