Lagoon 42 | Blú Heron
Description
Meet Blú Heron — a Lagoon 42 catamaran from 2022, offering 4 cabins and waiting for you at her home berth in Hodge's Creek Marina | Parham Town, British Virgin Islands.
Up to 12 people sleep comfortably in the 4 cabins of Blú Heron, with 4 shower-equipped toilets shared between them; pillows and blankets are part of the price.
Boat equipment features a rolling mainsail.
At 41.99 ft long and 25.26 ft wide, and with 600 L of fuel, 500 L of water and a 114 kW engine, this boat is set up to stay out at anchor rather than run back to port.
Few charter bases in British Virgin Islands are as well placed as Hodge's Creek Marina | Parham Town — within your first day of sailing you can already swap the marina for a secluded bay, a waterfront konoba or an island village that most tourists never see.
