The most expensive little kimkeeler (i don't know what those keels are called in English) you could possibly end up with

I don know make or model, sorry. Keels like that are very common in the UK since they sit comfortably on the sand.

Do you know the length?

It looks like a Vivicity bilge keeler. Not sure of the length but looks about 20 to 22 Just a guess though.

Re: What is this boat?
Unfortunately I don't know the length. It isnt a Columbia 26, or an Albin Vega, Centaur, the others listed and I am running out of options.

Re: What is this boat?
Definitely not Columbia or any American boat I know of. It is a UK boat, I am pretty sure but I am blanking out, gotta research it...


Sure looks like a Westerly, I just don't know which one.... or...

I've looked at each of these and the Leisure 22 is too small but similar. that window in the from of the Cabin really should get someones attention. I can't find it. eve the all know GOOGLE hasn't revealed the boats identity.

Kingfisher was the last bilge keeled boat I could think of, but nope.
