About
Meet AKASA, a very smart long distance cruising cat. The Leopard 46 was built between 2006 and 2012 and exported worldwide, AKASA was launched in 2009. She comes to the market today as a complete cruising cat and her owners have not only equipped their boat so well, but their maintenance also shows a depth of knowledge that is such a bonus to buyers. Energetically prepared for sale, the boat was recently hauled out for thorough hull inspections.. all coatings removed and hundreds of moisture readings taken. The readings were perfect and the boat was returned to the water with fresh anti foul in February 2026. Only as a future preventative measure, the owners had two new fuel tanks made in plastic, dimensions so that they fit through doorways down below. These are presently stored by the davits.
AKASA is certainly a self sufficient boat, an impressive 1764 watt solar array with MPPT control and new lithium batteries. A 9kVA Northern Lights genset is fixed in the port forepeak and rarely required.
Life aboard is comfortable and elements like the reverse osmosis water set up for delivering perfectly potable water from the tanks add yet more to the liveability. Airconditioning has been upgraded, three new 12VDC 12,000 BTU units installed in February 2026.
The boat has had modern navigation aids installed, plotters inside and outside, the rigging was replaced in 2017 and has had frequent inspections since, up to date safety gear, all cruising kit and caboodle... plus so many spares... a real turn key boat.

A word from the owners
“The Leopard 46 is a great sailing boat that will let you feel safe in all conditions, with good visibility to all corners of the boat. We have made Akasa our home for almost three years, and couldn’t have been happier with Akasa’s performance and comfort over the 10,000 nautical miles that we have travelled. The 1.4m draft means that you can tuck Akasa into almost any anchorage and the robust Rocna MkII anchor tackle means that you can feel comfortable sleeping or leaving Akasa for land adventures. Akasa can be the centre of activity when you are cruising with other boats, given the ample cockpit and salon space, or a private refuge with plenty of space to move and think.
The adventure awaits and Akasa is a boat that can take you anywhere you want to go”. (Bali. Indonesia. September 2025).
Accommodation
A four cabin boat, each hull has two bathrooms amidships, with a dry head and shower. The two aft cabins can be described as staterooms, with Queen size island berths and ensuite heads and showers which are a generous size and enclosed by proper doors. The forward cabins have semi-island double berths, access to the ensuite heads and separate showers, and as for all the other cabins, have ample storage lockers and hanging wardrobes. The port forward head has been converted to pantry / utility room with floor to ceiling pantry and siting the washing machine while still being usable as a sink /vanity.
On the bridgedeck the living space very much shares with the spacious cockpit, the galley tucking up next to the cockpit. In addition to two overhead hatches, there are three opening ports in the forward facing saloon windows, creating abundant airflow.
The Cockpit
A big feature of this boat, the design of the cockpit gives pleasantly curving seats, lounges and easy access to the transoms. The Leopard 46 cockpit is very often a subject of envy! Perhaps it is the 25’ beam, which
contributes to the sense of lateral space, and the way the interior lounge / saloon is positioned somewhat further
forward, slightly reducing interior space but providing the most used part of the boat, the cockpit, with a huge amount of usable and versatile space.
To add to the comfort is the overhead hatch, which opens forward to act as a wind scoop to
provide a cooling breeze, a very nice feature in the tropics. AKASA’S cockpit is fitted with sun shades on all sides.
The helm seat is raised for good visibility and designed to be safe in all weathers. It is a winner for many cruisers who dislike being up many steps in a flybridge, far from everyone else on board and away from everything.

I chose Zee (Zvonimir Kalinic) after posting an ad for a broker on Yacht Sales from about 15 other brokers because he showed professionalism and care right away compared to the others. Most of the brokers never intended to show people my boat but yet somehow expected to collect commission. Zee met me in Novigrad and spent 3 hours taking photos and drone footage and throughout the listing period was communicating continuously and advising me about any offers that came through. His service was at a high standard that I was extremely happy with and felt comfortable at all times especially since I’m in Sydney and my boat is in Montenegro. I can’t recommend Zee highly enough to anyone looking to sell their boat with peace of mind.
The brokerage team has been amazing. They helped me find the right catamaran for our family of four, with enough space for extended family and friends to stay with us anytime. The broker really helped me narrow down what I needed. I started with a long list and eventually narrowed it down to something that was the right fit and price for me.
I cannot speak too highly of Andrew Hodgdon and his colleagues at the Multihull Company.
The process of selling my boat was very smooth and well managed and with excellent communication – especially important as I was unable to be nearby during the sale process. Andrew’s deep knowledge of the market and my boat was very reassuring. We spoke regularly and he kept me closely advised all the way through to a happy sale. I found him a good guy, very helpful, willing to share and bounce ideas around, and I enjoyed working with him. Highly recommended!
Andrew Hodgdon and The Multihull Company are really professional! I just closed a deal with them, and everything was pretty smooth. Andrew was punctual, showed a lot of expertise, and he was honest about all the problems with the boat. He is also giving me the support I need to run all the projects on this boat. This whole process was much better than I was expecting, and I recommend this team! Thank you, Andrew.
