Yacht - 1972 Westerly Centaur (Bilge Keel) - (*refurbished*)

** COMPLETELY REFURBISHED AND NOW READY FOR HER NEW OWNERS FINISHES ** This well known Westerly Centaur is renowned for their robustness, deep cockpit, seaworthiness, safe bilge keels and are surprisingly roomy space with very good headroom. Many owners who buy them as starter boats, never bother to change them as they are well known excellent all-rounder’s that have stood the test of time with 2500+ having been built this surely proves their popularity & excellent value for money! When her owners bought this model in Lake Windermere, while only being used in Fresh Water which is a rare find (some 5+ years ago), they were swayed by the lovely painted wooden interior of this particular example. Importantly she is very dry, clean & tidy down below. Her existing engine has also been removed & re-conditioned in June/July 2019 & runs very well.

If this is off interest we can of course discuss it all, when you come to see her for the first time, which our previous clients/purchasers have found very useful to date with 'ironing out' small issues after they have left the yard by sea or road...
