Introducing "Mimosart," an exceptionally rare and well maintained 1977 Westsail 28 Cutter. This isn't just any used sailboat; she's a factory-finished gem, including a stunning full teak deck that exudes timeless nautical elegance. Located in Port Credit, Ontario, "Mimosart" offers a unique opportunity for discerning sailors to own a truly capable and classic cruiser. Available through Breezeway Yachts, your specialized used boat brokerage in the Greater Toronto Area [GTA], "Mimosart" is ready for decades more of memorable adventures on Lake Ontario and beyond.

A Legendary Cutter, Extensively Upgraded

The Westsail 28 is celebrated for its robust, full-keel design, renowned for its incredible offshore capability and comfortable motion in challenging seas. "Mimosart" takes this legendary foundation and elevates it with two significant refit periods (1999 and 2009).

Key upgrades and features that highlight her exceptional care include:

• Extensively Upgraded in 1999 & 2009: "Mimosart" received comprehensive retrofits, ensuring key systems and components are in top shape.
• Newer Engine: Reliable propulsion thanks to a newer engine installed during her refits.
• Newer Dodger, Bowsprit, Boomkin, Mast, Boom, and Standing Rigging (9/32 SS Wire): Critical components of her cutter rig have been replaced and updated, ensuring peak performance and safety for any voyage.
• Immaculate Exterior Refinishing: The Awlgrip on the hull and deck house was expertly redone in 1999, providing a durable and gleaming finish. The cabin top fiberglass/gelcoat was renewed in 2010, and the bottom was epoxy barrier coated in 2003, offering excellent protection against osmosis.
• Full Teak Deck: A classic and highly desirable feature that not only adds to her beauty but provides exceptional grip and comfort underfoot.
