OWNER'S MANUAL

Dear Sir / Madam,
You have just taken delivery of your new
LAGOON and, rst of all, we thank you for the trust
you have shown in buying a boat of our brand.
A LAGOON is made to last. From its design
to its construction and eventually to its launching,
every boat, includingthesmallest details, is considered
with the very care it deserves in order to ensure
you the years of joy you expect.
This manual is intended to help you enjoy your
boat in safety. It includes many details about the boat
specications, the provided or installed equipment
and also information on how to use it. Read it carefully
and familiarize yourself with the boat before sailing.
This Owner's manual is not a course on safety
at sea or good sailing sense. If this is your rst boat,
or if you are changing to a new type of boat with
which you are not familiar with, both for your comfort
and your safety, we would advise you to obtain some
training before taking the helm of your new boat.
Your retailer, your national sailing or motor vessel
federation or your yacht club would be delighted to
inform you about the local sailing schools or skilled
instructors in the area.
Make sure that the forecast wind and sea
conditions match with the build category of your boat,
and that you and your crew are capable of sailing safely
your vessel in such conditions. Even when your boat is
suited, the sea and wind conditions corresponding to
the build categories A, B and C may vary from heavy
storm for the A category to severe conditions for the
C category. These situations, during which may occur
exceptional waves and gusts, are therefore dangerous
and only an experienced crew, well trained and
prepared is able to sail a vessel, provided it is properly
maintained.
This Owner's manual is not a course in
maintenance and repair. In case of diculty, do not
hesitate to ask your builder or representative. If a
maintenance manual is provided, do not hesitate to
use it. Always ask an experienced professional for the
maintenanceor your boat, for the installation offurther
accessories or for any modication. Any modication
which may alter the safety specications of the boat
have to be estimated, carried out and documented
by qualied people. The builder can not be liable for
modication that would not have been approved.
Please note that, in some countries, a sailing
license or authorization is required or specic
regulation has to be observed.
Always keep your boat correctly maintained
and take into account the damages due to time or,
if applicable, due to an intensive or inappropriate
usage of the boat. Any boat, as solid as it can be,
may be severely damaged if not sailed properly.
This is not compatible with a safe sailing experience.
Always adapt the speed and the direction of the boat
to the sea conditions.
If your boat is tted with a life raft, read
carefully its user's guide. It is necessary that the
crew can nd on board all the safety equipment
(life jacket, harness, etc.) corresponding to the vessel,
to the weather conditions, etc. This equipment
has been made mandatory by some countries. It is
necessary for the crew to be familiarized with the use
of all the safety equipment and with the emergency
safety procedures (MOB, towing, etc.). Sailing schools
and yacht clubs often oer training sessions.
It is recommended that everybody wears
appropriate safety equipment (life jacket, individual
buoyancy aids) when they are on the deck. Please note
that, in some countries, always wearing a buoyancy
aid in conformity with the local standards has been
made compulsory.

The users of this boat are informed that:
All the crew members have to be properly trained.
Do not sail at maximum speed in areas of dense trac
or in case of reduced visibility, strong winds or high
waves. Reduce the speed and the wake of the boat, by
respect to others but also as a measure of safety, both
for them and for yourself. Respect the speed and wake
limits when zones are dened.
Respect the priority rules set by the navigation
regulations and laid down by the COLREG.
Make sure that you always have a sucient distance to
stop or steer the boat in order to avoid a collision.
The dierent warning used throughout this guide are
as follow :
xDANGER
Warns you about the existence of an extreme
hazard that is very likely to induce serious or fatal
consequences if the appropriate precautions are not
taken.
WARNING
Warns you about the existence of a hazard that may
have serious or fatal consequences if the appropriate
precautions are not taken.
!ATTENTION
Warns you about safety practices or draw your
attention to dangerous practices that may hurt people
or caused damages to the boat, its components or to
the environment.
KEEP THIS MANUAL IN A SAFE PLACE AND
PASS IT TO THE NEW OWNER SHOULD YOU
SELL THE VESSEL.

REMINDER OF THE CATEGORIES
Category A: the boat is designed for sailing in winds that may
exceed force 8 on the Beaufort Scale and in waves of a signicant
height of 4 m or more and the boat is to a large extent self -
sucient. Unusual conditions such as hurricanes are excluded.
You may meet with such conditions when sailing long crossings,
for instance across the oceans, or close to the shore when you are
not protected from the winds and waves over several hundreds
of nautical miles.
Category B: the boat is designed for sailing in winds that may
not exceed force 4 on the Beaufort Scale and in corresponding
waves (waves of a signicant height of 4 m or less (see Note 1
below). You may meet with such conditions when sailing at open
sea during quite a sucient time, or close to the shore when you
are not protected from the winds and waves over several dozens
of nautical miles. You may also meet with such conditions when
sailing quite important inland seas which could produce waves
of this height.
Category C: the boat is designed for sailing in winds that may not
exceed force 6 on the Beaufort Scale and in corresponding waves
(waves of a signicant height of 2 m or less (see Note 1 below).
You may meet such conditions when sailing exposed inland
waters, estuaries and inshore waters with moderate weather
conditions.
Category D: the boat is designed for sailing in winds that may
not exceed force 8 on the Beaufort Scale and in corresponding
waves (occasional waves of 0.5 m maximum (see Note 1 below).
You may meet such conditions when sailing non exposed inland
waters and inshore waters under good weather conditions.
NOTE 1 - The signicant height of a wave is the average height of
the upper third of the waves, which corresponds more or less to
the height an experienced observer can assess. Some waves will
be twice as high as this value.
The sails are the principal means of propulsion of the
Lagoon 560.
The Lagoon 560 is in conformity with the Directive
2003 44 CE .
