1995 Westerly Oceanlord with replacement engine, Volvo Penta D2 40 with just 10 hours on the clock. EU VAT paid.
The Westerly Oceanlord 41 epitomises the Westerly Yachts signature blend of durability, practicality, and classic styling, and is designed for comfort, safety and long-distance passage making.
“Smile” is a centre-cockpit cruising yacht renowned for her robust British build quality, constructed to Lloyd’s Hull Construction standards, and genuine offshore capability.
Designed by Ed Dubois, the yacht combines excellent sailing performance with a forgiving nature, making it a natural choice for seasoned blue-water cruisers, and has a long proven history of being easily handled with just two people, whether crossing the Altantic, a circumnavigation, or just coastal cruising.
The boat can accommodate up to six people in three separate cabins, plus two more in the saloon if needed, with two heads. The boat has ample storage space, 450 litres of water capacity and fantastic headroom throughout.
Being one of the last 15 Oceanlords built by Westerly, this example has the updated layout, with the aft cabin featuring a central island double berth, with a 2025 memory foam mattress. The cabin also has a dressing table, a hanging locker, drawers and shelves. There are two deep lockers either side of the central bed, one of which features a safe. The aft en suite head has a marine toilet, a sink and a shower.
The saloon has a u-shaped settee to port that can convert into a double berth if needed, and a two individual comfortable armchairs to starboard, with a handy drinks cabinet in between. Large saloon teak table with cherry inlay on the two folding leaves, can comfortably seat six (or more if you are friendly)
Forward cabin has a large V-shaped double berth, with central infill, a hanging locker, drawers and shelves. A comfortable private cabin space for family or visiting crew, with the benefit of the midships head and shower next door.
