PRICE REDUCTION: Sweet Escape is a comprehensively equipped, serious and proven blue water cruising catamaran. OWNERS VERSION, NEVER CHARTERED, 2ND OWNER. This is a rare opportunity to own one of the best cats available, a 40' 3-cabin Leopard catamaran, with everything you need to go on an extended cruise!
Currently cruising with the second owners. The original owners returned to Florida in 2022 after completing a 15-year around-the-world voyage. This vessel is well-built, and a super safe Catamaran. She is easy to sail and comes equipped with everything you will need to go cruising now! NOTE:** While heading home to Florida, she stopped in Cape Town, S. Africa, and had a complete refit in 2020 at the factory. These older Leopards were built stronger than the new ones! You will not find a better-equipped 40' cat under $350,000! These boats are light and fast. The lighter weight allows her to ride easily over waves and her sharp bows and clean underwater profile cut cleanly as well as minimize drag. Visibility is excellent over the coach roof and a sliding hatch cover in the hard cockpit Bimini over the helm makes it easy to keep track of sail shape. The cockpit and salon include inside and outside cushions. Interior cushions have removable/washable covers.
The Galley is practical with large cabinets for storage and a flip-down countertop which facilitates the passage of food and drinks to the table in the cockpit. Dining accommodates eight people sitting comfortably, leaving free access to the cockpit. The cockpit transitions to the aft steps which aid with easy entry in/out of the water from swim ladder on the port side. The galley-up design incorporates a spacious saloon and aft-facing galley with a cocktail bar and serving window overlooking the cockpit. Accommodations include 3 double cabins, and two large heads with separate shower stalls.
The 3-cabin layout features an owner-dedicated starboard hull with master stateroom, office area and large head with separate walk-in shower forward, including a custom queen mattress (folding), an office area with long bookshelves, with the water maker in the forepeak. Cherry paneled finishes with solid trims are throughout. The entire Owner’s ˜wing” can be discreetly closed away, creating complete privacy and the luxurious feeling of being able to roam undisturbed while guests or children enjoy the rest of the boat. Guests will enjoy the large cockpit with an outside dining area, protected by a functional hard-top Bimini, fitted as standard, as well as a custom enclosure.
Guest accommodations (Port Hull) include 1 queen cabin with a custom mattress in the stern and a double cabin forward. In the port forepeak, there is a 1.9 cubic ft. chest freezer hard-wired into the electrical system. There is a head with a separate shower located mid-ship.
