Broker's Comments

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

This example is in very good condition, having been diligently maintained by the current owner. The rig is set-up for ease of handling and the machinery provides ample power for maneuvering under engine. The exterior and interior are in very good condition and the accommodation offers spacious comfort.

The yacht is in commission and would be suitable for a range of uses, including shallow waters, family / group sailing and coastal passage making. When I visited the boat I was impressed by its overall upkeep, condition and comfortable accommodation.
