About this boat
Westerly Tiger 26 – Fin Keel – New Standing Rigging (2023) – Fresh Antifoul & Topsides – Yamaha 8hp Four-Stroke Available £3,250 ono (including Yamaha 8hp long-shaft four-stroke outboard) A fantastic opportunity to own a well-presented Westerly Tiger 26, a classic British-built sailing yacht renowned for its solid construction, dependable sailing performance and comfortable accommodation. This is an honest, well-maintained yacht that has benefited from significant recent investment, with much of the major maintenance already completed. She presents well both ashore and afloat and offers an excellent opportunity for anyone looking for an affordable cruiser that is ready to enjoy while still offering significant scope for personalisation. Recent Improvements Standing rigging replaced in 2023 Fresh antifoul applied (April 2026) Topsides professionally repainted (April 2026) Fixed keel Good, serviceable sails Solar charging system fitted Garmin chartplotter Two-burner gas cooker with grill Stainless steel sink and galley Upholstery and cushions included Plenty of storage throughout Engine The yacht is configured to use an outboard engine and can be supplied with a Yamaha 8hp long-shaft four-stroke outboard, mounted on a lifting bracket. The engine is well matched to the boat and provides reliable auxiliary power for manoeuvring and coastal cruising. Please note there is no inboard engine fitted. Accommodation Below deck, although attention is required as you can see from the images, the boat offers a bright and comfortable accommodation with attractive original timber joinery throughout. The spacious saloon provides generous seating around the dining table, while the practical galley includes a two-burner gas cooker with grill, stainless steel sink and useful storage. The upholstery is in relatively good condition, and the large opening hatch and coach roof windows create a light and airy interior. Forward and quarter berths provide comfortable overnight accommodation, making her ideal for weekends away or coastal cruising. The interior retains much of its original Westerly character and is usable as she is, whilst offering the opportunity for a new owner to modernise cosmetic aspects over time if desired. The boat has been enjoyed on the water and represents a genuine, usable yacht but with a chance to put your own flair and design into it and make it your own! The cabin electrics and navigation lights are currently not functioning. The solar charging system was previously working but has recently stopped charging, suggesting there may be a straightforward electrical fault. This has not been investigated and has been reflected in the asking price. Aside from this, the yacht has had recent investment in the areas that matter most, including the standing rigging, topsides and underwater hull. Why Buy This Boat? Again, finding a Westerly Tiger that has already had the standing rigging replaced and recent cosmetic work completed presents this as excellent value. The expensive maintenance has already been taken care of, leaving you with a capable, well-built cruising yacht that can be enjoyed immediately while carrying out any future improvements at your pace. Whether you're looking for your first yacht, a comfortable weekend cruiser or a classic British sailing boat with proven pedigree, this Westerly Tiger is well worth viewing. Located near Burnham-on-Crouch, Essex. Its currently on the water but viewings are welcomed and encouraged. £3,250 ono including the Yamaha 8hp long-shaft four-stroke outboard.
