2015 Leopard 44 - Balto
Balto is an outstanding 2015 Leopard 44, thoughtfully configured in the sought-after owner’s version layout, ideal for couples or families seeking comfort, adventure, and true freedom on the water. With a spacious master cabin spanning the entire starboard hull, she delivers remarkable liveaboard comfort for extended cruising.
New Zealand-flagged with taxes paid, Balto is fully equipped and currently voyaging through the Pacific, ready for new owners to step aboard and continue the journey.
Designed for long-term independence and exploration, she features abundant storage for all your adventure gear – from surfboards and foils to kites, wings, and dive equipment.
Her impressive off-grid capability includes 1600 watts of solar, 800Ah of lithium batteries, a watermaker, generator, and a powerful 250-amp Balmar alternator – giving you the freedom to stay in remote anchorages for extended periods without relying solely on solar or genset power.
Balto has been maintained with an emphasis on safety and reliability. Recent standing rigging replacement and twin autopilots provide added redundancy, while her dependable Yanmar engines ensure confidence wherever your course may lead.
When it’s time to relax, Balto offers a variety of inviting spaces. The forward cockpit with signature access from the saloon is perfect for morning coffee or sundowners, while the spacious aft cockpit creates an ideal setting for entertaining family and friends. Her clever layout ensures everyone onboard can enjoy both solitude and social moments with ease.
More than just a catamaran, Balto is a proven platform for adventure, comfort, and off-grid capability. Whether your dreams include remote anchorages or days filled with watersports, she is equipped and ready to bring those dreams to life.
Contact Will Anido at The Yacht Sales Co to arrange a private inspection or request further information. Balto is ready to set sail on her next adventure.
