2022 Leopard 45

2022 ROBERTSON AND CAINE LEOPARD 45 – Why Knot. Builder's Remarks: We are pleased to announce that the Leopard 45 has been awarded 2017 Boat of the Year by Cruising World Magazine. This marks the 7th Cruising World Boat of the Year win by Leopard. This year’s award was in the newly created Best Charter Catamaran category proving that South African Builders, Robertson and Caine, have perfected the art of not only creating the perfect boat but one that is perfectly suited for the charter industry as well. The judging was done by a team of three independent industry experts, who conducted thorough dockside inspections and then carried out sea trials. The Leopard 45 proved to be the leader of the pack in all areas of the judging. What stood out in particular was her performance and innovation. Additionally, the judges were impressed by the amount of space provided by the forward cockpit, which is connected to the saloon through a translucent door. Another area of interest to the judges was the main saloon, which hosts a forward-facing galley and dinette. The judges also noted that visibility through the saloon windows is exceptional, providing a bright and airy atmosphere. Broker's Remarks: WHY KNOT stands out as one of the newest bareboat Leopard 45s on our books—a fresh 2022 build loaded with desirable factory enhancements. It comes equipped with the hugely popular flybridge lounge area (a game-changer for relaxation and socializing), a reliable watermaker for extended cruising, a powerful inverter setup, and a bright, contemporary interior that's in pristine condition. Priced aggressively at just $499k, this represents outstanding value for a nearly-new 2022 "lounge edition" Leopard 45. If you're hunting for a low-hour, feature-packed Leopard 45 with that sought-after flybridge lounge, look no further.
