The LeisureCat 9000 Hardtop (LOA 9.95m / 32'6") has been chosen by many Police and Sea Rescue groups for its ability to handle tough conditions. LeisureCat Patrol craft can be customized to suit the individual requirements of the client. As can be seen here, a firefighting unit has been included in this craft built for the Jurien Bay Sea Rescue Group in Western Australia, home to a fleet of fishing and crayfishing boats as well as a fleet of recreational fishermen. Side cockpit doors can be incorporated in all models to allow ease of diver access or recovery from the water. There is a standard access door in the transom leading to a swim platform with dive ladder. The 9000 can be fitted with either inboard/stern-leg or outboard engines. However, the latest outboards have proven to be the engine of choice for their safety, lightness and ease of maintenance.

Brainard Cooper has ben sailing Snipes since 1951. He got his introduction to Snipe sailing from Harold Gilreath and he's been in the class ever since. He counts among his close friends, people he met sailing Snipes in the early 50's. Brainard saw the transition from wood to glass boats. It wasn't an overnight transition but it was clear what direction the class would take when Lofland started building a low cost fiberglass production boat that required very little maintenance. He tells a few stories as only he can and gives us reason to value the history of the Snipe Class and those who made it such a strong class.
