customer feedback, Leopard pooled their own expertise with builders Robertson and Caine and catamaran architects such as Morelli & Melvin to design the
Leopard line of blue water cruising catamarans. We're proud to say that
over 500 Leopard cats have sailed more than five million miles and the
world’s largest oceans.''

About Leopard 38:
Cruising World BOTY Winner
- by Bill Spriner of
Cruising World:
While the other cat
builders had the benefit of owner feedback, Robertson and Caine, the
builders of the Leopard 38 and the Sunsail 384 (the former available
privately with an owner's cabin to starboard, the latter built for Sunsail
with four cabins and equipped specifically for charter) had the added
benefit of knowing what works—and doesn't—thanks to the legions who opt to
sample cats while on charter. As a result of the collaboration between
Sunsail, the South African builder, and designers Morrelli & Melvin, both
models impressed the judges with strong construction, excellent systems
installations, clever design solutions, and peppy sailing performance. And
the well-executed details—such as the elegantly simple and powerful electric
davit system, the singlehander-friendly helm station, the little lip on the
stairs descending down into the hulls, and the wide platform on the sterns
to make boarding from a dinghy easy—really kept the judges buzzing. After
much debate (involving the other cats as well as the Sunsail version), the
judges named the LEOPARD 38 , with its more owner-specific focus, the Best
Multihull Cruiser as well as the Import Boat of the Year. You'll find more
details on all the winners as well as write-ups on all the nominees as you
read on.

More about L38:
Leopard 38
(or Moorings 3800) catamaran handles easily, has a large
cockpit as well as a nicely appointed saloon and cabins. In
the three cabin version available for charter, a master
suite occupies the starboard hull and the two cabins in the
port hull share heads and showers. The galley is up in the
saloon.
The deck
layout is clear and the main sheet traveller runs on an arch
over the transom giving unimpeded access to the water via a
wide aft bathing platform. The transom arch also serves to
support the aft end of the bimini and to carry the dinghy.
Deep louvre steps shade the forward sloping saloon windows
while providing an easy and secure walkway to the saloon
roof.
The Leopard
38 is a competent performer under sail and power.
