Broker's Comments

Boatshed Wales is pleased to offer for sale this Macwester Wight 32 MKII, built in 1975. Like many boats of this era, it boasts a solid fiberglass construction. The boat features a ketch rig with a deep center cockpit, providing excellent shelter and safety.

The aft cabin includes a spacious double berth, accessible from the cockpit. In the main accommodation area, you'll find a linear galley to port, equipped with a sink, fridge, twin gas cooker, and microwave. The gas system was upgraded and certified in 2018 to meet survey recommendations.

Additional features include an electric head to port, a washbasin opposite, and a standard forepeak V-berth in the bow. The boat comes with a 2.5hp (2017) Suzuki and an inflatable Bombardier dinghy with wheels.

Currently ashore for winter storage, the boat is easily accessible for inspection. If you're in the market for a traditional ketch-rigged cruiser with grounding capability, this vessel is worth your consideration. We welcome all inquiries and viewing requests.
