This 2002 Leopard 42 is listed at 41.42 ft in overall length and 22.75 ft in beam. Meticulously maintained by an engineer owner with extensive service logs, Étoile de Mer is a rare example of a truly turn-key ICW-Friendly cruising catamaran. Equipped with air-conditioning, generator, watermaker, nearly new bluewater sails (2022), and a brand-new RIB dinghy (2025), Étoile de Mer is ready to cruise today. Étoile de Mer is a beautifully maintained 2002 Leopard 42 sailing catamaran that stands out for her thoughtful upgrades and exceptional mechanical care. Owned and maintained by a maintenance engineer, this vessel benefits from extensive maintenance records, detailed service logs, and organized documentation covering every onboard system—a rare level of diligence that will immediately inspire confidence in her next owner. Designed by Simonis-Voogd and built by Robertson & Caine, the Leopard 42 is a proven bluewater cruising platform known for its balance of performance, comfort, and seaworthiness. Étoile de Mer is well equipped for comfortable extended cruising with air conditioning throughout, watermaker, generator, solar, and a comprehensive Raymarine electronics suite. Her straight shaft drives eliminate typical high maintenance issues of sail drives. Her custom bluewater mainsail and 130% genoa were installed in 2022, and have seen very light use, giving the next owner nearly new performance from a professionally designed sail plan. Living aboard or cruising in warm climates is made easy with two Dometic reverse-cycle air conditioning units, while the Village Marine SeaQuencher watermaker ensures independence from marina docks. New Leopard factory spec trampolines installed February 2026. On deck, she is equally well prepared with a brand-new West Marine 10’5” RIB dinghy (2025) paired with a Yamaha 15hp outboard, making shore access fast and reliable. For buyers seeking a well-documented, carefully engineered bluewater capable cruising catamaran, Étoile de Mer represents an outstanding opportunity to step aboard a Leopard 42 that has been maintained with uncommon attention to detail and readiness for her next adventure.
