Description
The Westerly Griffon was built to replace the hugely successful Centaur and offers an excellent combination of capable cruising performance (much improved from the Centaur), great handling, and superb accommodation for their size. 'Etherea of Hamble' is well set up for shorthanded sailing and twin bilge keels make her ideal for East coast cruising.
