Folie à Deux

Catamaran
Lagoon 40

Folie à Deux is an impressive Lagoon 40 catamaran featuring panoramic views from the salon and large windows in the cabins, adding comfort and luxury to your San Francisco Bay charter experience. With a spacious galley and salon, three cabins, generous storage, and excellent headroom throughout, the accommodation is the roomiest of all catamarans in her class. She also boasts a large, open, and dry cockpit with 360 degree views, ideal for comfortable entertaining on the water. 

This Lagoon 40's running rigging is configured efficiently, making this boat a pleasure to sail. The self-tacking jib makes her an easy boat to sail with short-handed crews. She is surprisingly good upwind and fun to sail off the wind too. On deck, there are plenty of handrails to grab onto and most of the hatches are recessed. Her comfort rating for day sails is 12 people and she sleeps up to 8. 

Fun fact: folie à deux is a French expression that means "folly of two" or "madness shared by two."

    I try to get out on the water every week: out the Gate, around Angel, up Raccoon - I love it all. After 18 years as a member of OCSC in Berkeley, I learned to sail the bigger boats at Modern by taking ASA 103 and 104. My ASA 104 instructor Dave Russell was terrific. Also, Captain Bill Moreland has been very generous in giving informal advice whenever I’ve asked him. Thanks to Bill, I no longer have any anxiety about docking!

    I would like to compliment Stan Lander for his coaching, counseling and teaching Heavy Weather Offshore Sailing. Stan was very accommodating to all of the student's interests and shared his many years of insight on handling the boat in heavy seas. I would certainly recommend Stan and this course to sheltered waters sailors. My confidence in handling a boat of this size was certainly enhanced by the experience.

    We just took our ASA 106 at a school in Rhode Island as we prepare for 6 months of cruising in the Caribbean. The class was great, but more than anything it made us really appreciate the quality of teaching and rigor at Modern Sailing. Even though we were the newest to sailing, the group seemed to think that we had the best fundamentals. We felt very well prepared and we see why Modern Sailing has the reputation it does.

    The Full Moon Sail with Skipper Bob Gutsgell was Ah-Mayzing!! The group dynamic was lovely and the views spectacular. I can't say enough good things about the experience. Thanks so much for the wonderful Club Sails, they are really great.
