 Bought as a project 18 months ago Wellswisher has had extensive work done to it to bring it back to top specification. The boat has been modernised but keeping many of the original Westerly features. I have replaced all of the running rigging, had the sprayhood overhauled, fitted out the aft cabin, re-wired the boat, overhauled the engine, overhauled the heat exchanger, re-fitted hull fittings, and improved the interior finish.It is an adapatable cruiser with all the features and comfort of something larger. I have lived on it for 18 months and found it to be no different from living in a flat. Wellwisher is a proven sailing vessel with hundreds of miles under its keel. It has a comfortable motion due to its centre cockpit and has never let me down on my adventures around the English Channel. Wellwisher comes with lots of features such as hot and cold water, shower, TV and fridge. Using a marina isn't always essential and home conforts can be maintained. The aft cabin means guests or relatives can have a degree of privacy and the boat has 6'1" headroom in the main saloon. I am free any weekend and if sufficient notice is given, weekday viewings can be arranged.See it here: http://westerly.apolloduck.co.uk/feature.phtml?id=516896
