With almost 2,500 examples (all bilge/twin keelers) built between 1969 and 1980, the Westerly Centaur was Westerly’s most successful model and quite possibly the most popular British production sailing boat within this size range ever built! Renowned for sailing well and being strongly built, the Centaur offers great accommodation for her size with good standing headroom.
This Westerly Centaur has clearly been well looked after, with keels recently re-bedded (2017), and recent new headlining and upholstery. A very tidy example of the class.
MOORING: the boat is currently in Norfolk, on the broads
