SO1504 is a Leopard 48 for sale, asking EUR 550,000 and lying in Turkey. Built in 2013, she measures 14.75m LOA on a 7.68m beam with 4 large double cabins. She has been a private family boat since delivery and has never been chartered, which on a 13 year old catamaran is the single most important line in the listing.<\/p>\n\n

The Leopard 48 is the model that fixed the compromises of the generation before it. The forward cockpit with its own door off the saloon is the signature feature and the one owners use most, the flybridge carries the helm and a proper lounge, and the bridgedeck clearance is high enough that she does not slam in a short Aegean chop.<\/p>\n\n\n

A Leopard 48 for Sale That Has Never Chartered<\/h2>\n

History is the first thing to check on any Leopard 48 for sale, because most of them worked for a living.<\/p>\n\n

Charter catamarans of this age are everywhere and they are all the same: 4 or 5 cabins, 10 seasons of hard weeks, tired interiors and a maintenance record that starts and stops with whatever the base yard had time for. This boat is the other thing. 1 family, private use, and the kind of running maintenance an owner does because they are the next person to sleep aboard.<\/p>\n\n

Recent work backs that up. The hull, gelcoat and bilges have been renewed, the toilets are new and the upholstery has been replaced. That is the list that usually turns up as a EUR 40,000 to 60,000 job on a boat of this age, and here it is already done.<\/p>\n\n\n

Systems and Equipment<\/h2>\n

Systems are where a private Leopard 48 for sale pulls away from an ex-charter hull.<\/p>\n\n

She is equipped for long periods away from a marina. There is a 180 litre per hour watermaker, a separate drinking water system, 2 water heaters, a dishwasher and a washing machine, and air conditioning in 3 cabins. On a Turkish or Greek summer that specification is the difference between planning a route around shore power and planning it around where you want to be.<\/p>\n\n\n

Layout and Accommodation<\/h2>\n

This Leopard 48 for sale is the 4-cabin layout, which suits family use and resale alike.<\/p>\n\n

Accommodation is 4 large double cabins for 8 guests, with heads in each hull. The saloon sits on the bridgedeck with panoramic glazing and the galley up rather than down, so whoever is cooking is still part of the room. The aft cockpit runs flush into the saloon through a full-width door, and the forward cockpit gives a second, quieter outdoor space that most catamarans of this size do not have.<\/p>\n\n\n

Sailing and Handling<\/h2>\n

Under sail a Leopard 48 for sale is forgiving enough for a couple to run without crew.<\/p>\n\n

She is a cruising catamaran, not a racer, and she is set up to be sailed by a couple. All the lines come back to the flybridge helm, the visibility from up there is complete in both directions, and the sail plan is sized so that reefing is a decision rather than an emergency. In the Aegean meltemi that is the specification that keeps a family cruising instead of sitting in harbour.<\/p>\n\n

Under power she handles on her 2 engines alone, which makes Mediterranean stern-to berthing straightforward without a bow thruster and without a shouting match on the foredeck. For anyone stepping across from a monohull, this is the part that sells the boat on the first sea trial.<\/p>\n\n\n

Where She Sits and Where She Can Go<\/h2>\n

Lying in Turkey puts this Leopard 48 for sale inside the best cruising ground in the eastern Mediterranean.<\/p>\n\n

She is lying in Turkey, which puts her inside the best cruising ground in the eastern Mediterranean before she moves at all. Göcek, Fethiye and the Gulf of Hisarönü are a day away, the Dodecanese are a short hop across, and the Greek islands open up from there. For a buyer who wants to use a boat rather than deliver one, that matters more than it looks on paper.<\/p>\n\n

Aquinox Yachting can arrange survey and sea trial in Turkey, handle the flag and tax position, and coordinate any yard work through UCT Agency before handover. Owners who want the boat to earn part of the year can place her into our Turkish charter programme, where a 4 cabin catamaran of this size books consistently through the season.<\/p>\n\n\n
