This boat is currently on route to Connecticut and will be available to view by July 1.After six years of exploring the world, our kids have grown up and we are sadly saying goodbye to this period of our lives. As we transition back to land life we are starting to share that Dafne is looking for new owners. We are available to deliver her and help with the transition. This Lagoon 500 (hull #97) was originally customized by a liveaboard, long-distance cruising family and sailed from France to Australia over 6 years as their children grew. It was purchased by her current owners in Australia, another liveaboard, cruising family of five. They completed their own circumnavigation, sailing west to the U.S. over six years. Her owners maintained and upgraded all safety and comfort features to a high level (lithium and solar, new rig, hardtop bimini). Now that her current owners’ children have left home, she is ready to take her next passengers around the world. Dafne II is blue-water ready and outfitted for a safe and comfortable home life.With an 11kw generator, 1200ah Enerdrive lithium battery system, and 2.1 kw solar she is designed to run large household-sized appliances including washing machine/dryer, induction cooktop, and Bosch upright 264 liter fridge/freezer. Set up for family blue water cruising, Dafne II features a 220 lph sea recovery aquamatic water maker, 6 air-con units, center-console tender with 30HP 4-stroke outboard, hardtop bimini with surrounds, cockpit surrounds, water toys, and all the tools and spares for any adventure. With a Hydranet Zoom mainsail (2019) and new genoa (2024), Dafne II performs very well under sail and is easily handled shorthanded from her high-visibility flybridge equipped with fully electric winches and new electronics.Highlights and Upgrades: NEW Genoa (2024) NEW AIS 650 (2023) NEW Yanmar SD60 saildrives (2020) NEW solar arch with built in racks for five SCUBA tanks (2022) Coppercoat (5 coats) applied October 2023 Re-engineered davits to handle a large (500kg+) tender (2022) NEW trampolines (2021) NEW crossbeam, seagull striker, retractable bowsprit and fully aluminum anchor roller (corrosion-proof), (2022) NEW electric flush macerators in all heads (4) (2020) NEW Axiom 12 chartplotter (2020) NEW Raymarine doppler radar (2020) NEW Raymarine i70s at helm (2020) NEW Icom VHF with Commandmic at helm (2020) NEW hardtop bimini added in 2019 with Strataglass clears and Phifertex sunshades (2019) NEW main and spinnaker halyards (2022) NEW genoa sheets (2023) NEW windlass motor (2020) NEW cockpit surrounds, clears and Phifertex sunshade, include door for full, cold-weather enclosure (2022)Specs Engines & Drives 2x Yanmar 4JH4-TE 75 hp turbo charged engines 2x Yanmar SD60 sail drives (new 2020) Full engine spares including head gasket, molded hoses, and water pumps 2x 430-liter fuel tanks (960 liter total) Highfield 360 aluminum hull RIB with 30 hp Honda four-stroke outboard and center console (2018) Electrical 1200 ah Enerdrive lithium battery system with BMS (2018) 2x VICTRON QUATTRO 3000 Inverter Chargers (2018) 2x Enerdrive DC2DC chargers (2018) 2.1 kw solar - 4x 360 watt Sunpower panels mounted over the stern walkway (2018), 2x 310 panels on hardtop bimini (2020), 4x Tristar MPPT 60 controllers 220V Shore Power Pack ONAN GENSET 11Kva 1500rpm 220V / 50Hz + COCOON 3x starter batteries 6x unit Cruisair A/C 48000 BTU 220V for 4 cabin version Stereo with speakers in saloon, cockpit, and flybridge Starlink internet (2023) Yacht Router 4G and wifi (2018) Iridium GO with external antenna (2018) Flatscreen TV (2020) Blue underwater lights (2023) Starlink 2023 Safety 10-person Plastimo liferaft (serviced 2023) Child netting surround on deck EPIRB ACR Ditch kit Flare, fire extinguishers, etc. 4x inflatable PFDs with integrated harnesses (2018) 1x personal AIS 5x harnesses 10x tethers jacklines Sails & Rigging Zoom radial-cut hydranet mainsail (2019) Rolly Tasker genoa (2024) Incidences Genoa Warp Drive Stormlite (2014) Standing rigging replaced 2019 by David Lambourne Riggers, Brisbane Seagull striker replaced 2020 with 19mm dyform & stalock shackles Custom aluminum crossbeam replaced in Cape Town (2023) due to corrosion on the original.
