WESTERLY CENTAUR 26
Westerly Centaur - Basic Information.
The Westerly Centaur was designed in 1968 by Jack Laurent Giles as a more modern and roomier replacement for the existing Westerly 25. With over 2,000 models built, the Centaur is Westerly's most produced boat and one of the earliest mass produced GRP boats on the market. Like many of the early production Westerly boats, it has a reputation of being a sturdy, but simple cruiser. With a 6ft standing headroom through out, it has a much more spacious interior than most boats of it's day.
The twin bilge keels allow the boat to sit up right when the tide goes out and give the boat a shallow draft. Looking at a roomy boat with good headroom and a powerful diesel makes many people regard Centaurs as motor-sailers. They are not - they actually sail very well, although as bilge-keelers they are always going to be slower to windward than similar sized fin-keelers.
Above deck, the Centaur remains popular because her deep cockpit and wide side decks serve to create a sense of safety when aboard. Another reason for the continuing popularity of Centaurs is the fact that they are a stiff, powerful boat. Whether sailing or motoring, the Centaur's handling is always predictable.
'Lucky Luke' - built 1977.
Lucky Luke is a sloop-rigged Centaur with the commonly found 'B' layout, which provides up to six berths in two cabins, and ample stowage space. The B version replaces the original 'A' layout with dinette to port, with an L- shapped sette and saloon table which, like the A version, converts to a double. The galley area is to Starboard and is equipped with a Techimpex 2-burner gas stove with oven & grill and a stainless Steel Sink with cold water supply.
The seperate heads compartment, with sea-toilet, is situated to Port, with wash-hand basin & vanity unit opposite.
The forepeak has a Vee-shaped berth with infill cushion to produce a double berth.
