Lipari 41 in Florida?

Does anyone have a Lipari 41 in Florida? I am getting serious about catamaran buying and would love to personally look over a Lipari 41. I was hoping there would be one at the previously St. Pete and upcoming Miami boat shows, but that is not the case (There'll be lots of other cats there, I know). I live in Tampa area but could travel elsewhere if anyone would be so kind as to allow my wife and I to take a look at your boat. I've been aboard a Leopard 39 and sailed the Leopard 44. Thanks.

Did you have any luck finding a Lipari 41 ? I'm in St. Pete and would like to charter one as well. Please let me know.

Thanks,
Bill

Unfortunately... No. Apparently, there is no such beast in the state of Florida.

Cruise Abaco - Bahamas Sailboat Charter

We bareboat chartered a Lipari in Abaco months back. You can get a $400 flight from Orlando to Marsh Harbour. A quick trip over to check it out and get a nice R&R fix. Mark owns the biz and answer you up. Good people.

I have a Lipari that is being built as we speak. She will be spending some time in Ft Lauderdale probably in May. I can arrange for a tour at that time if you like.

Re: Lipari 41 in Florida?

Bill, We should compare notes. I was just down at the boat show in Miami and am actually now leaning toward a Leopard. But... I've not made up my mind yet. I'd love to get with you when possible.

Mark, Thanks so much for your offer. I will try to remember to contact you around then or, if you remember, let me know when it is complete. Once again, thank you so much for your kindness.

Re: Lipari 41 in Florida?

I just got back from the boat show as well. The 48 was there for sure! The crew of the Lipari 41 was not able to bring the boat due to bad weather in France. I am interested in the Lipari and I was disappointed by ''her'' absence at the show. I am looking for informations from someone who did some sea trial with it... So I can compare it with the Leopard 39, and the Lagoon 400...

Re: Lipari 41 in Florida?

We were at the Miami show looking at CATS too. As you may know, they are planning on having the Lipari 41 at the Annapolis Show.

An aside, we actually like the Annapolis show (Sail Weekend) MUCH better than the Miami show. They have MANY more sailboats, its all in the same marina, there's no need for a shuttle because you can walk the entire show, and we find Annapolis to be much more charming than Miami.

If you are going to Annapolis, make your lodging reservations now!

Closest place in the U.S. to see a new Lipari will be Annapolis. There are two there with the dealer.

Re: Lipari 41 in Florida?

My 2012 Lipari "Irish Rover" is being prepped in LaRochelle for her transit to Fort Lauderdale. She will be there for a couple of weeks before heading North to Annapolis. She will be available for bareboat charter through Annapolis Bay Charters this summer and at Dream Yacht's Bahama base in the winter.

If any Florida folks would like to visit her while she is in Ft Lauderdale, please email me @ IrishRoverYacht@aol.com. I can arrange to have my dealer show the boat to you.

Irish Rover is a few hundred miles off the coast of Morocco with a 5/8 ETA in Fort Lauderdale. Two weeks in town before heading north.

If there is still interest in a visit let me know

Mark
