About the Leopard 51 Powercat

At 15.4 m the Leopard 51 Powercat is a large power catamaran, built for extended cruising and often run with crew. Its two hulls provide stability, generous volume and long range at displacement speeds. Her beam of 7.5 m is typical for a cruising catamaran of this length. A draft of only 1 m lets her reach shallow anchorages that keelboats cannot use.

Leopard catamarans are built by Robertson and Caine in Cape Town, South Africa, and most are designed by Simonis Voogd. Many Leopards have sailed in large charter fleets, so ex-charter versions are common on the used market.

Buying a used Leopard 51 Powercat

• Check whether any builder’s warranty can be transferred to you.
• Compare equipment lists – solar, watermaker, generator and electronics make a big difference in price.
• Ask for the hours and service records of both engines and check the running gear.
• Many Leopard boats come out of charter fleets. Ask for the full maintenance log and read our guide Ex-charter or owner’s version?.
• Always commission an independent survey with a haul-out – see our buying checklist.
