Broker's Comments

The Leisure 23 SL was introduced two years after the popular Leisure 23. The Leisure 23SL has an identical hull and rig to the Leisure 23 but has a different deck moulding featuring a wedge shaped coach roof and higher side decks which increased the headroom by an inch in the cabin.

Spacious inside for a boat of this size and with a good sized cockpit she would be ideal for either families or single handed use. The bilge keel provides a boat capable of navigating both inland and coastal waters and the boat has a safe and comfortable feel.

When I visited this boat I was struck by its light and spacious feel, due to the number of windows and the open space below, which also provides comfortable accommodation. With a dinette, equipped galley, separate forecabin with seatoilet and a hardly used engine.

If you have any queries or would like to organise a personal viewing, then please do contact our office and we would be happy to help.
