2013 ROBERTSON AND CAINE LEOPARD 48 – Vie En Rose

BUILDERS REMARKS: The award-winning Leopard 48 offers blue water performance and comfortable living spaces; this catamaran is a popular member of the Leopard line.

The Leopard 48 features a large forward cockpit with direct access from the saloon and a stairway to the forward platform. 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.

The galley of the Leopard 48 comes equipped with top-of-the-line appliances and ample prepping space. The expertly-designed interior makes sailing not only fun, but also incredibly comfortable. Her modern lines and open floor plan set a new standard for the modern cruising catamaran.

BROKERS REMARKS: VIE EN ROSE was unaffected by the hurricanes of 2017 as located in St Lucia at the time. There will be fewer 48's available this season due to damages and a few less in general over the next years as a result. This boat has the cherry in interior and all the other great features of the 48. Forward seating area, electric davits, Yanmar engines, Northern Lights generator, and air conditioning.

AVAILABILITY: Released from the fleet and awaiting phase out.
