The Westerly Berwick was the flagship of the Westerly range in what was arguably the company’s heyday. A bigger sister to the ubiquitous Centaur with the obvious family resemblance, the Berwick takes the best of what made the brand famous – rugged practicality and sea keeping, but her extra size adds extra space, comfort and performance to an already hugely successful formula.

“Zing Boom” is reluctantly offered for sale by her owner who has obviously taken great pride in owning her, which is reflected in her attractive presentation. A good example of a serious yacht of her age and style.
