As a number of people will already know, I am looking for a boat to replace my now sold Etap. Does anyone know any for sale in the BC? Yes Andy, I know about yours! I am looking for a bilge keeler around 28 to 34 feet. A Westerly, Moody or Colvic would be good or I will consider others. I would like an aft cabin, preferably accessed directly from the saloon.

My bank manager thinks I should sell my Westerly Griffon.... I've only just bought it! All its done under my ownership is the A34 and M4!

Why dont you try Boatshed Wales? they have a few Westerlys on their books,either them or one of the many brokers in this neck of the woods.

Could be worth looking further afield. I know boat transport by road isnt cheap but if you find the ideal boat on the south or East Coast it could be a way forward.

I sincerely hope that is a joke, I hate the thought of 'needing' to sell! Also a Griffin is a little too small for me. Allan

I will look further afield later, I just thought I should look locally first. Allan

Is that the steel boat in the corner near yours? If so I have looked and deciided it would be a little slower than most of the ones I have in mind. I would love a metal boat, steel or aluminium but they seem just that bit too slow for good passage making. Allan
