The Leopard 27, named Saga One, is built around one simple idea, that the best part of a day at sea is spent outdoors. At twenty-seven metres she offers expansive open decks, generous cushioned areas fore and aft, and all the room a group could want to spread out and soak up the sun. There is a real sense of space aboard, the kind that lets everyone find their own corner while still sharing the day. She is engineered for pace as well as leisure, with the sort of performance that makes the coast around St Tropez feel small. Point the bow toward a distant beach or a quiet cove and she gets you there quickly, leaving more of the day for the swimming, the lounging and the long lunch at anchor. Inside, the accommodation is elegantly designed, welcoming up to nine guests overnight across the yacht, while up to twelve share the day. A crew of three keeps everything running smoothly so the experience stays effortless from start to finish. With a top speed of around thirty-one knots she has genuine reach, and snorkelling gear is aboard for anyone drawn to the water below. What defines her is the outdoor living, the way the whole boat opens toward the sun and the sea until being aboard feels like being outdoors with every comfort to hand. She is made for the long, easy day on the water. The only real question is where to drop anchor first.
