Boat Description

If you’ve owned boats, then you already know that there are some boats that once you step onboard, you understand that they have been taken care of and loved. This is our Sweet Escape! She’s a two-owner vessel. The original owners sailed her around the world on a 15-year cruise, and like them, we have kept her ship shape. She’s clean, mechanically sound, full of spares, and ready to go again in comfort & safety. 


Due to health issues, we have made a generous price improvement to incentivize potential buyers. 


Embrace the ultimate freedom of life on the water with S/V Sweet Escape, a 2007 Leopard 40 Catamaran (Owner’s Version) with 3 spacious cabins and 2 heads with separate showers, & lots of storage. Your home on the water! You can be fully self-sufficient and live off-grid… ANYWHERE! 


This isn’t just a boat; it’s a gateway to explore the world’s most breathtaking destinations. From the Bahamas to the Caribbean and beyond, Sweet Escape has proven itself a trusted companion on epic journeys – and it’s ready for yours.


Or perhaps you’d like to live life aboard for less! You could do that right here at Dinner Key Marina & Moorings for under $500/mo, and enjoy amenities like laundry, unlimited showers, water to fill your tanks, a free dinghy dock, free vehicle parking, free local shuttles, and even a water taxi. 


Sweet Escape is the perfect liveaboard Bluewater cat that can go anywhere you want. With an air draft of 63′, she is also ICW-capable.

These boats are light and fast. The lighter weight allows her to ride easily over waves, and her sharp bows and clean underwater profile minimize drag. Visibility is excellent over the coach roof, and a sliding hatch cover in the hard cockpit Bimini over the helm makes it easy to keep track of sail shape. The cockpit and salon include inside and outside cushions. Interior cushions have removable/washable covers.



The Galley is practical with large cabinets for storage and Corian countertops that are heat-resistant, a double stainless steel sink with a brand new fawcet with pull-out sprayer. The salon table easily seats 4, and with a couple of indoor/outdoor chairs, can seat 8. Outdoor dining accommodates eight people sitting comfortably while leaving free access to the cockpit. The cockpit transitions to the aft steps which aid with easy entry in/out of the water. 


Sweet Escape has almost new Yanmar engines (Oct 2022), plus recent bottom paint and completely detailed hulls (Oct 2024).  During her circumnavigation, while her original owners were caught up in the Covid shutdown in 2020, she underwent a refit in Cape Town where she was built. Upgrades included: Lithium iron phosphate batteries, new sails and sail bag, new trampoline, 1300 watts of solar, new salon flooring, inside and outside cushions redone, custom carpeting throughout, two custom-made mattresses, and more.



The 3-cabin layout features an owner-dedicated starboard hull with a master stateroom, office area, and large head with a separate shower forward. The entire owners’ wing” can be discreetly closed off, creating complete privacy and the luxurious feeling of being able to roam undisturbed while guests or children enjoy the rest of the boat. Guests will enjoy the large cockpit with an outside dining area, protected by a functional hard-top Bimini, fitted as standard, as well as a custom enclosure. Guest accommodations (Port Hull) include one queen cabin with a custom mattress in the stern and a double cabin forward. In the port forepeak there is a 1.9 cubic ft. chest freezer hard-wired into the electrical system. There is a head with a separate shower located mid-ship.


These older Leopards were built strong and her foundation is still strong. She has never encountered a hurricane, has had no pets, and no smoking. All systems are in good working condition.


This vessel is fully equipped for off-grid adventures or tranquil marina life. Whether you’re a seasoned sailor or dreaming of becoming a digital nomad, Sweet Escape offers the perfect blend of freedom, comfort, and capability, including the Starlink satellite system.
