The Leopard 38, designed by the renowned firm Morrelli & Melvin and built by South African powerhouse Robertson & Caine, represents a landmark in the evolution of the compact cruising catamaran. Launched in late 2009 to replace the Leopard 37, this model was engineered to bridge the gap between charter-friendly volume and genuine offshore performance. It achieved immediate critical acclaim, securing the 2010 Cruising World Boat of the Year award for Best Multihull Cruiser and Sail Magazine’s Best Boats honors. While the vessel was branded as the Leopard 38 for private owners, it served a prolific dual life in global charter fleets, designated as the Moorings 393 and the Sunsail 384. This model is often categorized alongside its nearly identical successor, the Leopard 39, which utilized the same hull mold but introduced a factory-standard hardtop bimini and minor interior refinements.
