---------------------
Nautilus Yacht Management is proud to present this immaculately presented example of the highly sought-after Westerly Trintella Ocean 43.
The Westerly Ocean 43 Trintella built, is well known around the world for being a safe, seaworthy and incredibly spacious cruising yacht built to Lloyd Standards and with quality, durability and attention to detail in mind. Westerly prioritized Lloyd's requirements from the initial design stages, ensuring robust hull construction and thorough review processes. Westerly Trintella Ocean 43 are also CE Certified. Specifically, it's categorised as Design Category 'A', meaning it is designed for extended offshore passages where conditions can exceed Beaufort Force 8.
The Westerly Ocean 43 is a centre-cockpit, blue water cruiser designed by Ron Holland. It is known for its spacious accommodation and excellent sailing performance, making it suitable for long voyages and comfortable family cruising.
The design is faultless, with a centre cockpit that is well proportioned and not too deep, as many other centre-cockpit designs can sometimes make one feel as if sitting in a bathtub. A stunning dodger with clears and reinforced glass windscreen offers protection from the weather while allowing perfect visibility.
To add to the comfort in cold weather, side panels can be added on all three sides.
All lines are run aft for safe and easy sailing solo or short-handed, which her owners have often demonstrated, sailing all the way from the UK to New Zealand and now located in Fiji. After 20,000 nautical miles and almost 3 years on the ocean, they can vouch for the comfort, strength and safety that Coral Moon has never failed to provide no matter the weather conditions. Being their home and their pride and joy, they have continually upgraded Coral Moon and never failed to give her the care and attention to detail she deserves.
Currently situated in beautiful Fiji, and with almost 2 years remaining on her cruising permit, she would make the ideal new home for someone wishing to spend some time exploring its 350 paradise islands and get their sea legs before venturing further afield. Coral Moon’s owners are on board and welcome you for an inspection of video tour if you wish. They will remain on board until sold and will be available to assist you with a detailed handover, where they can spend time with you to explain how everything works on board, so you feel comfortable beginning your journey.
For a bit of info about Nautilus Yacht Management, we are a boutique-style brokerage devoted to high quality cruising yachts and to the cruising community since our launch in Sydney, Australia in 2011.
With several offshore branches from French Polynesia to Fiji, New Zealand and Australia to assist cruisers along South Pacific route, we are here to help both sellers and buyers with the logistics involved from registration to insurance, delivery, import, survey, storage and crewing if required. Ex- cruisers ourselves we just strive to help others begin their journey on the ocean.
Get in touch! Our team can organise a private video viewing, discuss the purchase process with you as well as answer your questions, put you in touch with the owners if you wish, assist with organising your visit, purchase, delivery home if needed, insurance, berthing, crewing, etc.
A Word From The Owners:
"We purchased Coral Moon in July 2022, in Hamble, UK.
She is a Westerly Ocean 43, however, she is hull # 18 of this model where the hull mould was shipped to The Netherlands to be built entirely by Trintella. The Trintella name is world renowned and our initial viewing showed an ideal vessel for our offshore plan. She is a sturdy, solid boat with a deep centre cockpit. For a 43 ft boat she is surpringly spacious.
We realised that there was fair amount of updating needed, the previous owner had only sailed her off the English coast and over to France, so very different from the sailing that we were planning.
Coral Moon is easily managed with the rig configuration, all lines coming into the cockpit, single line reefing and an electric winch for the main halyard.
Since leaving the UK, we have sailed across the Atlantic and explored the Caribbean islands. We made the transit through the Panama Canal on 29th February 2024 and headed out into the glorious world of the Pacific and its beautiful islands.
We arrived in New Zealand in November 2024, whilst there we carried out upgrades and maintenance to keep her ocean ready.
Though we would love to do this for many years, it is time for us to go back to our life in Europe. She is turnkey ready to continue blue water cruising, ideal for a couple or a solo sailor." Mark & Donna, Fiji, July 2025
