Description
Starfish is an immaculate, beautifully decorated, and a well-maintained 46´ Robertson & Caine Leopard catamaran. She comfortable sleeps eight in four cabins, all with ensuite heads with separate stand-up showers.
Built in 2008, she had a major refit in 2019. The main engines and generator engine were renewed in 2019 as well. She may be the nicest 110V Leopard 46 on the market today.
Her proud owners have suffered a health crisis within the family and their meticulously maintained vessel needs to find her new owners.
Starfish was never bare-boated. When she was with the Moorings program (which is where nearly all 4 cabin Leopards begin), she was in the fully crewed division. So no bareboat “credit card captains” were ever in charge.
In 2018, after having exited the Moorings program and after 4 years of chartering by her current owner-operators, and being 10 years old, Starfish was awarded the runner-up Best in Show trophy award for boats under 52’ at the VIPCA St Thomas Yacht Show! They did whatever was necessary to ensure that each time they went on charter 100% of every thing on board was fully functional. They spared no cost to ensure Starfish was well maintained.
As a luxury yacht, she is well equipped with premier items on board. Two rigid Paddle boards (not the cheapy inflatable ones — solid wide ones that are an ease to use), kneeboard and wakeboard.. All of which further increase Starfish's extraordinary value.
Starfish also boasts new sails, new standing rigging, 14’ center console dinghy with 40hp Yamaha, solar, high output water maker.

In the rippling embrace of South Dakota’s lakes, Captain Keith Cressman carved his aquatic narrative, a saga spun with threads of boating, fishing, and the wild dance upon waterskiing sprays. Amidst the serene reflections of the Sunfish14 and the spirited adventures atop the Hobie Cat 16, dreams swelled within him like billowing sails, whispering tales of grandeur upon the boundless seas.
An accomplished angler, his youthful gaze fixated upon Jacques Cousteau’s odysseys, kindling an aspiration to plumb the depths as a PADI Divemaster—a dream realized amidst the watery realms.
1998 heralded the commencement of a new chapter—a bareboat charter in the BVI sparking a fervent yearning for yacht ownership. A mere eighteen months hence, he stood at the helm of a Jeanneau 43DS, a sister ship mirroring the very image etched upon his fridge—an emblem of realized dreams.
His credentials unfurl like unfathomable horizons—a USCG Captain’s license in ’05 burgeoned into a Master Mariner Credential with Sailing Endorsement in ’06. The year ’21 brought the crescendo—an upgrade to a USCG
In the sanctum of luxury, he steered yacht charters in Chesapeake Bay and the Caribbean, orchestrating a symphony of maritime opulence. A stint with Paradise Yacht Management in the Virgin Islands and captaincy aboard vessels like the 34M Broward and the 32M Intermarine 2000 amplified his maritime odyssey.
Beyond the waves, hospitality beats within him—grilling and bartending are his hymns. An amateur sous chef, mixologist, and oenophile, he crafts experiences akin to fine art, bestowing guests with an unparalleled voyage.
