This boat gives great first impressions - upon approach, she seems looked after and nice and tidy. Down below, her typical Westerly accommodation is inviting and appears warm and cosy due to the use of wood, despite the great light provided by the hatches and port lights. There is plenty of room and the accommodation is well thought out. All in all, this seems a good example of this classic, solid weekender that should look after any couple of family and take them where they want to go in dependable style.

If you are looking for a 26 footer that you can race, that will fulfil its role as a pocket family cruiser and come at a very reasonable price then take a look at the Trapper 300. With it s wide beam, flared topsides and deep keel, it s been said that they are fast to windward and not slow off the wind either. This example benefits from the longer racing keel, 2010 standing rigging and a freshly scrubbed hull. Lines lead aft to cockpit and the deck is painted in blue non slip. A PBO review once stated that these boats are light on the helm and delightfully responsive; one of the few boats ... read more

The Westerly Fulmar is a well designed, versatile cruiser and has been enjoyed by her current owners for the past 15 years. It s a nice looking boat with an airy spacious feel to the saloon that also provides comfortable additional berths. The port side seating is hinged and folds down to create a good sized berth, the seating backs on both sides are removable to expand the width further. (see photo) The decks, running rigging and sails all appear to be in good condition as is the interior of the boat. I particularly like the nice detail of good condition teak in the cockpit. The current... read more

This looks to be a good example of this type of boat - upon approach, she seems clean and tidy and is very easy on the eye. Once on board, you immediately notice the deep, safe and protected cockpit and you have a choice of accommodation - forward, main or aft, all with better than expected headroom. The after cabin is much larger than most boats of this type and is more than the usual cupboard-sized compartment, offering two genuine berths, plus stowage. The forward accommodation offers two full single or a double berth conversion with masses of stowage and locker space - this boat could easi... read more

This boat was built by Tosca Marine in Cape Town and the previous owner took 10 years to fit her out to their specification. The interior is fitted out with exotic woods such as Jacaranda to a high standard as he was a master carpenter. She was launched in 2005 and they were due to sail around the world. She was only sailed twice and due to personal circumstances was then taken out of the water until the current owner purchased her in 2010. They bought the boat when it was in Durban South Africa and they completed works that the previous owner was unable to finish. They sailed to Cape Town w... read more

It is nice to step aboard a boat where everything is in the right place, looks maintained, and looks in order. This is one such boat. Rather lightly used, and with a great spec, this boat could take you around the Baleares, and very much further. Slab - reefed main, cabin heating, nearly new outboard (one hour only run!), and a nice tender. These and many more features add up to a splendid package. Delphia have been making fine yachts since 1990, and have now built over 25,000 boats, for themselves, and other quality brands. The boat comes with berthing until the end of July, in a very desir... read more

The galley is spacious, as is the heads, complete with shower and the engine and tankage sited amidships, giving a well-balanced boat. When I visited this boat I was impressed by its attractive interior woodwork throughout, headroom, accommodation and living space and the sailing and passage making characterist... read more
