Marketing Description The Griffon was released to the yachting public as the new and improved Centaur. Designed by Ed Dubois, she was a bit of a pocket rocket and in the right hands has a good turn of speed.

The Westerly Griffon is a 26ft (7.9m) 6 berth, 2 cabin GRP sailing sloop, designed by Ed Dubois as a more modern, better-performing replacement for the older Westerly Centaur design.

The Mk II has a better appointed quality interior with a very useful central table, as well as the bigger 20hp BUKH engine and a taller more efficient rig. The only possible reason to buy a Mk1 is that there are no MkIIs available! The Griiffon is an excellent cruising boat. It is an optimum size for sea going capabi... read more
