A 2018 Leopard 50 underwent an extensive electrical and systems refit in St. Petersburg, Florida, to enable off-grid, long-term cruising.1:01 The project replaced the factory propane galley with a Bosch induction cooktop and microwave, powered by a 48-volt system featuring 600 amp-hours of battery capacity and a 10,000-watt inverter.4:57 Solar generation includes six 550-watt bifacial panels on a custom arch and four additional panels on the coach roof, totaling 3.3 kilowatts.1:41 Charging redundancy is provided by dual Arco Zeus alternators and regulators, which communicate with a Victron Lynx Distributor and battery management system.2:52 Navigation and monitoring upgrades include a 16-inch chart plotter, 3D sonar, a masthead camera, and a FLIR thermal imaging system.3:55 Tank levels for water and waste are monitored via Safiri micro-radar sensors, which provide precise volume data rather than simple full-or-empty indicators.9:37 The installation also incorporates a vented Splendide washer-dryer and a hull-mounted ultrasonic growth-prevention system.8:02
