S/V Sea Glass, a 2011 Leopard 46 catamaran designed by Morrelli and Melvin, is one of the last of their most successful performance cruising catamaran models. Our three-cabin owner model has never been chartered, has no storm or lightning damage, has been well cared for and diligently maintained. A USCG documented vessel, Sea Glass is available now and is located in Maine.  She is turn-key and ready for new owners to sail south for the 2023/4 season. With a 73’ air draft, the standing rigging includes a factory installed compression post for improved sailing performance and a collapsible bowsprit. The sail package includes a Doyle mainsail and furling Genoa, Quantum Code Zero on a continuous furler and two asymmetrical spinnakers with dowsing socks. All sails are in good condition for cruising. Twin Yanmar 4JH-5E (~3.7k hrs./ea.) diesels with SD-60 transmissions/sail drives received 1,000 hr. servicing to Yanmar spec in 2022. A 9kW Northern Lights genset (~6.0K hrs) (also received the manufacturer's required maintenance schedule in 2022/3); Lifeline AGM house battery bank totaling 810A/hr coupled with 1,120 watts of new solar panels (two rigid 400-watt NEC Alpha and two flexible 160-watt Sol-Go panels) are installed on the cockpit and helm decks. https://www.catamaransite.com/catamarans-for-sale/leopard-46-6/
