Lagoon 380 Sales and Service St Augustine Catamaran Center


Catamaran Service and Sales. Just about any catamaran though, we can haul up to a 40' beam! One of the great opportunities for The St Augustine Catamaran Center is it's location in St Augustine Marine just off the Inter Coastal along the San Sabatian River.

Tim Benner of "I Dream of Jeanne", a Lagoon 380, and a very active member of the Lagoon Owners Forum, recently pulled for maintenance here at the yard. Tim, is always got some project going on. I had the opportunity to inspect the Hardtop that he built himself and did a great job! I have enjoyed Tim's willingness to pass on to other Lagoon owners his challenges in maintaining his Catamaran and I am sure that those who have had the opportunity to learn from his challenges appreciate his input just as much or more!
Tim has been great, in assisting with what we are doing here at St Augustine Catamaran Center. Recently we had a day event "tagged" Bahama Bound provided by SouthEast Sailing and Yachts, our direct Service provider and Tim was gracious enough to bring his Lagoon 380 to our docks and further monitored a seminar "Sailing the Bahamas from a Catamaran Prospective". Great event. Well attended, good speakers that covered a multiple number of topics from communications to clearing customs, navigation and as well as places to go. Anway, a big thanks to Tim for his catamaran input.

We are excited about the growth of St Augustine Catamaran Center and our very pleased to provide high quality service via SouthEast Sailing and St Augustine Marine. If you are looking for storage, bottom jobs and or complete repairs and re-fits please feel free to give me a call John Anderson, 954-821-6450. Email? You can reach me just about anytime john.anderson@catamarans.com
