Colvic Countess 28

For Sale: 1981 Colvic Countess 28 | Extensively Refit | Liveaboard Opportunity | Brighton Marina | New Price

A fantastic opportunity to acquire a Colvic Countess 28, a well-regarded and capable family cruising yacht, now extensively modernised and ideally suited for comfortable liveaboard use in Brighton Marina.

‘Hamble Countess’ has benefitted from a major internal refit during her current ownership (past 4 years), transforming her into a bright, modern, and highly usable space—far removed from the typical presentation of vessels of this age.

The result is a boat that combines proven seaworthy design with a fresh, contemporary interior, making her an excellent option for those looking to step into boat ownership or secure an affordable liveaboard in Brighton.

🛏️ Accommodation & Living Aboard

The Countess 28 is known for offering exceptional interior volume for her size, and this example takes that further with her refit:

Comfortable and practical layout

Ideal for extended stays or full-time living aboard

Warm, modernised interior finish

Manageable size for single-handed or couple use

⭐ Why This Yacht Stands Out:

Extensively refitted interior – modern and ready to enjoy

2024 refurbished engine – mechanical upgrade

Proven Colvic build quality and seaworthiness

Ideal entry-level liveaboard option

Excellent value vs larger, more expensive alternatives

📍 Lying Brighton Marina

With demand for affordable liveaboard boats in Brighton remaining high, well-presented and upgraded examples like this are increasingly difficult to find.

Early enquiry is strongly recommended.
