Broker's Comments

If you are looking specifically for a Westerly Centaur then you probably already know plenty about them however if you don't then have a look at the Westerly Owner's Association website where there is a wealth of information about the design and build and also current owner's forums where questions are asked and ideas are shared.

This particular Centaur is looked after for the owner by a local yard and so is regularly serviced and maintained and stored ashore each winter. She's a great family boat and can be sailed shorthanded but has room for four, above and below deck. Due to family commitments she's late back in the water this season so the sails have only just gone back on August 2015. There's still a bit of summer sailing left and this boat is ready for it
