WESTERLY 33 Ketch Rig Fin Keel, built 1978, thoroughbred Ketch Rig powerful cruising yacht with accommodation for 7 in three cabins.
As you’ll see from the specification below, I have continually upgraded and improved BEESWING for safety and more pleasurable sailing.
She is potentially a go-anywhere, despite her compact 33-foot hull, which is exceptionally sea-kindly, keeping you safe in a centre cockpit in all conditions.
Equally at home cruising the Clyde, UK or further afield having completed several trips to the South of France, Norway and Shetland.
Age and health is the reason for retiring from sailing and for reluctantly selling this yacht.
Please don’t hesitate to ask if you have any questions.
