With over 1500 vessels catamarans built Leopard has established itself a leader.
Catamaran leopard. This catamaran owner requires financial settlement only. The Leopard 43 is a comfortable and reasonably fast passage maker able to be sailed short-handed. The hulls are of GRP construction with balsa core for strength stiffness and insulation using high quality materials.
In this post I would like to explain why I choose a Leopard 40 catamaran instead of a Lagoon 380 which actually was my first choice for Charters Elevens catamaran charter. 2015 Leopard 51PC WILDCAT II. The vision of Leopard 42 was not a simple replacement for the highly successful Leopard 40.
Awarded Boat of the Year honors in 2017 and founded upon the ethos of continuous innovation and feedback from cruising clients the Leopard 45 sailing catamaran represents astute value elegant lines and satisfies blue water passion. The Leopard 44 results from another successful collaboration with American catamaran designers Morrelli Melvin. A Good looking cat good sailing features very handy not too big not too small perfect for charteringI loved it.
I spent a couple of seasons in Ibiza been the proud captain of a Lagoon 380. At the time their catamarans were designed and built primarily for charter companies Sunsail and The Moorings. The recently redesigned Leopard 40 sports an increased interior volume and modern interior layout.
These catamarans were built in two configurations one for owners and one for the charter market. A unique saloon to bow access door gives easy access for sunbathing and chilling out on the deck. Leopard 38 also branded as the Sunsail 384 was designed by Morrelli Melvin who have designed some of the fastest multihulls to glide across an ocean.
All total they built 124 hulls. The goal was a solid affordable mid-sized catamaran capable of blue water sailing and good for the charter market. Based on the award-winning Leopard 42 the Leopard 43 is designed by Simonis and Voegd and built by Robertson and Caine a large South African builder.
