About the LEOPARD 42 / MOORINGS 4200 (2001-2004)
Designed by Simonis-Voogd and built by Robertson and Caine, the Leopard 42 / Moorings 4200 is a robust twin-keel cruiser produced between 2001 and 2004. With a total production run of 50 hulls, this model represents a specific era of South African-built offshore cruisers known for their stability and ease of handling.
- Best for:
- This boat is ideally suited for coastal and offshore cruisers who prioritize easy single-handed handling and the ability to anchor in shallow, uncharted waters thanks to its twin-keel design. It appeals to owners seeking a stable, comfortable platform for long-range cruising without the complexity of a centerboard or deep fin keel.
- Bluewater capability:
- With a displacement of 19030.0 lb and a capsize ratio of 3.41, the Leopard 42 exhibits strong offshore stability and resistance to capsizing, supported by its proven twin-keel hull form designed for safe passage in heavy weather.
- Comparables:
- Primary comparables include the Lagoon 410 and the Beneteau Oceanis 40, which offer similar beam and interior volume but differ in keel configuration. The Leopard 42 distinguishes itself from these monohulls through its twin-keel stability and shallower draft, making it more comparable to the Hallberg-Rassy 41 in terms of offshore pedigree but with a distinct South African build character.
