Overview
About this vessel
'Kyleina' is a fine example of the John Butler designed Westerly Cirrus. This pocket cruiser was introduced in 1968 and she proved so popular as a capable entry level cruiser that 398 were built in the 5 years she was in production. Her fin keel, inboard engine, 4 berths and turn of speed made her an ideal family cruiser. Currently ashore on her trailer, she has a pristine suit of Crusader sails, new batteries and new forestay. You will be hard pressed to find a better vessel for the money.
