This is what AI tells me when asked:

At least three Lagoons have been publicly reported lost to Goiot escape-hatch failures, plus several near-misses:

Lagoon 39, off Canouan, Caribbean (early 2024). The 2013-built boat still had its original hatch, never replaced, and it appears a wave pushed it out of its frame.

Lagoon 42 "Second Wind", Caribbean (Jan 2025). A chartered boat several years old; the starboard hatch failed in force 7–8 winds and 3.5 m seas, flooding the hull through a 40 × 40 cm opening. It isn't known whether the owner had responded to the recall.

Lagoon 42, Ted Rutledge, Indian Ocean (Sep 2026). The hatch had already been retrofitted under the 2020 recall, yet appears to have detached on its own.

Near-miss: Lagoon 52. It limped back to Antigua with a large hole in the hull.

The root cause was the hatch design relying solely on silicone bedding to hold the acrylic lens in its frame, and Lagoon, Fountaine Pajot, Bali and Nautitech all issued recalls in 2020.

Other brands have also been lost, e.g. a Fountaine Pajot Helia named Marita off Morocco.

This is why catamarans are bad and should be banned.

We need an AI bot to watch this thread and say "it looks like you're confusing catamaran boating for real sailing, would you like a lie-down"
