Leopard 45 for sale in Cardinal, Virginia United States of America

Symphony is a 4 Cabin version of the popular Leopard 45. It is currently on the hard in Cardinal, VA, but was a full-time live-aboard cruising vessel from the time of delivery in September 2021 until July 2024.

This model is well regarded for its easy flow and commodious living space; the four cabin layout is ideal for a family. It has several common areas for the crew to relax and find ‘space’ (outside their cabins) including the covered aft and bow cockpits, cabin top seating area, the sunpads alongside the helm and the foredeck. Access from the water is onto wide transom steps, up to the wide, transverse stern platform and wide side decks – emphasis on space and flow, to different areas of the deck.

The owners made several functional modifications to Symphony, to fit in with their life-style as well as their on-board & cruising needs.  These have been carefully thought through and professionally executed by well-regarded boatyards.

Modifications include:

Stainless Steel Arch with 4 x 375W solar panels

Port arch support is plumbed & has fixed fresh water overhead shower

Transom deck wash

Full Helm enclosure (2022)
