Has anyone chartered this cat?  It is moving into the Conch charter fleet.  Looks like a pretty nice boat, especially for the price.

What kind of cat?  I looked at the Conch site and couldn't find boat names.  By the way, did they just overhaul their website completely?

It is a 47' R & C Leopard, it is new to the fleet and they have another one that is the same size, so that boat, in particular is not on their site.  I think this boat was in BVI Yacht Charters prior to Conch.  
 Their site is overhauled, I know it was down for awhile.

Haven't been on that particular Cat, but I can speak to the Leopard 47.  That's what we chartered our very first trip and we had a great time.
 Only complaint we had with the 47 was the fabric bimini.  Hard top is much better.  I have seen a number of 47's that have been modified though, so if it has I'd see no reason not to use it.
 
 I prefer the 46 having been on one a few times now, since it actually seems more spacious and has some nicer amenities and access to the berths but the 47 is still a great boat and likely a lot more cost effective.

Thanks Matt, we have chartered a 47' Leopard a couple of times.  Was wondering if anyone had experience with this particular boat.  According to Conch, this boat has a hard top bimini, electric toilets, 285 gallon water tank, just a few of her upgrades.

Last time I saw  Psalms 37, she was with BVI Yacht Charters. In fact, I just checked their website and she's still listed there - with a full description. |  |  |

Yes, I noticed that, I don't think the websites catch up as fast as the actual transfer.
