The Westerly Regatta 260 is a compact and easily managed cruising yacht, perfect for the shallow waters of the east coast. "Rolling Mist" is in commission for the season and is ready for her new owner to launch and sail away.  Rarely seen on the market, the Regatta 260 was the replacement for the Westerly Griffon. The current owner has fitted a furling code zero.
