Description

Home Berth is a 2005 Robertson and Caine Leopard 43 Sailing Catamaran, built in South Africa and designed by Simonis & Voogd. It is a four-cabin/four-head (now two head) blue-water sailing vessel that is incredibly sea-worthy and comfortable to sail. Home Berth is just the right size for two and a couple of friends.

The current owners have lived aboard Home Berth for the past 3 1/2 years, traveling the Caribbean, Bahamas, and the eastern seaboard. She is now ready for her new crew (owners) to take over and continue the journey.
