A 2012 Leopard 39 PC built for easy, efficient miles under power — now offered as M/Y Island Paws.
The Leopard 39 Powercat has earned a loyal following among owners who want the stability and space of a catamaran without the rigging of a sailing multihull. M/Y Island Paws, a 2012 example listed by Michelle Ropiza, brings that recipe to market with the poise the model is known for — a wide, walk-around deck plan, a bright saloon that flows to the aft cockpit, and the kind of shallow-draft, twin-engine layout that opens up thin-water cruising grounds from the Bahamas to the Sea of Cortez.
Layout and Livability
At 39 feet, the Leopard 39 PC punches above its weight in interior volume. The saloon and galley sit on a single level with the cockpit, encouraging that seamless indoor-outdoor rhythm long-range cruisers value. Twin hulls house private cabins and heads, giving guests genuine separation — a feature that makes the 39 PC as workable for a couple as it is for a family charter week.
A Thin Slice of the Market
The Leopard 39 PC is a scarce model on the brokerage market, and that scarcity shapes value. At the moment, YachtSite tracks just a single active Leopard 39 PC listing, and buyer interest has held steady month over month.

Who She Suits
Buyers drawn to Island Paws tend to be step-up cruisers — sailors trading in the winches for twin diesels, or monohull owners who want more deck real estate and a level ride at anchor. The 39 PC delivers on both counts, and this 2012 hull offers a turnkey path into the class.
