First time I've heard you speak. Can't tell you how many times I've ripped my sides laughing at your memories just brilliant.

Liked the video but had to smile when the video cut to showing a Westerly Griffon on at least two occasions whilst talking about the Centaur! Or was that a Selby'ism !

It'ss not the cost of the boat that's the problem it's the price of the mooring where i live on the south coast that can easily cost more than the boat.

A very fine boat. Interior is like a Tardis.

Could you sail one of these to the Med?

[@classicsailor6762]

They draw just three feet - so they are ideal for most European canals. Several have, I think, gone to the Med, but you could find more via the very good owners' assoc' page: westerly-owners.co.uk/
