Leopard 44 · 2012

Location: Malaysia Original price: S$525,000 (converted to USD at the exchange rate of 14/10/2026) 2012 Leopard 44 Sailing Catamaran for Sale in Malaysia Kierana – 2012 Leopard 44 Sailing Catamaran for Sale Extensively Equipped Liveaboard Catamaran with 12,000Ah Lithium Batteries, 2,250W Solar & Customised Owner’s Layout Kierana is a 2012 Leopard 44 sailing catamaran extensively adapted for comfortable, independent liveaboard cruising. With an impressive electrical system, substantial solar generation, watermaker, air-conditioning and a customised interior, she offers an attractive opportunity for buyers seeking a cruising catamaran already equipped for life aboard. Originally built with four cabins, Kierana has been thoughtfully modified by her current owner, who purchased her from Sunsail in 2019. The forward starboard cabin has been converted into a dedicated office, while the forward port cabin now serves as a workshop and utility room, complete with storage, workbench space and a washing machine. The two original port-side bathrooms have also been combined into one larger bathroom with a rain shower. A particular highlight is her 12,000Ah lithium battery installation, supported by 2,250W of solar panels and a Victron inverter/charger. This system has been configured to support overnight air-conditioning in both aft cabins, providing a level of comfort and energy independence that is particularly valuable when cruising in tropical climates. Kierana is powered by twin Yanmar 3JH5E 39HP diesel engines with saildrives and folding propellers, each with approximately 4,500 running hours. A Northern Lights 6kW diesel generator provides additional electrical power when required. Currently located at Senibong Cove in Johor, Malaysia, Kierana is French flagged, with EU VAT not paid, and is available for viewing by appointment. Customised Liveaboard Accommodation One of Kierana’s most distinctive features is her accommodation layout, which has been modified to prioritise the needs of an owner living aboard full-time rather than retaining the original four-cabin charter configuration. The two aft double cabins remain in use as sleeping accommodation, each benefiting from air-conditioning powered by the yacht’s substantial lithium battery and solar installation. The forward starboard cabin has been converted into a dedicated home office, providing a separate working environment away from the main saloon. With Starlink connectivity aboard, this arrangement is particularly appealing to owners who work remotely while cruising. On the port side, the forward cabin has become a workshop and utility room, incorporating a washing machine, storage and dedicated workbench space. This is a valuable addition for long-distance cruising, where tools, spare parts and the ability to carry out maintenance independently can make a significant difference. The two original port-side bathrooms have been combined into one larger bathroom with a rain shower, creating a more comfortable arrangement for everyday living.
