Episode 2: Fort Lauderdale Boat Show & Key West

We kick things off with a magical evening at Lagoon’s private dock party in Cannes, featuring the stunning Lagoon Eighty 2, candlelight, and a live string quartet. Along the way, we meet NBA champion Boris Diaw and get a firsthand look at life aboard his Lagoon Seventy 7.

Back in the States, the search for the perfect catamaran heats up at the Fort Lauderdale International Boat Show—where a rare Seventy 7 might just be “the one.” But before making a life-changing decision, we take a break in Key West, exploring Dry Tortugas by seaplane and diving into history with a one-of-a-kind Atocha treasure.

The dream is getting closer… it’s time to make a move.

What happens in this episode

After years of searching for the right catamaran, Eric and Megan return from the Cannes Yachting Festival more determined than ever to find their future Odyssey. Conversations with experienced Lagoon 77 owner Boris Diaw reinforce their interest in larger-format Lagoons and help clarify what they need from their own boat.

Back in the U.S., they narrow their options based on layout, age, budget, and how they plan to use the yacht. At the Fort Lauderdale International Boat Show, a late-model Lagoon 77 catches their attention with its generous interior volume, spacious crew accommodations, owner’s suite, and four guest cabins. It comes remarkably close to the boat they would design themselves.

A getaway to Key West gives them time to reflect on what would be the largest purchase of their lives. By the end of the trip, years of dreaming and searching have turned into a clear decision: they know what they want, and they’re finally ready to make a move toward making Odyssey a reality.
