What this video covers
Cozzy and Mitcho are searching for a replacement catamaran after selling their home to fund a new vessel.1:28 They prioritize a boat at least 40 feet long, ideally under 15 years old, featuring an upstairs galley for social interaction and a semi-raised helm station that offers 360-degree visibility without requiring the helmsman to look through cabin windows.3:51 The pair specifically targets production models like the Leopard 40 or 42, noting that their previous boat, Ocean Lady, lacked the speed necessary to maintain a comfortable pace in light-wind regions like Indonesia and Malaysia.6:17 They are currently evaluating a 2009 Leopard 40 in Thailand that features recent engine rebuilds and electrical upgrades, though they remain concerned about its narrow beam and interior headroom.9:07 The couple plans to base their search in Thailand and Malaysia to participate in the East Malaysia Rally, while balancing the purchase price against their long-term retirement investment goals.10:12
