Broker's Comments

The Colvic Countess 28 is a well built, solid family bilge keel cruiser.

Inside she is clean, the upholstery is in good condition and there is plenty of room with comfortable accommodation for 6 people.

The galley is equipped with a 2 burner gas hob, grill and oven and there is a washing up sink with cold water supply beside.

The engine was serviced during the summer of 2023 by the owner.

She is not equipped with all the latest fancy GPS technology but if you are in the market for 28 foot cruiser to simply enjoy spending time on the water please do take a further look at this boat.

A copy of the survey is available on request.
