JEANNEAU UK DEALER OF THE YEAR 2020, 2022 & 2024. HIGHFIELD DEALER OF THE YEAR 2024.
1973 Westerly Centaur 26 'Keiko II' fitted with a Volvo Penta MD2020B 3-cylinder 19hp inboard diesel engine. This well regarded cruising yacht is known for its safe, forgiving handling and strong sailing pedigree, making it an excellent choice for coastal cruising and relaxed sailing in UK waters. The Westerly Centaur is a true classic of British yacht design, offering a surprisingly spacious and practical interior for her size. Below deck she provides comfortable accommodation with a full galley, separate toilet compartment, generous locker space and good headroom throughout, making extended trips aboard both practical and enjoyable. Her cast iron bilge keels give the boat the versatility and stability that the Centaur is famous for, allowing her to take the ground safely while still delivering dependable sailing performance. Solidly built and thoughtfully designed, she remains one of the most popular cruising yachts ever produced. This particular example has clearly been loved by her current owner and has recently benefited from important maintenance, including the hull being shot blasted and re-antifouled in 2025, along with a full engine service carried out in 2025 to ensure the Volvo Penta diesel continues to run reliably. A characterful and capable cruising yacht, ready to be enjoyed by her next owner and with many more years of sailing ahead. Contact Morgan Marine today for early viewing!
