Lagoon, Fontaine, help.

I am thinking about buying a Fontaine or a lagoon 44ft plus, around the 2006-2009 mark. I am looking for any owners in the south east Queensland area that might be willing to let us take a look at there vessel as my wife and I have only seen pictures. We live on Bribie island so ideal areas would be Mooloolaba, Scarborough, manly, Gold Coast etc.
We want to buy in Europe hence why we really would like to view one here.
Thanks in advance to anyone that may be able to help.

Regards.

Re: Lagoon, Fontaine, help.

Gday John,
you are not far from Multihull Land, just down the road on the Gold Coast. If you want to see boats in the flesh so to speak there are a number of boat brokers based at and business called "BoatWorks". Trust me its boaters heaven. There are normally a lot of multis on the hard with the majority for sale through on site brokers. Just one out of the hat check Multihull Solutions. They normally have a wide range of multis including Lagoons and FPs on display. They often have open days for potential buyers to get on board the boats and have a look around. If you want to talk about Lagoon, FPs or other multis you can normally find a facebook owns site for each brand.

Re: Lagoon, Fontaine, help.

John... Just a quick suggestion. Don't put your phone number and your name on an open forum. That's more than enough for a scammer to get started. If your username is not your real name that's slightly less of a problem.

Re: Lagoon, Fontaine, help.

You are welcome Dave. A quick message to the moderators should get your earlier post edited.

It won't get you aboard aboard but you could look at my old acquaintance Cat Impi's youtube ( https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCIy...Uhlfkd34f8FrEg ) and facebook info to see a lot about sailing a Lagoon 440
