Laurent Giles Design, bridge deck fin keel with recent Beta 35hp diesel.
A very successful design, around 300 were made between 1980 to 1983 before replacement by the Seahawk.
Famous for an unbeatable ability to cope with heavy weather, the Discus has a roomy and airy interior with teak trim and this one has a Taylors Diesel stove to keep you warm and cosy.
She has a cruising speed of 6 knots.
The Discus is regarded as a classic deep water cruiser from Westerly.
Now reduced in price and ready to go for the season.
