The Leopard 42 has quickly established itself as one of the most popular cruising catamarans in its size class, building on Robertson & Caine's reputation for thoughtful, owner-focused design. With a forward cockpit, excellent all-around visibility, and a layout optimized for both passage-making and liveaboard comfort, the Leopard 42 appeals to cruisers who want serious capability without sacrificing modern conveniences. Her efficient hull form and manageable size make her an easy boat to handle short-handed, while her interior volume rivals catamarans several feet longer.
This 2023 example stands apart from the rest of the market. Privately owned and never chartered, she has been optioned and upgraded well beyond factory standard, with particular attention paid to her electrical system, navigation suite, and exterior comfort features. From a 1,200Ah lithium battery bank to electric sail-handling winches to a fully equipped Highfield tender, this Leopard 42 is configured for buyers who intend to spend real time aboard, whether at the dock, at anchor, or well offshore.

I recently sold my Lagoon 450 with the Multihull Team. I would highly recommend their services. The professionalism and personal treatment I received was greatly appreciated.
Great Service, Great People
Helped me through the process.
I would go through them again in a future purchase.
The Multihull Company made the process of buying our boat easy and predictable. Both our agent (Francisco Montaner) and Andrew Holland communicated well and educated/informed us of each step in the process. I highly recommend The Multihull Company for those shopping for a catamaran!
Chuck at The Multihull Company is the real deal.
He helped us find our Lagoon 40 after genuinely listening to what we needed, not just what he had to sell. He let us visit the boat multiple times, answered every question honestly, and helped us make a confident decision on a major purchase.
What impressed us most was the post-sale support. Once the paperwork was signed, Chuck was still picking up the phone, offering referrals, and helping us work through the early stages of liveaboard life. That kind of follow-through is rare.
If you are looking for a multihull and want someone who knows the boats and actually cares about the outcome, Chuck is the person to call.
We just purchased a 2025 Nautitech 44 Open with The Multihull Company. The process of getting here has been great, and we could not have asked for a better agent. We worked with Conor, whom we met at the 2025 Cannes Boat Show. We started our search for a cruising catamaran in Florida at the beginning of the year. We spent a couple of months looking at different boats/models within our price range and quickly narrowed it down to what really mattered to us, in part thanks to the wealth of knowledge and expertise our broker provided. When we found a perfect match in Montenegro, Conor and The Multihull Company did not hesitate to continue supporting us and to lead the efforts from start to finish with great care and transparency. Communication and support have been outstanding throughout this entire process. Conor, in particular, showed great compassion and care, going above and beyond to ensure that no stone was left unturned and that we would be able to safely and happily sail off into our big adventure.
Successful relationships cannot exist without it. At The Multihull Company we base every relationship on a firm commitment to earning and retaining our client’s trust.
