The Leopard 39, designed by the renowned American naval architects Morrelli & Melvin and built by the prolific South African yard Robertson & Caine, represents a significant refinement in the evolution of compact cruising catamarans. Introduced as an upgrade to the Leopard 38—which earned "Boat of the Year" honors from both Cruising World and SAIL Magazine—the Leopard 39 retains the proven hull form of its predecessor while introducing a comprehensive hardtop bimini and a revamped interior. This model was a cornerstone of the global charter industry, frequently branded as the Moorings 3900 or the Sunsail 384, but it gained equal traction among private coastal cruisers and blue-water voyagers looking for a manageable, robust platform under 40 feet. The design philosophy focuses on ease of handling, ventilation, and the "open-plan" living experience that has become the hallmark of the Leopard line.
