Levi Corsair

Description

2003 Levi Corsair with twin 230 hp Volvo Penta KAD43/DP diesel engines giving 40+ knots maximum speed (cruising with ease at 30 / 35nots). No expense has been spared on a continuous programme of upgrades & maintenance, by its current owners of 17 years, who have regularly cruised down to the West Country, Channel Islands & Southern Brittany. In addition to the engines / stern drives being fully serviced on a regular basis, both engines were stripped down & rebuilt in 2012. Other recent upgrades include the hull being sprayed with Awlgrip (2014), new cabin / cockpit upholstery & seats (2017 / 18), fridge (2018) & DSC VHF radio (2019). A unique opportunity to acquire the first of one of these relaunched express cruisers, renowned for their classic Renato “Sonny” Levi lines, world famous race-bred deep-V hulls & superb sea keeping qualities. Must be seen & taken out on a sea trial to be fully appreciated. Swinging mooring on the stunningly beautiful Beaulieu River transferable on request.
