Leopard 40: How to find Leopard Catamarans in the NADA

[hn0rb3]

My bank is asking me to pull up the 2011 Leopard NADA book out I'm trying to buy, but I can't find Leopards or Robertson & Caine under any of the manufactures. Does anyone know if it's listed under a different manufacturer?

Thanks for any help in advance.

NADA doesn't include most major cat manufacturers and that's somewhat of a blessing because the numbers they produce for boats are essentially just the product of a random number generator. Ask your bank if they'd take the numbers from a survey and ask your surveyor to put up a credible number. Mine was happy to add it to an existing survey he'd done a couple months before.

If you are set on buying fine. But I would encourage you to wait. The world is still afraid of its own shadow and shut down. Even when they say they are open, they are not. They still have testing and other requirements.


I keep getting emails about 40's posted on catamaransite.com
Seems to be common size

If buying through a broker ask him to give you the comps through soldboats.com

The equivalent in the marine industry is the BUC Value for the vessel. Most brokers, loan originators and insurance companies use it as at least one of their data points in valuation. Agree with the earlier comment. NADA values are almost entirely data driven and algorithmically set. Market is too thin and too poorly reported for this approach to work with accuracy.
