EANNEAU LEADER 805 – 2002 MODEL 2003
ENGINE BLOCK REPLACED WITH A NEW ONE IN 2021
€26,000 – QUICK SALE – VERY NICE OPPORTUNITY
We are offering for sale this Jeanneau Leader 805 from 2003, a unit especially appreciated for its excellent balance between livability, onboard comfort, and sailing pleasure.
This boat mainly features a major mechanical advantage: its engine block was replaced with a new one in 2021.
Since then, the unit has continued to benefit from regular maintenance, with several major interventions recently carried out, a maintenance contract, dry winterizing, and available invoices.
The owner no longer has the time to enjoy it and is offering the boat as part of a quick sale at the price of €26,000.

NEW BATTERIES 2026
Another appreciated element: the batteries were replaced in 2026.
They are new and have a capacity of 100 Ah.
---
BOW THRUSTER
The boat is equipped with a bow thruster, particularly appreciated on a Leader 805 to facilitate docking maneuvers.
It is currently being reactivated regarding its power supply/connections or relays.
This work needs to be completed for the system to be operational for the sale.
---
COCKPIT – VERY GOOD CONDITION
The cockpit is one of the true highlights of this unit.
It offers a very convivial space with:
- Large cockpit bench
- Outdoor table
- Outdoor upholstery in excellent condition
- Aft sunbed
- Bathing platform
- Access to the sea
- Stainless steel arch
- Enclosing windshield
- Numerous storage compartments
The outdoor upholstery is remarkably well preserved for a 2002 unit.
Only the pilot seat upholstery needs to be done.
The boat also has the structure to install a bimini, but the canvas is no longer present. A new bimini can be made according to the future owner's preferences.
Currently, there is no forward sunbed, but the aft sunbed is present.

INTERIOR – LIVABLE AND VERY WELL MAINTAINED
The Leader 805 is a boat suitable for day trips, weekend outings, or short coastal cruises.
Inside:
- Main saloon
- Large bench
- Wooden table
- Storage compartments
- Interior upholstery in excellent condition
- Separate toilet compartment
- Washbasin
- Hatches providing natural light and ventilation
The interior upholstery is particularly well maintained.
The woodwork is original from 2002. It remains in good overall condition, naturally showing the patina consistent with the boat's age.
---
OPERATIONAL ELECTRIC TOILET
The toilet compartment is equipped with a fully operational electric toilet, along with a washbasin and storage.
This enables a true independent sanitary space onboard, especially appreciated for weekends and sea trips.
