New LEOPARD 46 POWERCAT
Here is very interesting news for fans of power catamarans, the well-known South African manufacturer Robertson & Caine announces the upcoming release of the Leopard 46 PC, the second catamaran to integrate the new range of Leopard power catamarans.
Following in the footsteps of the award-winning Leopard 53 Powercat
The new Leopard 46 Powercat brings you all the style, luxury, outdoor living spaces, and home-away-from-home accommodations and comfort of her big sister.
The Leopard 46 Powercat comes in a three or four-cabin layout. The three-cabin owner’s suite boasts a large walk-in closet, desk, and a double vanity. Forward VIP guest cabins offer spacious, island berths and en-suite heads.
Accommodations have been enhanced to make you feel at-home with new soft furnishings, very comfortable beds and great use of space.
