The hull itself is in good condition with low moisture levels on a recent check.

Westerly Marine built about 250 Renowns between 1972 and 1979, the Renown being one of four models sharing the same 31 foot hull moulding. The design was by Laurent Giles, the hull showing it's obvious family similarity to the Centaur. As with the smaller Centaur, sailing performance is actually rather better than you would expect from looking at the hulls. All were solidly built, with the hulls moulded to Lloyds standards, and every hull having a Lloyds certificate.

When introduced they were regarded as medium displacement - though compared to most current yachts they are fairly heavy. Add to this a powerful diesel and you have a sensibly priced family cruiser offering very useful and flexible accommodation. "Yachting Monthly" has described them as ".... safe, steady, all-weather cruisers".

The owners use this small circular table in the saloon, although they have

the original large rectangular table which can be fitted if required.

The chart table slides out from above the port quarter berth. The GPS and echo sounder displays

are on a hinged board so can be seen from either the saloon or cockpit.

The engine is a reconditioned Volvo MD2003 of 28 hp, installed in 2022 and so far only test run ashore.
It will be commissioned and tested by the engineer who fitted it when the boat is sold.

The traffic cone at the gooseneck is to keep dirt and water off the winches and gooseneck when stored!

A traditional solid cruising yacht that needs only minor work to be back in full commission. She has a good engine, good sails and the hull is in good order with low moisture levels.
