Broker's Comments

Well I have to say this boat was a revelation to me, what a nice sturdy little boat!

This Colvic 23, for sale here at Boatshed Port Solent, has that well known Colvic solidity, she is nicely finished down below, plenty of light and airy accommodation. The woodwork is just the right shade to be cosy yet bright.

OK, she is a junk rig, something that may not be familiar to all of you, but the owner tells me she is a joy to sail – and by tweaking the right pieces of string she can be made to sail backwards quite easily!

A reliable motor sailor, ideal for the trip down the Canal du Midi into the Med, a treat for a couple looking to write that travelogue!

Her engine is virtually brand new – installed just under three years ago but hardly used. Check out the spec!

Give me a ring here at Boatshed Port Solent on 07885 521960 and we can get along for a viewing!
