The Leopard 45, produced by the South African powerhouse Robertson & Caine, represents a critical evolution in the mid-sized cruising catamaran market. While an earlier Leopard 45 was launched in 1997 and served as a foundational pillar for the brand's reputation, the modern Leopard 45 (introduced circa 2017) has become the definitive benchmark for the "blue water comfort" category. Designed by the renowned naval architecture firm Simonis & Voogd, the vessel was engineered to bridge the gap between the smaller Leopard 40 and the flagship Leopard 50. It serves a dual identity: a robust, high-throughput platform for The Moorings (labeled as the Moorings 4500) and Sunsail (the Sunsail 454), and a sophisticated, privately-owned long-distance cruiser. According to Leopard Catamarans, the design was specifically intended to refine the styling and functionality of its predecessor, the Leopard 44, which introduced the brand's signature forward cockpit.
