Description
2021 ROBERTSON AND CAINE LEOPARD 40 3 Cabin - BENDIGO
BUILDERS REMARKS: The Leopard 40, crafted by South African builders Robertson & Caine, showcases a modern design developed by naval architects Simonis and Voogd along with the Robertson & Caine design team. This model maintains the speed, agility, and blue-water performance of its predecessors while featuring increased hull volume and a unique interior layout. The galley is positioned forward, complemented by a forward-facing settee, large windows, and an access door to the forward platform, offering panoramic views. The large sliding glass doors between the saloon and the aft cockpit enhance communication among guests and create a seamless indoor-outdoor living experience.
BROKERS REMARKS: BENDIGO is a rare, young Leopard 40 model leaving the fleet this season. This 3-cabin owner's version has no storm damage due to age. It features a lighter Ash interior, air conditioning, a generator, Yanmar engines, electric davits, and a walk-through forward door.
AVAILABILITY: This yacht will complete its phase-out from the fleet in December 2025 in St Lucia and will be ready to sail away.
