Broker's Comments

Price has been reduced for a limited period only. As demand picks up in the spring the asking price will revert back to £6950

Sometimes it is nice to step on board a boat that exudes simplicity. This Westerly Centaur is bright, clean and has not been messed about with. Offering good accommodation, head room and amenities, this is a good example of this ever popular boat. Being a bilge keel she is ideal for coastal waters and represents excellent value for money.

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