Adoro os vídeos de vocês, está viagem é um sonho, lugares maravilhosos e ótima reportagem vocês fazem. I love the videos of you, this trip is a dream, wonderful places and great report you make.
Thanks Laurent, Atalantia has the right to an opinion too. For the past ten years we have just been making videos for fun, and it has been a great way to show our close friends and family what we were doing when were away from home again. Since we started sailing the number of subscriptions has suddenly started to grow, but we are still into it for the fun. As we got more international viewers we have added English subtitles on request, but we are using our native language to each other, we're not trying to read Wikipedia to you, and we try to point the camera at things we see instead of constantly in our own faces. Of course people like you and the positive comments you make are good for our ego :-)
Many thanks again for all this nice videos! After six months aboard the Lagoon 52, please tell us what is positive/negative with this catamaran and her equipment. Is it something to change in your initial choice? Thanks for your advice. Have a nice sailing in Cyclades! Phil
+DROUILLON Philippe we're still really happy with our choice for the 52S, still haven't seen a real alternative for our demands, preferences and taste. We would probably chose another water maker, as the 12v sea recovery breaks down all the time. Service is ok but costs time and worries every time. We also would chose a better uv protection for our code 0 as the current method doesn't seem to last. Finally would want an additional alarm on the BandG as the standard one doesn't wake you, but that's an option we could add anyway. Can't think of something else
+DROUILLON Philippe additionally I still have to get used to the delay in the electronic throttle between forward and reverse. In tight situations I preferred the cables of the 39 (and they might have prevented me to damage the gel coat a bit in the harbour on the south of santorini earlier today 😎
Thanks for reply!! Usefull informations; cables for command of engines is without delay, of course, but electronic commands are so soft... What is your idea about the platform for dinghy? And for the dinghy, better an inflatable or an polyethylene?
+DROUILLON Philippe the platform is fantastic, the highfield 390 is fine as long as you realise yourself that you can't bring it on the beach unless you have enough friends to get it of again. The rib version we have seems better than fully rigid or fully inflatable but did not really think about this before
I always look forward to your videos so relaxing and nice views.

Stunning drone filming of your beautiful Cat under sail. Love it. Thanks Best regards from OZ
Compared with Atalantia Drago below, I love your "amateur" videos :) They are AWESOME... Many thanks for sharing and as usual, best from HKG

Still one more question: is it possible by Lagoon to get a electric furler on the boom for the main sail?
