Westerly Centaur

This Westerly Centaur has one double and two single berths in fore cabin, saloon and quarter berth. New Yanmar 20hp diesel in 2003. New spray hood and mainsail cover 2013. Sloop rig with furling mainsail and genoa. The sailing performance is helped by carefully designed bilge keels which are handed port and starboard with a two degree toe-in, so that once the boat heels under sail the more vertical leeward keel is developing lift to windward. Above deck, the Centaur remains popular because her deep cockpit and wide side decks serve to create a sense of safety when aboard. Another reason for the continuing popularity of Centaurs is the fact that they are a stiff, powerful boat. Whether sailing or motoring, the Centaur’s handling is always predictable.  Lying ashore at Noss Marina, Dartmouth close to our office.
