Excellent talk through, though you might've explored the saloon lockerage under and behind the seating a bit more. Westerly made some straightforward, practical boats with a good standard of finish down below. At £33,000 I think it's a tad over-priced as there are jobs that need addressing - like solar panels - that should've been dealt with by the owner. So far as I'm concerned, if anything needs doing to a boat that's for sale then it's a `project' boat. Thanks for sharing...
I’m not sure if there’s a perfect sailboat. But, I think this is as close as can be found! Probably my favorite production sailboat that I’m currently aware of. Heavy enough for comfort. Fast enough (from what I’ve heard) to not feel sluggish. I’d add a davit for solar panels as much as a tender. Add a water maker and I’d disappear for awhile. 🤓 thank you so much much for sharing this. Greetings from Maine/USA.
The headlining is a big job. There is foam in between the lining and the fiberglas and it needs to be taken off completely. A real mess. Also there are some leaks as you can see in the drawer and on the bulkhead. I think it's far to expensive.
