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."

    Here are some snaps of Our Saturday, August 20, 2022 Modern Sailing Expedition with Captain Robert Bivin, who was outstanding. Please convey photos and thanks to him. He is an outstanding individual, leader and sailing instructor. His knowledge and experience made us all feel safe and our Farallones Day Trip educational and just amazing.

    Every aspect of Modern Sailing - training, syllabus, course materials, quality of the boats, quality of the instructors, and the very friendly and helpful staff - exceeded my expectations. Modern Sailing has a first class sailing program in an environment with challenging winds and currents. I look forward to coming back to charter a boat and certainly plan to continue my sailing training.

    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.

    I took ASA 101 with them recently. They have the best customer service I've ever seen! I mistyped my address when I signed up online so didn't receive the textbook. I called and the lady immediately sent me another copy! Everyone at the club is super friendly.

    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.
