These catamarans set the standard for comfort, ease of sailing and performance when they were introduced. The layout allows easy movement about the boat from the spacious aft deck, a step down to the swimming platform, or relaxing on the foredeck trampoline. The innovative deck layout brings a host of features to make life and sailing simplicity itself. From the aft deck arch that puts the mainsail sheeting system out of harm's way, to the ingenious anchoring system, sailing the Leopard 4500 is a breeze.
The Leopard 4500 has robust shaft drives and skeg protected rudders making it well suited to cruising in remote areas. ‘Triton’ benefits from new refrigeration, a watermaker, lithium batteries and an extensive solar array.
Assumable moorage at the desirable Port Sidney Marina
