Built during the early 1980s by UK-based Cobramold Ltd., this Frank Pryor-designed sailboat represents a practical approach to coastal cruising with its distinctive twin keel configuration. The twin keel design allows the boat to sit upright when dried out, making it ideal for exploring tidal waters and shallow anchorages where conventional deep-keel boats cannot venture. With a masthead sloop rig and fiberglass construction, the Leisure 29 offers straightforward sailing characteristics suited to family cruising and weekend adventures. The substantial displacement of 7,496 pounds, combined with 3,366 pounds of ballast, provides good stability and a comfortable motion in moderate seas. Her beam of just over 9 feet creates reasonable interior space while maintaining manageable sailing characteristics for smaller crews. The boat's comfort ratio of 22.9 indicates a motion that favors stability over speed, while the capsize screening formula of 1.89 suggests reasonable stability for coastal waters. With only 30 hulls produced during the brief 1979-1982 production run, the Leisure 29 remains a relatively rare sight on the water. The modest 7.5 horsepower auxiliary engine provides adequate power for maneuvering in harbors and calms, reflecting the boat's emphasis on practical, economical cruising rather than high performance.
