Awards & Recognition
Recognition earned across decades of innovation, bluewater capability and owner-focused design. From Cruising World and SAIL Magazine to leading international boating awards, Leopard Catamarans has been honoured across both sailing and power catamaran categories.
Award-Winning by Design
Leopard Catamarans has built a reputation for combining offshore capability, practical layouts and liveaboard comfort in sailing and power catamarans designed for private ownership. Built by Robertson & Caine in Cape Town, South Africa, Leopard has earned recognition from respected marine publications and industry organisations around the world.
These awards reflect more than design appeal alone. They highlight the long-term strength of the Leopard range across performance, innovation, comfort and cruising suitability. With more than 3,500 catamarans delivered worldwide, Leopard’s track record is backed by both industry recognition and real-world owner experience.
