Leopard 43

DESCRIPTION

Leopard 43 2007. A beautiful example of this very popular and sought after design.

Holiday has just arrived after a Pacific crossing and is fully equipped and ready for her next blue water adventure. The Leopards of this vintage were the best of the brand, built rugged and safe with good performance and impressive load-carrying with her high volume hulls.

The owners are very experienced cruisers and her amazing and complete fit-out stands out as being a benchmark for others to follow.

Her inventory list is extensive but for us the highlight is the massive 4KW Sunpower Maxeon solar array ensuring long term off grid cruising.

Dig deep into what she has to offer and you realize she is truly ready to go with nothing to wish for.

Holiday is lying in Pittwater and is fully imported with taxes and duty paid.

Inspection highly recommended.
