These yachts were also reported to have a higher-quality interior finish than most of the earlier Westerly's. As with two aft double cabins, there was no need for a fore-cabin, the forward part was split in... read more

The Westerly Centaur was the most popular British yacht ever built and it's easy to see why. The combination of performance, economy and space is legendary, whether crewed or for solo sailing.

Prior to that she was ashore for about 10 years while the current owner was working away. He has personally and regularly maintained the vessel and engine throughout his ownership. She will probably need a lift out and antifoul for the start o... read more

These ribs have a good reputation for build quality and sea-keeping ability. This boat has had one owner from new and was fitted with many extras at the time of ordering the boat. One of the most expensive upgrades was the specification of Hypalon tubes as opposed to rubber.

Since new, this boat has only been lightly used by a local Plymouth couple who have now moved out of the area and simply can't find the time to use the boat so have decided to sell her. Also, for an ac... read more
