           TESTIMONIAL:

                  "Just wanted to let you know how much of a pleasure it was doing the wiring on OpsMobile (48 Leopard). With the                            schematics Leopard provides it makes identifying and understanding the circuits and systems on their boats a snap. I                      can only imagine how much time this saves technicians and owners doing installations or trying to understand how the                    systems are laid out on board the boat."            Brendon Bell, Owner - PRIME YACHT SYSTEMS     Sidney, BC

 

 

CONSTRUCTION


Robertson and Caine use a proven GRP sandwich construction with a vacuum bonded balsa core, providing high rigidity, impact resistance and buoyancy. The deck and bulkheads are bonded to the hull with advanced adhesives. Glass tabbing is applied in high stress areas, to ensure maximum strength.

 

The hull laminate is light and durable resulting in a dynamic weight-carrying capacity and excellent motion reaction of the hull, yet is also strong for peace of mind when sailing.

 

Our catamarans contain all the top features that sailor's desire, including blue water capability, great performance, solid construction, a superb anchoring system, excellent ventilation, high quality equipment, large tank capacities (standard) and a standard hard top on all models. Standard equipment can be enhanced by a range of quality optional items including generator, air-conditioning, water-makers and more.
