MANU V

MANU V is a 34.20-metre GRP planing motor yacht built by Leopard in 2010 as the Leopard 34 model, refitted in 2022. Her exterior is the work of Andrea Bacigalupo, with interiors by Rodriguez Interiors — a combination that reflects the Italian sport-yacht tradition in which Leopard operates. She flies the Maltese flag and is based in the Western Mediterranean.

Accommodating 10 guests across five cabins with a crew of five, MANU V is a compact and direct charter proposition suited to groups seeking agility and speed above all else. Her operating area is the Western Mediterranean: France, Italy, the French Riviera, Corsica, Sardinia, Monaco, and the Amalfi Coast. She is well matched to guests who want to cover ground quickly and spend time in well-known ports. Those seeking extended range, a large crew programme, or comprehensive onboard amenities will find she is intentionally focused elsewhere.

What MANU V offers above all else is performance. A maximum speed of 40 knots and a cruising speed of 31 knots place her among the fastest yachts of her size in charter service — the Leopard 34 platform was developed specifically to deliver these performance figures from a GRP planing hull. The 2022 refit has refreshed a vessel now in her second decade, ensuring that the mechanical systems match the performance expectations the hull creates. Rodriguez Interiors brings a considered approach to the relatively compact cabin volume.

The onboard provision is edited to match the vessel's character: a swimming platform for direct sea access, a Seabob, paddleboard, floating pool, and snorkelling equipment. Sunpads provide a space for recovery between runs. With a range of 500 nautical miles, MANU V is a day-charter and short-range yacht charter platform — one that rewards guests who plan anchorage-by-anchorage rather than week-long passages.

The provisional rating is based on available public data, reflecting acceptable standards across safety documentation, maintenance records, and operational protocols.
