S/V Rainbow Safari is a Nadi, Fiji based 2018 Leopard 45 Catamaran For Sale By Owner. This catamaran owner requires financial settlement only. No trades.
This award-winning Leopard 45 sailing catamaran is a highly sought-after owner’s version built in 2018. Meticulously maintained to highest standards by its first and only owner, Rainbow Safari has been upgraded for long-distance, self-sustained bluewater cruising. As a family home and watersports platform, she provides stunning 360 views, maximum living comfort and safety at sea, while the extended sail plan makes her an efficient sailing cruiser.
Initially launched in Singapore and flagged in Langkawi, Malaysia, Rainbow Safari has extensively cruised Southeast Asia and the South Pacific islands, and includes a treasure trove of anchorages, waypoints, and routes for these regions.
She is available for duty-free handover from 1 November 2025 in Fiji, an ideal base both for beginning cruisers who can explore the many beautiful islands of Fiji without heading offshore, or for those who want to head further afield across the South Pacific, Oceania, Asia, and beyond.
