Leopard 46 Powercat Features Video 2022 by BoatTEST.com 

I had to see the video twice. The first time was looking at Shelley, the second time was looking at the boat!!

Great review. Looking forward to the performance video. Thank you.

0.48 I love this layout diagram. It's great to see clearly the main indoor area of this fine boat. Also, it shows another thing that I really like about catamarans: The separation between the cabins on either side of the boat, for extra sound privacy. I haven't been inside a catamaran personally, but I have heard stories of noisy neighbours on land, so keeping those cabins separated by not just opposite sides of the boat, but also, down in the water, in separate hulls, does seem like a good design consideration infavour of catamarans over mono hulls.

1:33 I love that drying station. Like Captain Steve said, if you have just a couple of dishes, it's great. I'm thinking of let's say a couple on a romantic weekend on the water, or a lone boater, on an adventure / taking time out.

First off, before anything else, great video as always. 😉👍 That said..love the idea of a co-host, ESPECIALLY if it's a person who owns or lives aboard the boat being reviewed. One thought, though: Have the live-aboard owner talk a bit about how that boat meets his/her needs, a bit as to WHY that boat was chosen, maybe? To help us see through the owner's eyes, as it were. Also, great job on sharing the walkthrough and the commenting on the boat. Although...LOL...it did seem to throw Captain Steve off his rhythm just a bit. Overall, really enjoyed the video, and I think everyone did a fantastic job. Thanks, to everyone!

Cool edition!

Looks good Capt Steve...VIP cabin looks better than the Master cabin :-)

I love the fact that there are no steps in the main living area of this boat. Single steps are a trip hazard, as it's harder for your brain to notice them subconsciously, as opposed to a flight of steps. Thank God for this great layout and this absolutely beautiful interior design.

I don't understand: Why all the "empty" space around the sides of the cabin? I don't like: Two "half good" en suites when there could be one really nice toilet (dayhead) and one really nice shower. If family it's normal to share, if guest it's ok to take what you get. Two beds don't need two en suites...

Great boat and layout, really looks like a 50+ Cat. Just wish Leopard would move more toward solar energy. Tech is there to at least run the appliances and AC. Side windows in the suites are very narrow compared to competitors. I want to lay in bed and see the water , surroundings and amazing view not having to sit up. Major point for me. Great job in main deck, 360 views while seated. Great visual and safety factor. When on boats I am constantly keeping a visual of my surroundings, be it weather, position, other vessels etc as the captain or crew member. Visibility is key on a boat. Leopard have done a excellent job here. Love how you can walk around aft outside table for quick access to stern. Forward door access to bow area and added ventilation is great. Top boat for under 50ft. Well done.

Nice!

I love that flybridge...for summer weather

2:05 I love that amount of storage across from the galley. That will presumably be used up by most people as well used galley items, I'm guessing. For example a blender, pots, pans, extra cutting board's, those fresh coconuts you stockpiled from and island you sailed tonthe day before...also I'm guessing some sort of compost bin if composite bins are practical on boating trips.

This would be great!

Leopard is great and i love their powercats, but they seem to miss the little details often like the extra slots for the forward loungers. or the tv in the master not being able to be rotated or adjusted to face the birth.

tks for the video, nice and smooth. I'll make the first ocean crossing with this model next August, from South Africa to Brazil and I am sure it will be great! Cheers. Cap. Kodja, from NAUTICA MAGAZINE BRAZIL.

I was worried Captn Steve was going to get stuck walking through that companion way!

Great video, did I miss the price?

Huge fan of the bow design. Not sure what the specific term such an approach is called but reminds me of a Thistle Sailboat.

No crew cabin?

A 50” that only 2 people can watch sitting down. Awesome design.

2:24 This is a very, family friendly living space.

Lots of sharp edges and corners in the interior to bang into while in rough seas

is there a drain in front of the front door? Either rain or waves will make that a pool quickly. The same issue is on the 53.

Captain Steve, Aquila or Leopard? Which is your favourite?

I assume that TV comes out on an articulated arm?

Nice 👍👍🇦🇺

That grill is tiny

Liked the videos better with just Captain Steve.

Very nice but Carpet does not belong in a catamaran or a yacht or a trowler !

don't like the tv placement in master

I like the concept of having a co-moderator from time to time. :-) It's like music: an awesome duet beats any solo singer at any time! It doesn't mean, I'd be a big fan of Mrs. Morton... But, I like the concept of establishing some co-workers for... let's say... to bridge some leisure time for a vacation? Stuff like that. Spreading the work to get a better work-life-ratio. :o)

Great video, and boat.. just a SECURTY thought maybe you can pass along. ( ok, say dad and the kids leave on the dingy mom wants a nap. ) Bad guys try to board . Why not a pressure alarm on the sugar scoops, and simm platform. Owners set how many pounds for the alarm to go off Male average 125 pounds. Someone steps on board...alarm gos off. Mom, has a ALERT, quick video, and can hit, the panic, lock all doors. Button....how cool would that be.... For at sea or any dock.....maybe I should have got a patent..

No engine room !? Really !?

The TV in the master is idiotic.. It's literally facing the stairs, wtf !?

Nice use of solar and batteries. Not. Such a shame Leopard hasn’t yet joined the 21st Century.

I know not a lot of people care about a tv on a boat like this, but what idiot decided to put a 40” tv in the master bedroom that can only be watched if you’re standing, leaning against a wall, 2 feet from the screen?
