Description: Leopard 48
Leopard enthusiastically introduces the all new, agile, Leopard 48. This new catamaran, focused on blue water performance, speed, and luxurious comfortable living spaces, is a welcome addition to the award winning Leopard line. Like her predecessors, this yacht was expertly crafted and designed by the foremost yacht builders Robertson and Caine. Her updated style, open-plan layout, and design all bring a new edge to the line, while remaining consistent with the quality of all Leopard catamarans.
Like the award winning Leopard 44, the Leopard 48 features a large forward cockpit with direct access from the saloon, unique to the Leopard range. Other exterior bonuses include a large and open aft cockpit with cockpit table. A raised helm station, providing excellent panoramic visibility, allows for excellent blue water maneuverability.

Cherry wood laminate finishes and a solid wood trim line the interior of the Leopard 48, providing both beauty and practicality. The spacious interior dining area can seat up to 8 guests comfortably and the dining table can be converted to an optional double berth or coffee table. With the option of a 3 or 4 cabin layout, the large cabins in the Leopard 48 set a new standard in comfort. Each interior design offers both comfort and practicality.
Austrian Walnut laminate flooring and cherry finishes with solid wood articulated trim give a luxurious feeling inside the hulls, and all heads are ensuite with separate stall showers. The starboard hull is entirely dedicated to the owner's suite in the 3 cabin layout. The walk around center line queen sized bed allows for easy side access.

The large master head features a stall shower with bench and a dedicated locker for a washer / dryer.

The continuous hard top provides a stable platform for access to the mast and boom, and can accommodate a large array of solar panels.
The clear and uncluttered deck layout of the Leopard 48 is emphasized by the recessed deck hatches. The sleek Leopard lines are easily recognized by the large teardrop shaped saloon and hull side windows, giving this yacht a very modern look and a source of organic light in the saloon and cabins.
