Broker's Comments

This Westerly Centaur is nicely presented and comes with a good inventory.
The hull topsides are gelcoat and look pretty good. The interior is also good with smart upholstery; the saloon has had the head lining redone - very nice see photos.
The sails are good and the instrumentation includes a colour chart plotter and radar. The engine is reliable and serviced every year by the owner.
These boat details are subject to contract.
