We are selling our Leisure 27 - Chrysalis. Asking price £10,000
Due to family commitments - both in Scotland and Australia - we must accept we can no longer give the time for sailing. We took Chrysalis ashore winter 2022 (she is at Kishorn yard where she has wintered each year since we purchased her) - we fully intended to launch her in summer 2023 however the arrival of a new grandchild in Australia, a big family wedding and other family commitments meant Chrysalis has stayed ashore.
We have realised we will have similar time constraints in coming years and have decided now is the time to offer Chrysalis for sale.
Attached is an Inventory for Chrysalis - she featured on the cover of the Leisure Owners magazine - when our son took an artistic shot at anchor at Crowlin. She has been based in Applecross for summers since we purchased her and has been sailed in and around the Applecross, Raasay, Rona, Loch Torridon area - with many rich memories of our summer trips. Each winter she has been ashore (during 2020 she also had a full year ashore due to uncertainty as to impact of Covid on launching and lift out times) - we have stored all soft cushions and curtains each winter off Chrysalis.
I can send more information - the pdf of the Inventory would not download so I have copied information below from Inventory. Please contact for additional information.
Thank you
Kerrie and Roddy.

Re: Leisure 27- Chrysalis for sale
Hello
I have added some photos of Chrysalis at anchor in various spots and at marina in Mallaig. We will add photos of her ashore next month - all soft cushions, curtains and sails currently in store for winter so she will be looking a little bare however will add photos of the galley and heads and photos of hull when we next visit west coast mid October.
I hope the attached photos and information gives a little better picture of Chrysalis - she opened up many beautiful spots on the west coast to us - however family commitments here and in Australia have made it just too difficult to give her the time she should have for sailing.
Please contact if you would like any additional information
