Splurge and go for the Lagoon 450. We have had it with 8 people, 6 people and 5 last year. Each cabin has great storage and their own bathroom AND thermostat for AC. But the most favorite part for all our guests is the helm having room for 8 with a cushion Bimini. It's so nice to all be together while sailing. We also utilized the big happy hour pit in front. Check out the video for L-450. You will love it.
