Pogeyan is a 2004 Leopard 47 catamaran currently berthed in Whangarei, New Zealand. The Leopard 47 design provides a low profile for improved sailing performance while also providing great interior headroom. Built by Robertson and Caine, this sleek-looking catamaran was designed for speed, ruggedness, and reliable blue-water performance. Pogeyan has been continuously maintained and looked after by full-time liveaboard owners. The boat has also been continuously upgraded with the latest comfort and safety features. Outfitted to be self-sufficient in every way, Pogeyan is the ideal platform for extended cruising in remote locations.

The low and wide transom steps provide a great platform for diving or boarding a dinghy. The spacious cockpit easily seats a dozen and the original Leopard helm seat has been modified for improved comfort. The galley has been upgraded with solid-surface countertops and modern all-electric appliances.

Pogeyan is configured for world-wide electrical compatibility with parallel 120 Volt and 240 Volt electrical systems, each with galvanically-isolated shore power connections. The port heads have been upgraded with electric toilets. On the starboard side, each head and the forward berth have been converted to storage.

The Leopard 47’s reliable, direct-shaft propulsion eliminates the need for sail drives. The engine rooms are huge and well-lit. Engine access is best-in-class. Unlike many cruising cats, the rudders are protected by full-length skegs. Sacrificial keels, forward collision tanks, and a strong hull are a few of the many design elements that make this one of the safest and most robust catamarans available.

Pogeyan is loaded with essential cruising gear and located in the best cruising grounds on the planet. She is well-equipped, well-maintained, and ready-to-go.
