53 Powercat
Description
The Leopard 53PC is the most successful power catamaran built by Robertson & Caine. Unlike the builder’s earlier powercats, which were based on sailing platforms, this is their first design in nearly 20 years developed from the beginning to be a motor yacht. The 2025 Leopard 53 Althea is without a doubt the best example of a Leopard 53 PC currently on the market.
She is an extremely well spec'd from the factory with noteworthy features including:
- Bow thruster
- Upgraded RayMarine Axiom electronics, including dual screens at both the flybridge helm and lower helm
- 12KW transformer for global shore power
- Glendenning shore power reel
- Fresh water heads
- Washer/Dryer combo unit
- Dishwasher
- Flybridge wet-bar w/infrared grill, ice maker, and refrigerator
- Wine fridge
- Hydraulic platform
Althea was further improved with an extensive list of aftermarket upgrades with zero expense spared. She is without a doubt the most well equipped Leopard 53PC currently on the market with over $2,000,000 invested in the program. Some of those well thought out upgrades include:
- Flexiteak added to the cockpit and flybridge
- 2800 watts of solar on the hardtop
- Custom 48v electrical system that allows the entire boat to run "Silent"
- 28.8 KW of top of the line Victron Lithium batteries
- Victron Quatro 15KW inverter
- Victron Quatro 10 KW inverter
- High output Rainmain water maker
- Oil change system for both Yanmar diesels
- Sonic Hull Antifouling System
- Custom cabinetry throughout the boat

- Custom boarding steps for either port or starboard side boarding gates
- Owner's stateroom berth expanded for king-size bed
If you are in the market for either a new Leopard 53 Power Cat, or pre-owned Leopard 53 Power Cat, Althea is worth considering.
