General Description

“Lorrie Ann” is an amazing example of Leopard’s 53 Power Cat. This 53 PC has been maintained professionally since it was new. This Cat has been lightly cruised by a knowledgeable owner. All service and maintenance is performed on a tight schedule and unexpected issues are addressed immediately with an open checkbook policy. The owner is downsizing to a smaller yacht, which allows “Lorrie Ann” to be offered at an aggressive asking price and will not disappoint any prospective buyer.

The Leopard 53 PC is an engineering marvel. The 25’ beam allows for an incredible amount of living space in a 53’ yacht. Another marvel is the 17 knot (light load) cruising speed with twin 370 hp diesels. Conventional v-hull yachts require double to triple that power requiring a fuel burn to support it. 460 miles of range at 17 knots on just 560 gallons of diesel is unheard of with a conventional monohull. The Leopard 53 PC is reliable, efficient, practical, and yet comfortable and elegant.

“Lorrie Ann” offers three full staterooms, three full heads w/ showers plus separate crew’s quarters accessible from the bow. The master is located within the starboard hull with an island queen berth and private head & shower. The two VIP staterooms are located to port, and both with island queen berths and private heads & showers. Each interior living, dinning and stateroom area has been designed to offer a view of the water. The design philosophy of the Leopard 53 is to bring the beauty of the water inside. The lower helm station means boating in inclement weather can be done in comfort and the visibility is excellent despite her 25’ beam. The salon dinning and lounging areas have magnificent views even when seated, made possible by the low design of the windows. The Aft Galley and Salon open completely to the cockpit so that entertaining easily flows from inside to outside. The bridge is expansive with lounge seating for up to seven, a double helm seat and a sun pad that may easily handle four sunbathers. The aft deck is large and offers seating for up to nine adults. The electrically actuated swim platform carries the tender and easily launches and retrieves that tender. Two additional sun lounge areas on the bow also will accommodate up to 4 sunbathers comfortably.

Cockpit, Swim Platform

The Swim Platform is very large, large enough to hold a tender and can be electrically submerged to launch and retrieve the tender as well as to access the water by passengers for swimming, snorkeling, and scuba diving.

The Cockpit is quite large, and the cockpit table is large enough to seat seven adults comfortably. The faux teak decks are gorgeous and offer sure footing even when wet. The cockpit has easy access to the aft galley, so lounging and enjoying the mild tropical breezes doesn’t mean being without refreshments and snacks. The aft deck is a great place to lounge when the weather is mild.

Salon

The Salon within the Leopard 53 PC is elegant, yet comfortable. From the beautiful satin wood furnishings to the rich neutral toned tweed seating surfaces, luxury surrounds you. The Galley is aft and open directly to the aft deck, making cockpit entertaining enjoyable and fun. When the weather is mild, this is a great feature for entertaining or just relaxing with the family. All the windows in the Salon are set low so that even when seated at the Lounge or Dinette, you have an excellent sight line to whatever views surround the vessel.

Galley

The aft galley is open to the salon, so preparing food and drink doesn’t take you out of the socializing. The solid surface sand-colored counters are simply gorgeous. High end appliances are arranged practically for either crew or owner food preparation. Storage is copious and easily allows multi week cruises without having to provision at every port.

Lower Helm

When the weather is less than perfect, or it is just time to take a break, the lower helm has full instrumentation putting you in complete control and is a comfortable place to operate the vessel. The foredeck is just seconds away through the watertight door. The Leopard 53 PC may be comfortably cruised in any weather.

Master Stateroom

The Master Stateroom is spectacular and located within the Starboard hull and has its own private head and shower. The large hull side windows allow beautiful views and the natural lighting keeps the stateroom bright. The Island Queen berth provides all the comfort of home. Many storage cabinets and drawers are provided. The En-suite Head and Shower features a full-size commode.

VIP Staterooms

The VIP Staterooms are located within the port hull. They are as comfortable as or more comfortable than many vessels master suite. The large ports offer a view and natural lighting to keep the staterooms bright and cheery. Each stateroom has an en-suite head & shower with electric head and all the comforts of a master suite. There is plenty of storage to make longer cruises easy and comfortable.

Flybridge

The flybridge is simply huge with a comfortable helm station with all the necessary instrumentation and electronics to operate the vessel in safety. There is a comfortable lounge/dining table that comfortably seats 6 to 8 passengers. The wet bar has refrigeration, ice maker, grill, sink and storage. The aft sun pad is a great place to lounge and soak up some vitamin D. What a great place to take in the views whether underway or on the hook.

Foredeck & Ground Tackle

The foredeck is more than just a workspace for anchoring and docking, twin double sun lounges make it a great space to lounge and take in some sun. Of course, there is easy access to the ground tackle and windlass as well as copious storage for lines & fenders.
