The LeisureCat 8000 Westerner is the latest in our range of walkaround models. Even with the larger cab there is plenty of room down either side to play the big fish right around the boat. The larger cab gives greater weather protection for crew and a lockup cuddy with plenty of stowage and an electric toilet fitted.

There is plenty of comfortable seating with under-seat stowage in the bow area and an electric anchor winch for easy retrieval.

Recommended engine power is 2x150 to 225 hp 4-stroke outboards. However, this particular craft has twin 175hp 4-stokes and. The 8000 Westerner has all the standard LeisureCat safety features.
