The 2024 Leopard 53 Powercat is a fiberglass catamaran built for extended cruising with a focus on self-sufficiency and comfort. At 53 feet long with a 25-foot beam, the hull is powered by twin Yammer diesel engines totaling 740 horsepower, delivering a cruising speed of 17.5 knots and a maximum speed of 25 knots. With only 70 engine hours, the yacht is essentially new and fully broken in.
The owner's version layout features three staterooms, including an oversized full-hull master suite that spans an entire hull with its own head and generous storage. Two additional guest staterooms accommodate family and friends. The bright, open-plan salon connects seamlessly to the galley and cockpit, with panoramic windows throughout. The galley is fitted with premium appliances and substantial counter and storage space. The yacht's wide side decks and spacious outdoor entertaining areas maximize the catamaran's inherent stability and livability.
For extended off-grid cruising, the yacht is outfitted with a Spectra watermaker, a 2400-watt solar array comprising six panels, and a lithium battery bank capable of powering the air conditioning system for six to eight hours independently. These systems substantially reduce reliance on the generator while maintaining comfort at anchor. The catamaran's efficient hull design delivers excellent fuel economy and cruising range alongside outstanding stability underway and at anchor.
The yacht includes advanced navigation and vessel management systems throughout.
