We are Helen and
Steve Southwood. In October 2008 we moved
aboard Dignity, our Lagoon 420 and began our travels.
For a long time our dream has been to travel the world. A couple of years into the new millennium we decided to do our travelling by sailboat. In 2005 we bought Dignity. Dignity is hull #20 off the Lagoon 420 (Hybrid) assembly line. She was launched on April 23rd, 2007 and was in service in the CatamaranCo charter fleet for her first year before we moved aboard.
