Colvic Boats Countess 35 CC centre cockpit for sale in Chatham United Kingdom

Colvic Countess 35 for sale Kent.

This Countess 35 for sale in the Medway  is the most astounding sailing yacht I have had the pleasure to broker.  She Was moulded by Colvic and fitted out for the buyer by Signas Marine through careful ownership she looks like the day she was built someone stored here as a showroom sample.  A true credit to here owners that have owned her from NEW The Teak is pristine and the gel coat gleams. You would be forgiven for thinking the build date was post 2010.

  All halyards are lead back for ease of use and short handed sailing, benefiting also from a stack pack lazy jack type system and a deep safe centre cockpit.
