Because the Wiki is an open (public) resource anyone may contribute or edit it however you do need to register your email address (using real names please) and log in to contribute (anonymous access is not supported). You can contact the Wiki Sysop by email at westerlywiki@westerly-owners.co.uk
Westerly Yachts
Westerly Marine Construction Ltd (often referred to as just "Westerly") was founded in the early 60's by Commander Denys Rayner. For many years the company was the largest producer of yachts in the United Kingdom until 2000 when production ceased.
The yachts were constructed at Waterlooville near Portsmouth on the Solent. Many were constructed to Lloyds 100A1 standard and Westerly established a reputation for their strength of build.
Westerly used the best designers of the day including Jack Laurent Giles, Ed Dubois, Ian Proctor , Ron Holland and John Butler.

Useful Resources
Guidance for Contributors
This is an open Wiki so anyone can contribute. Please open an account and log in using your real name. The syntax is simple so with a little reading through the FAQs below any one can enter material. Contributors should endeavour to review the best available information on a topic and submit a digest of that information to the Wiki. Prime sources of information will include personal experience (preferred), magazines, the WOA Web site and discussion groups such as WOA and Yahoo. Material should not be lifted verbatim rather a digested version should be presented in the Wiki. There are generally several alternatives approaches or opinions about any task and Wiki contributors should endeavour to identify these alternatives and provide hooks (follow on pages)to the alternatives even if the information is not available to the original contributor. Someone else can later add that information. Reprints of chatty PBO type articles are not recommended because this is not Wiki style and the "How I did it" article which is suitable for a magazine is generally just one view and the Wiki needs to recognise alternates. You should also add a Resources section where applicable providing links to suppliers web sites and a References section listing sources of material used in the compilation of the section.
