We proudly bring you the next generation of Leopard Catamarans. The Leopard 50 was designed to replace the best-selling Leopard Catamaran of all time, the Leopard 48. She is shown here as the Leopard 50L, complete with a flybridge lounge, however sailors looking for the familiar, continuous hardtop can opt for the Leopard 50P. This version does not have the flybridge and can deliver increased performance particularly when fitted with the offered squaretop mainsail and other available performance-orientated rigging and sail options.

HELEN is the first in a remarkable triptych of late 1930s 3rd International Rule 8-Metres drawn by experienced designer to the Rule and Olympic gold medal winning helmsman Sir Thomas Glen-Coats; built on the Clyde in consecutive years at the Mylne family’s Bute Slip Dock Co. yard, where Glen-Coats was a director and major backer. https://www.sandemanyachtcompany.co.uk/yacht/765/HELEN They were among the last full keel 8mRs built in Britain and represent the pinnacle of truly classic 8-Metre design. At the end of her initial class-racing days, conversion by her original builder to an able, and of course fast, cruiser-racer kept HELEN very much alive, so that when the 8-Metre Class revival began in the early 2000s, she was a natural subject for restoration and application of the subtle authenticity and performance treatments allowed under the Sira Cup World Championship Rules for boats built before 1960. HELEN is very well equipped and optimised to be competitive at the next major 8mR championship and simply to be enjoyed as a supremely elegant and fleet of foot day/ weekend racer-cruiser.

This was a great day. Meeting the amazing folks that hang around marinas. Boat people seem to be a different type. They’re helpful and sharing and friendly. Meeting David as he was headed out to drop some crab traps paid dividends when he came back later in the day and would not accept anything in exchange for his time collecting crabs. Two fresh crabs for dinner! Then, later in the day, we helped James and Betty load up their inflatable tender. Asking them if it was for sale and then how much they wanted for it…ended up being ours for free. We’ve been looking at hard-bottom tenders for a couple weeks, and the prices are ridiculous! We’re talking in the ballpark of $7k for new 3 metre hard-bottoms. So, this little boat is a truly appreciated gift. I am filled with gratitude right now.
