RSHYR 2025 | Palm Beach XI sailed up the Derwent River just on sunset to take 5th place in Line Honours. A remarkable achievement given the little sailing time the crew had prior to the race and in light of abandoned fishing lines getting wrapped around their keel and dagger boards.

SV Odd@Sea is a 2012 Leopard 46, for sale by owner. It is our home as we are living aboard, she held us safely for much more than 3,000NM. She is well cared for and upgraded, turn-key, 4-cabin, 4-head catamaran, that is perfect for coastal or blue water sailing. We are currently located in the Bahamas, but will be sailing to the US at the end of the month. With the Starlink RV antenna and router, we have enjoyed high-speed internet connection. Built by Robertson and Caine, and designed by renowned architects Morrelli and Melvin, the Leopard 46 is a blue water cruising catamaran that combines spacious living accommodations, high quality fittings and great performance. Designed with a spacious cockpit and saloon layout that is great for entertaining guests. Inspired by the Leopard 62, the raised helm station is located in the hard top roof with open access to the cockpit and all controls lead aft, for excellent visibility and ease of manoeuvering, making this 46 catamaran a very manageable boat with a limited crew. The starboard and port hulls accommodate two spacious guest cabins each with en-suite head and separate shower. The signature access to the roomy cockpit and aft bathing platform connecting the two transoms, completes this exciting model. Do not miss your chance to own this turn key 46 Leopard Catamaran, a perfect combination of performance and comfort. Unfortunately we need to sell our beloved Odd@Sea due to some family issues that need our full attention. In addition, my first mate (wife), even when she loves sailing, she also realized not on full time basis, so we were thinking of eventually scaling down for now and in close future, living part time on the ground and part time at sea. Odd@Sea has given us our best memories yet, and we are really sad to let her go. https://www.catamaransite.com/catamarans-for-sale/leopard-46-4/
