A luxurious day cruiser brimming with delightful surprises, the Leader 12.5 maximizes every inch for an opulent experience. Despite its generous size, designers have optimized each square meter/foot, creating an exceptionally comfortable boat with a versatile layout that suits various purposes.
The upper deck boasts a multi-functional setup, featuring a forward sundeck that cleverly transforms into a spacious saloon. It includes elevated triple chaise lounge seating and a bench with a removable table, all overlooking the anchor locker. On the port side, an electric drop-down terrace extends the cockpit's width, offering easy access to the water.
Below deck, the owner's cabin amidships offers a double berth and a single berth that can combine into a sprawling king-size berth. The fully equipped galley features a ceramic cooktop, fridge, optional microwave, and ample storage. Additionally, the forward salon seating can transform into an extra king-sized berth, adding versatility to the interior layout.

THE HULL
The Leader 12.5 features a new and unique hull with infusion high-end technology. Stringers and the hull are molded into one piece providing more fiberglass and less resin. With 21 degrees of deadrise at the transom, the deep-V hull design has a sharp entry, two lifting strakes, and a spray-reducing chine that extends the full length of the hull, providing predictable handling and exceptional comfort across a wide range of conditions.
MAIN DECK
Twin cockpits on the main deck, ahead and behind the hardtop-protected helm console, offer flexible seating, sunning and dining options for those who prize a life afloat in open-air surroundings. A wide walk-around deck to port leads to the forward cockpit, which offers raised triple chaise lounge seating facing forward with additional bench seating in the bow. Options like a portable table and filler cushion reimagine the forward cockpit as a private sun pad.
When climbing aboard there is easy access via the starboard side entry door. The aft cockpit is packed with imaginative features, including a roomy L-shaped lounge with an aft seatback that folds aft to form a comfy sun pad, and with a fiberglass table on removable legs. Engage a switch to reveal the electric drop-down terrace to port, increasing the entertaining space. An optional remote-controlled SureShade sun-awning can be added for full protection from the sun.
The entertainment island backs up to the helm seating. Here you have a full cockpit galley with room for outdoor food prep including a working countertop with an electric grill, two sinks (optional or livewell), a 13-gallon fridge, and loads of storage for kitchenware. To adapt to your boating needs, there are options for a second 13-gallon fridge or an ice maker.
LOWER DECK
Down below, the Leader 12.5 interior is cooled by the 12,000 + 8,000 BTU Air Conditioning, allowing for overnights aboard. The fully equipped galley is complete with a ceramic cooktop, fridge, optional microwave, plus storage. Forward the salon seating transforms to a king-size bed while amidships owner’s cabin also has a filler cushion to create a full-sized king bed. To starboard, there is a spacious enclosed head.
ENGINE POWER
Triple 4.2-liter, 300-horsepower Yamaha V6 four-stroke outboards, chosen for their compactness, lightweight and powerful output, are the standard, optimal engine package on the new Leader 12.5 WA, offering a range of cruising speeds from 30 mph to 35 mph, and can reach a top-end speed of 50 mph when conditions allow — without the need for hull steps.
