When Westerly decided to develop a new image they had Ed Dubois design this boat, a fast, easy to handle, family cruiser that will win races. The inside of KHENSU is as lovely as can be with traditional teak and holly sole and blue cushions. She has proven to be stiff up wind and steady down wind. The spade rudder and fin keel are the secret to her performance. The ballast to displacement ratio is 42.53%. That's good! When we say she is well balanced, it means you do not have to fight the tiller, no heavy helm. There were 435 of the Fulmar's built over 11 years. Most of them are still in the UK. Here is your chance to own this very proper British yacht. Owner wants bigger racer!
