Westerly Griffon

This Westerly, built in 1980 and designed by Ed Dubois, has been a joy to sail and very reliable. The GRP construction with bilge keels and a transom-hung rudder makes her sturdy and easy to handle, while the tiller steering provides excellent feedback at the helm. The Beta Marine engine (new 2018) with a Gori folding propeller ensures smooth and dependable motoring. She has been thoughtfully maintained and upgraded over the years, including a new single-lever engine control (2021), Bamar genoa furling (2021), and electronics, including Simrad navigation systems and JRC radar. A sprayhood, cockpit cushions, and practical canvas gear enhance comfort and convenience. Safety is well catered for with lifebuoys and Danbuoy. This yacht is perfect for coastal cruising or exploring further afield, combining classic craftsmanship, easy handling, and reliable systems for enjoyable and stress-free sailing.” Accommodation Sleeps 5 in 2 cabinsDouble V berth in the forward cabinAmidshipos headsSaloon with port and starboard settee single berthsAft quarter berthStarboard side galley Construction Built by Westerly Yachts in 1980Designed by Ed DuboisGRP hull, deck & superstructureBilge KeelsTransom hung rudderTiller steeringEpoxy coated in 2024Yard No: H141Mechanics:Beta Marine 20hp diesel engine (NEW 2018)Single lever engine control (NEW 2021)Shaft driven3-blade propellerProp protector rope cutter (NEW 2016)Electrics:2 x 12v, 110ah battery12v, 95ah batteryCharging from the engine alternatorSolar panel chargingSolar panel charge controllerTankage:Fuel capacity 30 litresFreshwater capacity 40 litresRigging:Aluminium sparsSingle spreader mastDeck stepped mast (NEW 2021)Stainless steel standing rigging (REPLACED 2021)Bamar genoa furling system (NEW 2021)
