Fin keel version of this most revered 29ft Westerly design by Lauren Giles, the Konsort is such a versatile craft, happy to be ploughing through the heaviest of conditions with such balance control whilst others larger boats sit at home. She is equally nimble in the lighter winds due to her relatively low wetted hull.
Lloyds registered and berthed at Ardfern Yacht Centre this yacht has been sailed over the past 5 years around the Clyde and the West coast of Scotland. The yacht has been extensively upgraded by the current owner with set of new sails in 2014, upholstery renewed in 2015, new calorifier 2014, refurbished fuel tank 2017 and many more additional upgrades and improvements. She is not only a great family boat for coastal cruising, she is also a proven winner in passage races being twice class winner of Largs Regatta round Holy Race and 3 times overall winner of Round Bute Race on the Clyde. She is currently laid up at Ardfern Yacht Centre undergoing winter maintenance.
