Immaculate Owners Version
Brand NEW Lithium and Solar
The Leopard 40 is known to most experienced multihull cruisers as being one of the best and most well rounded 40’ cruising catamarans ever produced. Designed by the legendary Morelli and Melvin this cat is fun to sail, light, comfortable, capable and easy to manage. The 40 was awarded boat of the year in 2005.
This owners version is a complete package and checks almost all of the boxes for most people searching for a cruising multihull.
Hakuna Matata has never been chartered, and has been pampered by her owner of the past 6 years. In 2022 she recieved several high end upgrades including a top of the line lithium battery and solar charging system. She’s just out of the boatyard with new bottom paint and ceramic waxed hulls.
If you are looking for a well equipped and exceptionally maintained owners version cruising cat, Hakuna Matata will absolutely not dissapoint.

What makes this such a fantastic catamaran?
The Leopard 40 owners version is one of my personal favorite catamaran designs, and Hakuna Matata is an exceptional example.
Here are a few reasons I am so impressed with Hakuna Matata.
Being an owners version, the entire starboard hull is dedicated to the owners suite with private head forward. The port hull has two more private staterooms with a single head separating them.
Hot/ cold shower for cockpit Galley
Corian bar counter with hinged flap Electronics
Raymarine Ray240 VHF Electrical
2 x Water Heaters Mechanical
2 x Cooling water inlet strainers Mast, Rigging and Sails
Winch handle pocket Hull and Anchoring Gear
Anchoring bridle Additional items included
The Leopard 40’s speed on the water and easy handling are its top features, earning it ‘Boat of the Year 2005’ from Cruising World magazine. Guests will enjoy the large cockpit with outside dining area, protected by a functional hard-top bimini, fitted as standard. The galley-up design incorporates a spacious saloon and aft facing galley with a cocktail bar and serving window overlooking the cockpit. Accommodations include 3 or 4 double cabins, an optional berth in the forepeak, and two large heads with separate shower stalls. The 3-cabin layout features an owner-dedicated starboard hull with master stateroom, office area and large head with separate shower forward.
The theoretical maximum speed that a displacement hull can move efficiently through the water is determined by it's waterline length and displacement. It may be unable to reach this speed if the boat is underpowered or heavily loaded, though it may exceed this speed given enough power. Read more.
Classic hull speed formula:
Hull Speed = 1.34 x √LWL
A more accurate formula devised by Dave Gerr in The Propeller Handbook replaces the Speed/Length ratio constant of 1.34 with a calculation based on the Displacement/Length ratio.
Max Speed/Length ratio = 8.26 ÷ Displacement/Length ratio.311
Hull Speed = Max Speed/Length ratio x √LWL
A measure of the power of the sails relative to the weight of the boat. The higher the number, the higher the performance, but the harder the boat will be to handle. This ratio is a "non-dimensional" value that facilitates comparisons between boats of different types and sizes. Read more.
SA/D = SA ÷ (D ÷ 64)2/3
A measure of the stability of a boat's hull that suggests how well a monohull will stand up to its sails. The ballast displacement ratio indicates how much of the weight of a boat is placed for maximum stability against capsizing and is an indicator of stiffness and resistance to capsize.
Ballast / Displacement * 100
A measure of the weight of the boat relative to it's length at the waterline. The higher a boat’s D/L ratio, the more easily it will carry a load and the more comfortable its motion will be. The lower a boat's ratio is, the less power it takes to drive the boat to its nominal hull speed or beyond. Read more.
D/L = (D ÷ 2240) ÷ (0.01 x LWL)³
This ratio assess how quickly and abruptly a boat’s hull reacts to waves in a significant seaway, these being the elements of a boat’s motion most likely to cause seasickness. Read more.
Comfort ratio = D ÷ (.65 x (.7 LWL + .3 LOA) x Beam1.33)
This formula attempts to indicate whether a given boat might be too wide and light to readily right itself after being overturned in extreme conditions. Read more.
CSV = Beam ÷ ³√(D / 64)
