S/V Crux is a 2014 Leopard 39 catamaran, for sale by owner. After three years of exciting sailing in the Caribbean, we have decided to sell our Leopard. This boat is very solid and seaworthy and has been an excellent home for us.
In 2010, Leopard announced the 39 model and proceeded to build 126 hulls of that size through 2015. Crafted from the same hull molds as the Leopard 38, the Leopard 39’s main upgrades include the full hardtop over the cockpit and a raised helm station, also covered with a hardtop.
The Leopard 39’s speed on the water and easy handling are its top features, earning it ‘Boat of the Year 2010’ from Cruising World and SAIL magazine. The Leopard 39 features a large cockpit with outside dining area protected by a functional hard-top bimini.
Sailing the Leopard 39 is easy: both main and jib sheets lead to stoppers and self-tailing winches directly adjacent to the helm. The boat has an abundance of outdoor space, and generous sail plan, is easy to maintain and offered at a great price!
We love the Leopard’s galley and living space, especially the back deck for enjoying sunsets. We are the second owners and purchased the vessel directly from Moorings in Belize. This boat has NOT been hurricane damaged.
Crux comes fully equipped with tools, spares, fishing gear, galley equipment, basic household supplies and linen. Come with your backpacks. She is ready to go.
