Some boat tours are staged. This one isn’t. Stefan filmed his own self-guided walkthrough of S/V Rainbow Safari, a 2018 Leopard 45, from the helm seat of a boat he bought new and has lived on with his family for the last seven years — and the result is less a sales pitch than an honest handover briefing from one cruiser to the next. The history is worth stating up front, because it shapes everything else in the video. Rainbow Safari was delivered in April 2018 to Singapore, where the family was living at the time.…

When the charter industry took notice, they requested smaller sailing cats for their fleets, so Leopard provided the 38-foot model, as well as a 42-foot model.

Leopard 46 Review: Better than a Lagoon?
