The Pageant was designed for Westerly by Laurent Giles
in 1969, as a replacement for the earlier Nomad. Production
ran from 1970 to 1979, the yacht shown in the photographs
here being one of the last of the 550 or so built. A very
few (reportedly just six) fin-keel versions were also produced
in 1976, these being called Westerly Kendals. As with all
other Westerly Marine yachts the Pageant was very strongly
built to Lloyds specifications, which meant that the building
processes were rigorously monitored and all materials had
to be approved by Lloyds in order that a hull certificate
could be issued. |
