Finding Ikigai is a foot Leopard Catamaran, owner's (3 ensuite berths) version. She has never been chartered, and has had 2 careful and meticulous liveaboard owners.

Beautifully designed by Robertson and Caine, she has safely and very comfortably sailed us and our friends around NZ, Tonga, Fiji, New Caledonia and the East Coast of Australia. She is fully equipped for both offshore and coastal cruising, and will be a dream boat for a cruising family, liveaboard couple like us, first time boat owners or old time salties!

Meticulously maintained with a very spacious layout, she has had more than USD $50k of enhancements and upgrades from 2023 to current (details available upon request) including a stunning solar arch array of 2300W so your serene anchorage will never be disturbed by the constant hum of a genset. She is beautifully equipped and ready to move onto today, so you too can start your sailing dream either here in Australia or offshore.

Highlights include: 3 double (1 can be configured as twin) cabins each with their own shower and bathroom; spacious entertaining cockpit and salon opening up to a covered forward cockpit which creates a welcome breeze through the boat, and ideal for those evening sundowners or morning coffees; raised covered helm with comfortable seat for 2; two Yanmar 39HP engines; 2300W solar with owner-designed solar panel arch; 4 MPPT controllers 150/75; 720 Ah lithium battery; new Raymarine Axiom display (Jan 24); Aircon and heating units; Ullman mainsail, genoa with furling system, and Wingmaker (German version of parasail - never used); all lines lead to covered helm making it easy and safe to single hand/shorthand; standing rigging replaced 2023; 2x 390L water tanks; Spectra water maker; Starlink for 24/7 offshore weather files and comms, not to mention onshore movie nights; internal fridge/freezer and external Waeco plug-in fridge, and Miele washing machine. Comes with world - renowned and frequent conversation starter OC Tender: 7 months old, Yamaha 15hp outboard motor and anchor chain. The boat is also fitted with Brunton 3-blade folding/feathering props.

Multiple spares & kit (approx $5K worth), 7 fenders, safety equipment, PFDs, offshore-ready grab bag, and other accessories/amenities thrown in. All servine/maintenance receipts available.

The boat is UK registered so for Australian owners wishing to keep the boat permanently in the country, a total of 15% would be payable to the Government. Hence the base asking price is negotiable.
