Summary

Indulge in a thrilling sea adventure with the Westerly Fulmar, a true sailing gem located in Ardrossan, United Kingdom. Manufactured in 1983, this sturdy yet high-performance yacht designed by renowned Ed Dubois is, for many, the best model Westerly has ever built. Measuring 9.70 metres in length and 3.33 metres in width, this classic, fin-keel boat features a GRP hull, deck and superstructure, an aft cockpit with a tiller steering and skeg-hung rudder, and epoxy-treated hull underneath offering protection and longevity. The engine, a Lombardini LDW 903M replacement fitted in 2010, cruises at 5.5 knots, with the capability to reach speeds in excess of 6.5 knots. Complete with an electric supply and a manually pumped water system, the boat also offers an impressive accommodation layout, sleeping 7 across a forward cabin, saloon and chart table area. The galley is fully equipped with two burners, a grill and oven, while the inventory includes navigation and safety equipment, a bulkhead mounted compass, Garmin GPS, radio and CD player. Included in the sale are tools, spares, kitchenware, sleeping bags, navigational aids, pilot books and charts, primarily of Scotland. The boat has been lovingly maintained by the current owners since 2017, proving its worth in handling the delightful coast of Scotland and its pretty anchorages. Reflecting its reliability, the boat comes with a detailed service history, new engine water pump installed in 2022, and new standing rigging and guard wires fitted in 2021. This boat is ideal for any sailor keen on a hardy, well-performing boat and is for sale due to the owner's retirement.
