The Westerly Corsair 36 is a definitive example of the "British cruiser" ethos of the 1980s, representing a shift toward more sophisticated design and increased internal volume for the iconic UK-based builder. Designed by Ed Dubois and produced between 1983 and 1988, the Corsair was the successor to the aging Westerly Conway. It was intended to bridge the gap between mid-range family boats and the larger blue-water yachts of the era. With its distinctive center-cockpit profile and rugged construction, it remains a staple of the used boat market for sailors seeking a sturdy, sea-kindly vessel capable of long-range coastal hops and cross-channel passages.
