Overview

Sporty and elegant, built for offshore cruising

Built upon Leopard's award-winning heritage, the Leopard 43 introduces an efficient wave-piercing reverse bow, wide optimised stepped hulls and an abundantly high bridge deck, delivering smooth, efficient sailing in all sea states. The upgraded 125.8 sqm sail plan with overlapping genoa and a larger, repositioned rig provides superior performance in all wind conditions.

Strengthened wrap-around glass gives the saloon an industry-first 360-degree view of the horizon, while fully retractable companionway doors merge saloon and aft cockpit into one generous indoor-outdoor entertaining space. Twin 45 hp diesels, a 660-litre water tank and a 600-litre fuel tank keep long passages well provisioned.

Highlights

Why choose the Leopard 43

Offshore sailing DNA

A wave-piercing reverse bow, wide stepped hulls and high bridge deck, with all lines easily accessible at the helm and superb visibility — designed for offshore single-handed sailing.

Indoor-outdoor entertaining

Fully retractable companionway doors unite saloon and aft cockpit into one large entertainment space, and a watertight forward door opens onto an enlarged foredeck and forward cockpit.

Full owner's hull suite

The starboard owner's suite features a large island berth, desk with vanity and a spacious bathroom with isolated shower; two guest cabins with ensuites sit to port — in 3- or 4-cabin layouts.

Self-sufficient cruising

1,365 W of solar generation, 660 L of water and 600 L of fuel, plus a Raymarine electronics suite and optional water maker, keep long-distance cruising effortless.
