1978 Westerly 33 for Sale – 33 ft – Preveza, Greece

BROKER’S REMARKS

This Westerly 33 Aft Cabin offers a solid, practical cruising solution for those who value dependable build quality and well-thought-out accommodation. Designed by Laurent Giles and built by Westerly Marine, she features the classic centre cockpit and aft cabin layout, ideal for privacy and extended stays aboard. Her bilge keels make her particularly suitable for drying moorings and exploring tidal waters, while her shallow draft opens up a range of cruising grounds. The yacht benefits from recent rigging upgrades (2024), a reliable Mitsubishi engine with regular servicing, and the hull has been freshly recoated  in 2024. With accommodation for six, a protected cockpit, and good navigation and safety equipment, this is a capable and reassuring choice for island-hopping and family cruising. A sensible option for those wanting a straightforward, well-maintained yacht that’s ready to enjoy straight away.
