Westerly 33 Ketch | Classic British Sailing Yacht | Indigo Yachting
Indigo Yachting presents this well-equipped Westerly 33 Ketch, a highly respected bluewater cruiser renowned for its solid GRP hull, versatile ketch rig, and comfortable centre-cockpit layout. Built for long-distance cruising, this yacht is designed for reliability and safety in all conditions.
Her Perkins M30 29hp engine underwent a full overhaul in 2022, ensuring smooth and efficient performance. The ketch rig offers manageable sail handling, and the standing rigging has been checked and partially replaced in 2024. With a robust electrical system, featuring solar panels, shore power, and an inverter, she is self-sufficient for extended cruising.
Below deck, this yacht provides a warm and inviting interior with accommodations for up to six people, including a forward double berth, adaptable aft cabin, and comfortable saloon berths. The galley is well-appointed with a Neptune 4500 cooker and an Isotherm fridge, while the navigation suite includes Garmin and Raymarine electronics. Currently lying in the UK, this yacht is an excellent opportunity for a sailor seeking a proven and seaworthy cruiser.
