The way to your own Lagoon
Your Blue Year can become your own boat
Master Yachting sells and looks after Lagoon catamarans. If you buy #51 after your Blue Year, half of the charter fee you paid is credited towards the price:
| Your charter period | Credit towards the price |
|---|---|
| Half-year (168 days × €405) | €34,020 |
| 12 months (343 days × €385) | €66,027 |
| 24 months (693 days × €365) | €126,472 |
Work it out yourself: net daily rate × charter days, then half of it. All amounts net of VAT; hour packs and skipper training are not included. Alternatively, order a new Lagoon configured just for you; with YachtInvest it can earn charter income in the weeks you are not sailing.
