The Westerly Fulmar 32, introduced in 1980, is widely considered one of the most successful designs in the history of the British yard, Westerly Marine Construction Ltd. Designed by the late Ed Dubois, the Fulmar was tasked with replacing the legendary but aging Westerly Centaur. It represents a significant transition in the builder’s history, moving away from the heavy, purely utilitarian cruisers of the 1970s toward a more sophisticated, performanceoriented hull form. With over 400 units produced during its primary run, the Fulmar 32 carved out a reputation as a robust, "vicefree" coastal cruiser capable of handling the rigors of offshore passages, a fact bolstered by its extensive use in professional sea schools for decades.
