Remarks:
An exceptionally well presented Leisure 20 which benefits from having had many optional extras installed at the time of build and has been constantly updated and improved by the current owners of some 15 years. With a very active owner’s association (in which the current owners actively participate), the Leisure 20 is a popular choice for both inland and coastal sailers, with ample space for a couple and children or spacious accommodation for two. This example is now sadly for sale due to the purchase of a motor cruiser. A great little pocket cruiser!
A quick sale is desired and sensible offers will be considered.
