The design was built by Lagoon catamaran in France, from 2009 to 2019, but it is now out of production.{{cite web|url= https://sailboatdata.com/builder/lagoon-catamaran|title= Lagoon Catamaran|access-date = 26 March 2023|last= McArthur| first = Bruce |work = sailboatdata.com|year = 2023|archive-url= https://archive.today/20221218201237/https://sailboatdata.com/builder/lagoon-catamaran|archive-date= 18 December 2022|url-status= live}}{{cite web|url= https://sailboat.guide/lagoon|title= Lagoon Catamaran|access-date= 26 March 2023|author= Sea Time Tech, LLC|work= sailboat.guide|year= 2023|archive-url= https://archive.today/20221218201350/https://sailboat.guide/lagoon|archive-date= 18 December 2022|url-status= live}}{{cite web|url = https://www.boat-specs.com/sailing/builders/lagoon|title = Lagoon Sailboat builder|access-date = 26 March 2023|work = Boat-Specs.com|year= 2023|archive-url= https://archive.today/20230119203247/https://www.boat-specs.com/sailing/builders/lagoon|archive-date= 19 January 2023|url-status= live}}

The Lagoon 620 is a recreational catamaran, built predominantly of vacuum infused polyester fiberglass sandwich, with wood trim. It has a fractional sloop rig, with a deck-stepped mast, two sets of swept spreaders and aluminum spars with 1X19 stainless steel wire rigging. The hulls have slightly raked stems, reverse transoms with swimming platforms, dual internally mounted spade-type rudders controlled by dual wheels located on the flying bridge, and twin fixed fin keels. It displaces {{convert|71076|lb|kg|0|abbr=on}}.
The boat has a draft of {{convert|5.09|ft|m|abbr=on}} with the standard twin keels.
The boat is fitted with twin {{convert|110|hp|kW|0|abbr=on}} diesel engines for docking and maneuvering. The fuel tank holds {{convert|343|u.s.gal}} and the fresh water tank has a capacity of {{convert|253|u.s.gal}}.
The design has sleeping accommodation for eight to 14 people, with a number of different four- to six-cabin interior layouts in the port and starboard hulls. In all layouts each cabin has a private head with a shower. The main salon has an L-shaped settee and a forward-facing navigation station. The galley is of straight configuration and is equipped with a four-burner stove, a refrigerator, freezer and a double sink. Cabin maximum headroom is {{convert|81|in|cm|0|abbr=on}}. There is also an aft cockpit lounge and seating on the flying bridge.
For sailing downwind the design may be equipped with a symmetrical spinnaker of {{convert|3229|sqft|m2|abbr=on}}, an asymmetrical gennaker of {{convert|2045|sqft|m2|abbr=on}} or a code 0 sail of {{convert|1991|sqft|m2|abbr=on}}.
The design has a hull speed of {{convert|10.35|kn|km/h|abbr=on}}.
Operational history
In a 2015 review for boats.com, Zuzana Prochazka wrote, "at over 70,000 pounds this is not a light cat, despite the infusion molded construction. And the hulls are broad all the way forward, so pointing to weather will be challenging. But off the wind with a gennaker, this boat should produce 10 to 12 knots of speed in 25 knots of wind."
