In the latest video of our review series I break down the windows, sharing our experience of what went wrong on our Leopard 45. This includes our Cape Town warranty experience, Atlantic Ocean debonding, leak test that filled the owner hull and the root causes behind the leak that expose some extremely poor workmanship on behalf of the boat builder, Robertson & Caine.
