2008 ROBERTSON AND CAINE LEOPARD 46 – Firefly
BUILDERS REMARKS: The Leopard 46/Moorings 4600 is the accumulation of 30 years charter experience by the Moorings and 1000 catamarans built by Robertson and Caine. No other mid forty foot catamaran matches the interior space, walk around beds, separate stall showers with excellent sailing performance and ease of maintenance.
BROKERS REMARKS: FIREFLY was launched in 2008, and has had a refit in 2016 to a high standard, then for the past four years there have been countless upgrades, including a top of line water maker, and generator. Being a crewed yacht, the yacht is very well maintained, and the owners took the approach of an open check book during their happy ownership. Having sold many Leopard 46’s over the years, this is by far the best example of this vintage. There are countless upgrades to this yacht, well beyond what you normally see on Leopard 46, which makes this yacht a truly turn key package. The owner is very motivated to sell Firefly, so please enquire for details.
