AI-generated summary

The Custom 16, known as "Little Leon," is an extraordinary and unique 4.88-metre scale replica of the Square Sail Brigantine "Leon," crafted in 2007.

Owner's Comment

Very light use and a complete rare design for fun on the water.

This is normally stored inside when not in use or enjoyed on fresh water. Completely gone through in 2018 by a former Chris-Craft builder.
