2021 ROBERTSON AND CAINE LEOPARD 40 3 Cabin - Morning Star
BUILDERS REMARKS: The Leopard 40, crafted by South African builders Robertson & Caine, showcases a modern design developed by naval architects Simonis and Voogd along with Robertson & Caine's design team. This model maintains the speed, agility, and blue-water performance of its predecessors while featuring increased hull volume and an innovative interior layout. The galley is positioned forward, complemented by a forward-facing settee, large windows, and an access door to the forward platform. This design allows for panoramic views and promotes easy communication between the saloon and the aft cockpit, enhancing the indoor and outdoor living experience.
BROKERS REMARKS: MORNING STAR offers a unique opportunity to own one of the youngest models in the 40 series, with no hurricane history due to her location and age. This vessel boasts a desirable 3-cabin, 2-head configuration, ideal for couples or families seeking an owner's layout rather than the charter-oriented 4-cabin version. Featuring a refined light Ash interior, she is equipped with air conditioning, a reliable generator, Yanmar engines, electric davits, and a convenient walk-through forward door. New sails were fitted in July. The port engine panel has been replaced, and a new starboard panel is on order. Currently located at our premier Belize facility, known for meticulous refits and seamless handovers, MORNING STAR has just completed a FULL refit and is 100% ready for her next discerning owner. Inspections and immediate sailing are available. A survey is on hand, used for the refit. Photos and a video of the complete yacht are also available. The seller has recently reduced the asking price to $370,000 for a quick sale. Newly added videos showcase the yacht post-refit.
AVAILABILITY: This yacht has finished its Belize refit and is ready to sail away!!
