Description
Well-Maintained Leopard 45 (1998) | Keen Seller | Priced to Move – Offers are welcome
A proven, go-anywhere cruising catamaran with the right “big ticket” upgrades already done. This Leopard 45 is currently on dry dock, making inspection and planning works straightforward. She has been continuously improved for long-range independence: strong twin Yanmar power, serious charging capacity (solar + dual wind turbines + large AGM bank), a reliable Northern Lights generator, and a Spectra watermaker. A great opportunity for a buyer who wants a capable platform at a low entry price, with a clear, manageable punch-list to make her perfect.
Onboard you’ll find a practical cruising layout with four heads, upgraded plumbing, a well-equipped galley, and excellent cold storage including a large deep freezer/cold plate system designed for efficient generator/engine running. Comfort is enhanced with two air-conditioning units and a spacious cockpit finished in Flexiteak.
