    Hi All!

    For Sale Colvic Watson: £8000 - Located Portsmouth (UK)  

    As we are planning to leave the UK and my poor health has limited our sailing we are reluctantly selling Bobtail, our 1979 24ft Colvic Watson (bilge keel) which was converted to a junk rig in 2011… see my blog http://junkrigbobtail.blogspot.co.uk/

    In 2013 I fitted an electric hoist to simplify raising the sail and a few minor sailing modifications.

    In 2014, after the old engine packed up, I replaced it with a Beta 25 (including a new prop) which cost over £6000…, which, due to my subsequent health problems, has been virtually unused (only 26 hours!) …

    In 2014 I also fitted a new Garmin EchoMap 50 chart plotter and redesigned the sailbag/lazyjack configuration.

    The boat is ashore at my boat club (the Portsmouth Harbour Cruising Association, near the M275) and ready for immediate launch …if you would like further information or would like to view the boat, please email me; chrisvn@virginmedia.com
