Executive Summary and Seller's Perspective

"Lucero" represents a rare opportunity to acquire a privately owned, US-duty-paid Lagoon 50 catamaran that has been comprehensively optimized for immediate, long-term global cruising.

Unlike standard production or ex-charter catamarans on the market, Lucero was purchased for a private family mission. Because my wife and I were taking our three young sons into deep water, our family’s safety, system redundancy, and absolute comfort at sea were completely paramount. We spared no expense and cut zero corners, executing a rigorous $200,000+ comprehensive refit and preventative maintenance cycle over 2025 and 2026.

Due to our children ultimately not acclimating to the liveaboard lifestyle as we had hoped, we made the difficult decision to conclude our journey early in George Town, Exuma, and return home. Lucero is now back in Maryland, fully imported, sitting in turn-key condition, and primed to take her next owners anywhere in the world tomorrow.

When you buy a factory-new or ex-charter catamaran, you typically spend the first 6 to 12 months in a boatyard correcting factory defects, chasing down gremlins, and waiting on parts. Lucero has already been through that grueling process. The bugs have been ironed out, the major preventative milestones are complete, and she is lying in Edgewater, MD, fully commissioned and ready to cast off today.

Interior Layout and Cruising Accommodations

Designed with extended family cruising in mind, the interior layout strikes a perfect balance between private living spaces and massive social zones.

The Accommodations: The vessel features 5 spacious queen cabins, each boasting excellent headroom, abundant natural light, and dedicated storage. There are 4 fully functional, private ensuite heads.

Bonus Cabins: An incredibly versatile midship cabin serves perfectly as a massive pantry, workshop, or additional storage area for long-range provisioning. Forward, a dedicated crew berth with its own independent head offers privacy for a captain/chef or a perfect space for kids.

Climate and Comfort: The multi-zone marine air conditioning system delivers ice-cold climate control throughout the entire interior, making tropical or Caribbean heat a non-issue.

The Main Salon and Galley: The open-concept salon offers 360-degree visibility, seamless integration with the aft cockpit, and a fully equipped galley capable of feeding a large crew for weeks at sea.
