The Westerly Berwick is a proven, spacious family sailing cruiser. With a long waterline length, they give a good turn of speed, together with good stability. Orissa is the ketch rigged version and has been well upgraded and restored in her current tenure, including recent sails, standing rigging, electronics and full upgrade on the 12 volt system, plus much more!
