Overview
About this vessel
Raven is an exceptional example of the sought-after Leopard 45 Owner's Version, lovingly maintained and thoroughly proven by her experienced owners, a retired couple from California who set sail after 34 years in the same careers. Driven by a passion for sailing and a yearning for life filled with salt air, turquoise anchorages, and the serenity of open horizons, they searched for a catamaran that offered both genuine sailing performance and true liveaboard comfort. The Leopard 45 delivered in every way.
From the moment they stepped aboard at the Miami Boat Show, they knew this was the one. Raven strikes an ideal balance of functionality and comfort, with all lines led to the helm for effortless short-handed sailing, and a bright, open interior bathed in natural light. The unique forward door provides outstanding ventilation, a direct connection to the sea, and a second social space in the forward cockpit, quickly becoming their favourite spot for morning coffees and evening sundowners. The spacious owner's suite gave them the privacy and comfort to feel truly at home aboard.
Over the past six years, Raven has carried them from Florida to the Bahamas, up the East Coast to the Chesapeake Bay and Washington DC, through the Caribbean's rich cruising grounds, and onward to Panama and across the Pacific Ocean. Every mile brought new memories, stunning anchorages, cultural encounters, and unforgettable passages.
Now approaching the conclusion of their planned 5 67-year voyage, they feel it's the right time to pass Raven on to new custodians. She's a proven bluewater cruiser- equipped, seasoned, and ready for her next adventure.
Whether you're planning to island-hop, cruise the coast, or cross oceans, Raven offers a rare opportunity to step aboard a trusted, performance-driven catamaran with serious cruising credentials. She's ready to carry you to your next horizon.
