2018 Leopard 43 Powercat

About this boat

This 2018 Leopard 43 Powercat is listed at 42.67 ft in overall length and 22.08 ft in beam. Rare Owner’s Version | Never Chartered | Great Loop Veteran | U.S. Duty Paid If you’ve been searching for a Leopard 43 Powercat, this is the one that deserves a closer look. Frida Cat is not a former charter boat being transitioned into private ownership. She is a two-owner, never-chartered, highly desirable Owner’s Version Leopard 43 Powercat that has already completed the Great Loop and is equipped to head right back out cruising. The difference matters. Instead of four charter cabins, the Owner’s Version dedicates the entire starboard hull to a private master suite—creating the kind of storage, privacy and living space that makes a dramatic difference when you’re aboard for months at a time. The port hull provides two additional guest staterooms and a second head, making Frida Cat equally comfortable for a cruising couple, family, or visiting guests. And she isn’t simply spacious. She has been set up to cruise. Twin Yanmar 320HP diesels provide the performance and maneuverability power-cat buyers love, and the starboard engine was replaced with a new Yanmar in 2025 and currently shows approximately 178 hours. The port engine shows approximately 1,647 hours. Already aboard are many of the expensive pieces buyers frequently spend years adding to a cruising boat: Why a Power Cat for the Great Loop? Spend a few minutes aboard Frida Cat and the appeal becomes obvious. At only 42'8" long, her 22'1" beam creates living space that feels more like a considerably larger monohull. The salon offers panoramic visibility, the galley is truly usable for extended cruising, and the cockpit, bow and expansive flybridge provide multiple completely separate outdoor living areas. That beam also creates exceptional stability at anchor and an enormous amount of usable space without forcing buyers into a 50'+ yacht. Frida Cat has already done the Loop. Now she’s ready for the next adventure. Whether that means another Great Loop, months exploring the Bahamas, the Keys, the East Coast or simply living aboard somewhere warm, this is a serious cruising platform that has already been equipped, upgraded and proven. If you’ve been comparing Leopard 43 Powercats, make sure you compare the histories—not just the year and asking price. A privately owned, never-chartered Owner’s Version with U.S. duties paid, extensive cruising equipment and a recently replaced engine is a very different boat from many of the Leopard 43s you’ll find on the market. Frida Cat is currently located in St. Augustine, Florida and is ready to be shown. The listed specifications include 3 cabins, 3 heads, and 640 hp of total engine power.
