Broker's Comments

The Westerly Merlin is a contemporary-styled yacht with spacious accommodation and good performance, with the Westerly's renowned solid quality built to Lloyds standards.

Down below the accommodation is comfortable; with 6 berths, two being in the separate forward cabin and with a separate aft double cabin and spacious separate heads. The saloon and galley are roomy, perfect places for relaxing on the boat and enjoying meals afloat.

This example has been well maintained and benefits from a more recent engine, fully refurbished sails and also a 2022 survey is available, with all recommendations completed and with a dinghy and outboard included.

If you are looking for a spacious, sailing cruiser that presents with good specification then this boat should be considered. If you would like more information please contact our office and we would also be pleased to organise a personal viewing.

These boat details are subject to contract.
Note: Offers on the asking price may be considered.
