For sale is Luminosity, an excellent example of a 1980 Westerly Griffon Mk1 with bilge keels. She is now ashore in Portsmouth.
I have owned her for an excellent year cruising the solent and beyond, however unfortunately my circumstances have changed and I am therefore reluctantly selling her. She is a fantastic cruiser who sails well and is spacious below deck. Luminosity is in great condition with full history from new and only requires anti-fouling before cruising next season.
