Leopard 40 RIPPLE

2020 ROBERTSON AND CAINE LEOPARD 40 4 Cabin - Ripple

BUILDERS REMARKS: The Leopard 40, a product of South African boat builders Robertson & Caine, features a unique, modern design thanks to experienced naval architects Simonis and Voogd as well as Robertson & Caine's design team. She resembles her predecessors in speed, agility, and blue-water performance, but her enhancements include an increased hull volume and an innovative interior layout, which is unlike any Leopard before her. Her galley is located forward and the forward-facing settee and window and an access door to the forward platform of the boat. This allows for a panoramic view with large sliding glass doors between the saloon and the aft cockpit. This arrangement promotes easy communication for guests and an open flow between the saloon and the aft cockpit, creating a fusion of indoor and outdoor living space.

BROKERS REMARKS: Ripple is one of the last available with no hurricane history due to her age. This is a 4 cabin 2 head layout of the popular 40 model and alter version with walk around aft cabins. Has the lighter Ash interior along with air conditioning, generator, Yanmar engines, electric davits and walk through forward door. We have seen lower hours than normal due to slow Covid times. The Leopard 40 is designed for comfort and functionality, featuring essential equipment that enhances the sailing experience. This catamaran combines elegance with practicality, making it an excellent choice for those seeking adventure on the open seas. Experience the joy of sailing with the Leopard 40, aptly named "RIPPLE."

AVAILABILITY: This yacht was released from the fleet 31st July 2025 and has completed the phase out. This yacht is ready for the next adventure! Contact us today.
