Boat Information
The Leopard 46 is legendary for its performance and functionality. Serenity is the best example of an L46 you will find anywhere. Over the last 18 months she has been constantly upgraded for extended cruising. Family is calling us back home, and Serenity is ready to wow her next owners!
Serenity is a 4 cabin charter version built in 2009. The 2009 and later versions are sought after because they have steps from the cockpit to the helm, as opposed to earlier versions where the only access to the helm was from deck level. As part of the refit, the port forward head was converted to a pantry and laundry room. It has a washer and Dometic chest style refrigerator/freezer depending on how you set the temperature controls.
Every major system has been updated, modified or replaced to add functionality or to better conform to modern practice and standards, including:
- Engines and saildrives
- MaxProps
- Standing rigging
- Running rigging
- Sails
- Stack Pack
- ISTEC Parasailer Spinnaker
