Smart circumnavigation: Lagoon 440 Catamaran Impi

by Cyclops Marine 26 Mar 12:30 UTC

Meet Brent and Ana. Last year, they won our Magic Number video competition. Since then they've completed their first circumnavigation onboard their Lagoon 440 Catamaran 'Impi'. Now they're getting ready for their second!

We caught up with them and found out just how much their Cyclops rig safety monitoring system has affected their journey (and even their marriage!).

Meet us at the International Multihull Show, La Grand-Motte, 3-7 April, on Booth H25 to learn more.
