Owner’s Comments and Boat History


A recent insurance survey completed in July 2026 is available upon request.


This two-owner vessel has cruised extensively throughout Long Island Sound and visited Block Island, Martha’s Vineyard, Nantucket, Provincetown, Newport, Salem, Marblehead and Boston. She travelled south during the most recent cruising season and reached Florida via the Intracoastal Waterway.


Her current owners are planning a move to Spain and have reluctantly decided to part with her. Cruise-equipped and well prepared for offshore passages, Michael Leslie is ready for adventures to the Bahamas, the Mediterranean, the Panama Canal and beyond.
