Re: Leopard 372

Hi Everybody
Regarding everybodies doubt of these cats being
delivered by sea it is true. My son has delivered one to the Caribean and
Malyasia this year and believe me what he has told me it was no small feat.
They carried on deck 2000 liters and then fuel up at St Helena and then they
went onto Forteleza in Brazil and then onto Tortoula. It was a 36 day trip.
The only draw back was at night when on the brigde is was freezing cold when
leaving Cape town but got hotter at equater.
The boat was very unstable at
high seas andB  he won't do it again. The 47 footer is much better for ocean
crossing. Stick to the shores with the 372 and at best to get some one to do
the trip has to be their first and last.
