Identify this Class... (Edit: Westerly Windrush)

[Mark-1]

Terrible photo but can someone identify this class?

Reminds me of a Fairy Atlanta...

Could be a 'vintage' Westerly, Windrush or 25

See what you mean about the Fairy Atlanta because of the stern section. Seems well looked after.

 

[Goldie]

Westerly 25 I think.

 

[Bobc]

Early Westerley 25

 

[Mark-1]

Yeah, Westerly Windrush (25), thanks all.

Glad I asked because it seems for decades I've been referring to Westerly 21s as Westerly 25s.

Fairey Atalanta was hot moulded strip wood construction, very light, very strong - and a total pig to repair if (when!) rot got in!

Weirdly, I've seen two in the last 14 days. I'd assumed nothing wooden would survive but turns out they're everywhere.

I remember one from years ago, with twin hydraulic lifting keels.
