The Leopard 44 has long been considered one of the standout cruising catamarans of its era, combining the proven design pedigree of Robertson & Caine with the performance-oriented hull shapes drawn by Simonis Voogd. Built for short-handed bluewater sailing without sacrificing comfort, the Leopard 44 offers a genuinely spacious interior, a protective hardtop, and easy sail handling from a centrally located helm. It remains a sought-after model on the brokerage market, with owners consistently praising its balance of seaworthiness, livability, and ease of maintenance.

This 2015 model (though built in 2014) presents a solid opportunity for buyers seeking a well-equipped, mid-size cruising catamaran ready for coastal and offshore passages. The vessel sustained hurricane damage in 2021 and underwent major repairs at that time; she has since been in charter service, giving her a documented and actively maintained operating history. With twin Yanmar diesels, dual air conditioning, an upgraded AGM battery bank, and solar charging already in place, she offers a strong foundation for extended cruising or continued charter use.

This boat is open to co-brokerage. This seller has chosen to compensate a buyer's broker at 4% of the contract price.

This 2015 Leopard 44 offers a capable, well-proven cruising platform with a documented post-hurricane repair history and years of active charter use to follow. Several meaningful upgrades are already in place, including a renewed AGM battery bank and solar charging, and the seller should be able to provide repair records and survey documentation related to the 2021 hurricane work. A number of additional specifications and equipment details remain to be confirmed before the listing is finalized, but the engine hours, propeller configuration, and electrical upgrades already on hand point to a vessel that has been actively maintained throughout its charter career.
