Broker's Comments
The Westerly Chieftain is a centre cockpit, twin keel, sloop-rigged sailing cruiser and has the same hull as the Centaur from which boat it was developed.
She is a popular bilge keel choice and perfect for cruising.
Inside she is clean and well maintained and offers accommodation for 5 people, a galley, a dining area, plenty of storage and a head with pull-out basin.
On deck the boat offers a safe cockpit area with wheel steering and access to the aft cabin.
Included in the sale is an inflatable dinghy and Mariner outboard engine.
The engine was last serviced during April 2024 and the boat was last lifted, re-antifouled and new anodes fitted during May 2023.
