Overview
About this vessel
This 2014 Leopard 39 is a well-regarded model in the cruising multihull market, balancing performance, comfort, and practical liveability. Built by Robertson and Caine, the vessel features a robust fiberglass hull with a design that prioritises stability and volume, translating directly to comfort at sea and generous interior space. While not performance-oriented, its lines are efficient enough to deliver respectable sailing speeds, particularly off the wind.
The propulsion package features twin Yanmar 3YM30 diesel engines, providing a combined 58 hp. These workhorse engines are renowned for their reliability and ease of maintenance. While 29 hp per hull might seem modest, it is appropriate for a catamaran of this size, offering sufficient power for maneuvering in tight quarters and providing reliable auxiliary propulsion. Expect economical fuel consumption, a significant advantage for extended cruising.
Stepping aboard, you will immediately appreciate the thoughtful interior layout. The salon is bright and airy, benefiting from large windows that offer panoramic views. The galley is well-equipped for extended stays, and the two-cabin, two-head configuration provides comfortable accommodations for owners and guests, ensuring privacy and convenience. The open cockpit is a focal point for social activity, offering ample space for dining, lounging, and managing sails.
Key features include an elevated helm station, providing excellent visibility, and an integrated hardtop bimini offering crucial protection from the elements. The vessel is described as beautifully kept with all maintenance to date. As with any used vessel, a comprehensive survey is recommended to assess the true condition of its systems, sails, rigging, and hull.
For a buyer seeking a proven cruising catamaran that offers a blend of comfort, stability, and manageable size for coastal cruising or offshore passages, this Leopard 39 is a practical choice for those prioritising liveability and ease of handling.
