Cozzy and Mitcho sell their Perth home of 30 years and fly to Phuket to inspect a 2009 Leopard 40 owner's version — a three-cabin catamaran they have made an accepted offer on, subject to viewing.10:47 The boat is listed as turnkey but a pre-sale report flagged significant electrical work done by an unqualified installer, plumbing throughout the heads and sinks needing full replacement, and rigging due for renewal.15:07 The boat carries 2.75 kilowatts of solar across six large panels, roughly 1,600 amp-hours of battery, two air conditioners, and induction-only cooking after all gas was removed.17:18 A one-year-old Highfield dinghy is included.16:48 Mitcho notes the three-cabin Leopard 40 commands roughly $50,000 AUD more on the secondhand market than the two-cabin version, making the asking price unusually competitive.15:37 Two scenarios are outlined: fall in love, pay a deposit, and sail the boat to Langkawi for a shakedown before returning to Malaysia for refit work; or walk away and keep searching.18:31 The video also covers their final days in Bima, Indonesia — attending the traditional bareback horse racing event known as mainjarane — and a week of island hopping with patrons Kathy and Steve.7:41 Negotiating a turnkey listing gives buyers leverage to demand repairs or extract equivalent price reductions before settlement.13:43
