Leopard 53 Powercat for sale (2021) in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, United States

 “Nautilus” is set up as the best Leopard 53 Powercat on the market for liveaboard cruising. The owners are experienced cruisers and have completed a trip from Martha’s Vineyard down the eastern seaboard and throughout the Bahamas island chains. The boat has now relocated to Fort Lauderdale and is turn-key-ready to enjoy cruising Florida and the Bahamas.   

An attractive array of very useful upgrades have been added to “Nautilus". It is not just the important self-sufficiency items such as a Watermaker and Dishwasher which set her apart but the many additional thoughtful conveniences which you will come to appreciate. Some good examples are: custom-made bug screens for all portholes and doors, extra freezer, custom boarding ladder, a needed extra lower-helm Touch screen display and a Lithium Battery Bank which multiplies capacity, reduces weight by 500lbs and couples with 2 DC-DC chargers.
