Island Hopp'r — 2017 Lagoon 42 Owner's Version | Duty Paid

Some boats are maintained. Island Hopp'r has been cared for — the difference is unmistakable the moment you step aboard.

Offered by only her second owner and never chartered, this 2017 Lagoon 42 Owner's Version represents a rare opportunity to acquire a genuinely turn-key cruising catamaran. Every decision made during her ownership has been guided by one goal: the ability to cruise confidently, comfortably, and independently — anywhere.

Built for theCruising Life

Island Hopp'r carries the sought-after three-cabin, three-head layout and has been thoughtfully upgraded far beyond her factory specification. Twin Yanmar 57hp engines deliver reliable power under motor, while a square-top mainsail and self-tacking jib make her equally rewarding under sail. The code zero with all running gear provides light wind sailing as an option. 

True off-grid capability sets her apart. A 13.5kW Onan generator, newly upgraded AGM battery bank, and onboard solar work in concert to keep systems running quietly and sustainably, free from the constraints of marinas and shore power. Fresh water is never a concern thanks to the Cruise RO 30GPH watermaker — fill your tanks wherever the anchor drops.

Life Aboard, Elevated

Inside, Island Hopp'r is as comfortable as she is capable. Four Dometic air-conditioning zones maintain a perfect climate in any anchorage, while the expansive U-shaped galley — fitted with broad work surfaces, generous storage, full refrigeration, freezer, oven, microwave, and stovetop — makes provisioning and cooking a genuine pleasure rather than an afterthought.

Oversized windows flood the saloon and cabins with natural light, framing whatever view lies beyond. The single-level cockpit flows seamlessly from the aft swim platform to the saloon, creating an effortless indoor-outdoor living space. The coachroof helm station keeps the skipper connected to both the cockpit conversation and the sails above — a layout that rewards passage-making and lazy afternoons at anchor in equal measure.
