Hull #1 of the 46' model was built in late 2006. While there were a few updates in the first couple of years, there was no major structural changes up to the last boats that came off the line in late 2011. Davits were upgraded from previous models to increased the load capacity.
Originally Leopard Catamarans came with Volvo engines, but in 2008 Leopard switched over to Yanmar’s going forward. The 4JH5E provided the right amount of reliable power to cruise at about 7.5 to 8 knots at 2500rpmThe biggest change update was in 2008 was to the helm area and its hardtop.
Steps from the cockpit directly to the helm were designed in to allow easier access than having to walk around and access from the side deck. This also meant the helm hardtop became a little larger to cover the area. This was the only real design change over the years and a nice benefit.
The helm itself is a great layout and great visibility all around. For docking all four corners are on view. Instruments, controls and winches are well placed for ease of use.
With the sails up 46 performs very well and easy to handle. Quite agile and quick for a larger cat with her Morelli & Melvin design influences. She does not need too much wind either to get up and going and slips along well in lighter breezes. Solid and stable enough though that when things get a bit rougher she is happy to keep charging along and not get uncomfortable.
Interior wise she is very comfortable and large enough to accommodate 4 cabins with ensuite heads. The cabin space in the hulls is good and the ensuite heads have a separate shower area and screen.
The steps along the companionways hide the air conditioning units and pumps which are nice and accessible and easy to work on when need to do something. In fact most systems and access to work on things onboard is good.
Ease of maintenance has always been a big point when designing Leopards.
House batteries are in the port bow locker along with the generator. Starboard side has the large water tanks. Storage is excellent both inside and out and lots of room for cruising gear.
There is a crew cabin with head in the starboard bow and bunk on the port side. These spaces rarely actually get used for crew but make ideal storage spaces otherwise.
The 46 layout is ideal with plenty of usable/workable spaces. Visibility out is great. There also one of the good spots to sit and take in the view while underway.
