Fast and easily handled, GK 29s have an excellent reputation in club racing and cruising. This is a very nice example. Designed by Laurent Giles and built by Westerly in 1979 she has been well looked after and is only now for sale because of lack of use by her retired owner.
She has 5 berths in the focsle, saloon and quarter berth and has a galley with gimballed cooker and a navigation area with chart table
Standing and running rigging was replaced in 2015
