Jubilee is one of the nicest 4 cabin Leopard 48's to come to market in 2025. Her original owner purchased her from Belize before she could even go into bareboat charter. He then sailed her to Fort Lauderdale for upgrades before placing her into private charter with a full time captain and crew. She was unscathed during the recent hurricanes on Florida's Gulf Coast.
After his term of ownership, she has been privately cruised on the East Coast and the Islands and is well maintained. She is ready for her next owners to take her cruising in the islands once again.

Build Quality: Solid fiberglass hull construction and quality fittings contribute to durability and ease of maintenance.
Cons

Other Information about Catamaran Central
The catamaran brokerage and charter business has seen very little, if any change since the 1990's. Marketing, the sales process, and the customer experience has not seen any of the modernization that we've grown accustomed to in our daily lives. Catamaran Central was born out of the desire to create a more interactive yacht sales and charter webpage that is full of more informative and engaging content not found on other sites.
