2003 ROBERTSON AND CAINE LEOPARD 38
BUILDERS REMARKS: The Leopard 38 is a timeless classic. More than 70 of this model were build from '98 - '03 and "TIKI" is one of the last ones. The 2003 model year distinguishes itself from previous years as they have the Volvo Penta engines (instead of Westerbeke). The 38' is easily handled by a couple, yet has enough space for 6 overnight.
2003 ROBERTSON AND CAINE LEOPARD 38
BUILDERS REMARKS: The Leopard 38 is a timeless classic. More than 70 of this model were build from '98 - '03 and "TIKI" is one of the last ones. The 2003 model year distinguishes itself from previous years as they have the Volvo Penta engines (instead of Westerbeke). The 38' is easily handled by a couple, yet has enough space for 6 overnight.This is the three double cabin version with a master suite occupying the starboard hull and two more cabins in the port hull. There is a huge stall shower on the starboard side. The galley is up in the saloon. The deck layout is clear and the mainsheet traveller runs on an arch over the transom giving easy access to the water via a wide aft bathing platform. The transom arch also serves to support the aft end of the bimini and to carry the dinghy. Deep louver steps shade the forward sloping saloon windows while providing an easy and secure walkway to the saloon roof. The Leopard 38 is a competent performer under sail and power.
BROKERS REMARKS: "TIKI" is a 3 cabin "owner's" model. The starboard hull is dedicated to the owner's suite with large separate shower aft. Roomy living space, plenty of storage and large saloon and cockpit make her an ideal cruising catamaran. This yacht is immaculately maintained by her private owners who have been cruising the Caribbean. The yacht is fully kitted out with all the cruising aids you'll need, and as the photos show is easily the best looking and best priced Leopard 38 on the market. (more pictures following soon)
