Westerly Fulmar 32 Fin Keel – 1985 – £17,950

Well-equipped and actively maintained

1985 Westerly Fulmar 32 fin keel, designed by the renowned Ed Dubois, currently afloat and in commission at Hythe Sailing Club, Hampshire.

A well-equipped and actively maintained example of this highly regarded design, offering a proven combination of sailing performance, easy handling and cruising capability.

I have enjoyed sailing her throughout the season and am selling simply because I wish to move to a larger vessel.

Gelshield treatment completed in 2018. Hull is dry with no known osmosis.

A previously localised damp area around the rudder has been repaired. Moisture readings remain elevated in this area and this is disclosed for further investigation during survey.

• Steaming light requires investigation
  
• Anchor light requires investigation
  
• Stern-light lens is crazed/aged
  
• Raymarine depth transducer requires fitting
  
• Remaining deck areas require KiwiGrip
