The Leopard 52 takes the eco-conscious design of its predecessor, the SAIL Top 10 Best Boats winning Leopard 46, and scales it up. The 52 features integrated solar panels and an optional hybrid electric drive that can generate power, further improving energy autonomy.

The Leopard 52 focuses on togetherness for the crew, evident from the grand companionway door that unifies the cockpit and salon to the helm, which connects to both the aft cockpit and coachroof lounge. Improved visibility and abundant natural light create a sense of airiness in the living space, with panoramic views . Touches like anti-glare lighting and refined interior finishes elevate the experience. Designed for freedom of movement and clean lines, the Leopard 52 offers a range of layout options, from a three-cabin configuration with a utility room to a six-cabin setup. The boat’s versatility extends to features like a salon table that converts between dining and coffee table modes, allowing guests to easily customize their space. With a larger rig and upgraded sails, the Leopard 52 also has improved upon the sailing experience, blending performance, luxury, and adaptability in one design brief.
