1981 Colvic Countess 33 This extremely rare English-built bilge-keeled boat is tough, rugged, and has been lovingly restored by her current owners.

Her rig is currently off and stored in a reliable and boat yard in St. Augustine, FL, where all of the work has been completed. Owners are replacing headliner, and she has MANY new electronics and upgrades! 5 sails (furling HeadSail, a hank on headsail, batten main, un-batten main and a storm sail) 1800 W Inverter/Charger 2016 Ampair Wind Generator 100 rebuilt 2016 Hydrovane MackPak $15,000 Custom EX2CY Enclosure Bottom stripped and barrier coated and painted 2017 All new custom interior cushions and mattresses 2016 New portlights 2016 20 Gallon separate drinking water tank Water filtration system for drinking water This is a preliminary listing--full electronics and equipment list coming soon.
