1983 Westerly Griffon MK II for sale in UK

Description

Marketing Description Merlot – Traditional Yacht Craftsmanship - Price Reduced Step aboard Merlot, a particularly good example of the Westerly Griffon MkII. Crafted during the golden era of British yacht construction, the Griffon MkII embodies everything that made Westerly a household name among sailors: robust construction, practical design, and a commitment to quality that has stood the test of time. Built to Lloyd’s specifications, the Griffon MkII benefits from a solid GRP hull and a superior interior finish than the MKI, with rich teak joinery. Unlike many modern production yachts, where cost-cutting and light materials dominate, the Griffon was designed and built to endure. Her weight, balance, and structural integrity give confidence in heavy weather, making her not just a coastal cruiser, but a capable offshore companion. Merlot benefits from a recent upgraded engine fitted in 2021 with less than 200 hours. Above all, Merlot is a boat that feels "proper"—with a reassuring sense of solidity underfoot and a layout designed by sailors, for sailors. For those who appreciate timeless design, seaworthy performance, and a vessel built to last, the Griffon MkII is a rare gem that delivers classic sailing without compromise.
