Broker's Comments
The Westerly Pageant is a well-constructed and reliable pocket cruiser, well known for offering a comfortable sail and plenty of space for crew members.
The current owners of this lovely little boat have had her for over 30 years during which time she has been lovingly cared for and maintained.
For a relatively small boat she's not been a stranger to going to sea as the owner told me they have spent many enjoyable holidays and nights away on her: the furthest trip was sailing over to Belgium.
The owner has proof that VAT has been paid in the form of a letter from HMRC.
On the day of inspection she was clean and tidy, the upholstery appeared to be in good condition as was the headlining in the main saloon area. Some attention is required to the head lining of the forward cabin but this looks to be a simple job and easily rectified.
The owner also advised during his ownership the following has been done:
1993
Topsides Professionally resprayed
Diesel Tank replaced
Exhaust System replaced

VAT Certification received from HMRC

2005

2008

2010 Batteries replaced
2022 New Volvo shaft seal fitted
In terms of the engine this has (according to the owner) been serviced annually and winterised each year when not in use.
The boat would be ideal for someone looking to buy their first sailing cruiser, perhaps for weekends away and coastal sailing. She has the added advantage of having a bilge keel and so would be perfect for exploring shallower waters.
Despite her age she presents herself well and was a delight to inspect!
