Broker's Comments

The Leisure 27 is a popular cruising yacht and was designed with over 6' of headroom throughout and a wide beam to provide excellent accommodation space in a small, sturdy cruising yacht.

This twin keel version of the Leisure 27, is perfect for exploring the East Coast and suitable for a range of uses, including shallow waters, family / group sailing and coastal passage making.

This version has had only two owners from new with a unique fit out, providing excellent galley and saloon space. The boat is in need of some superficial tidying and updating in places, which is reflected in the sale price. This boat is therefore a great opportunity to purchase a well regarded cruiser, at a competitive price.

These boat details are subject to contract.
Note: Offers on the asking price may be considered.
