Broker's Comments

There were 2444 of these made, so I expect you’ll all be fairly familiar with the breed! The single most successful yacht Westerly ever made!

This one is an early one – 1971 – so she has the “A” layout, with the galley on the starboard side and 6 berths.

She benefits from having had a new engine fitted in 2003, and she has hardly been used since then.

Her keels were restructured in 1998, so as far as I can tell she is all up together and ready to go.

Give me a ring here at Boatshed Port Solent and we’ll get along and see her. It’s best if you can give me a few days notice as she is out on a drying mooring, so we have to get the tide right!
