Broker's Comments

The Colvic Victor 34 has a great reputation as a sturdy sea-going vessel, and her spacious wheelhouse provides the capability to safely sail in all weather condition.

I must admit, I was very impressed with how clean, tidy and well presented this vessel was. She is a testament to her current owner's obvious care and attention to detail over the years she has been in his ownership.

Her hull appeared to be in lovely condition and had a great shine to her topsides. The long, deep encapsulated keel again looked in good condition as did her entire underwater profile throughout.

Stepping aboard the first thing that I noticed was the deep, safe-feeling cockpit along with the lovely woodwork surrounding the cockpit. There is a wheel helm mounted centrally in the cockpit which has a nice array of sailing and navigation instruments which provide the skipper and crew with an excellent helming position whilst sitting in the cockpit.

Stepping into the vessel through the large companionway you enter into the large, spacious saloon galley area which has large windows and a larger than usual hatch built into the wheelhouse roof, all of which provide great all-round visibility and let the natural daylight flood in.

On the port side of the vessel, in front of the galley is the second helm position. It feels a very comfortable place to sit, with excellent visibility and an array of engine and helm controls.

Moving forward down two steps brings you into the midship section of the vessel. On the starboard side is a large cabin with storage and a crew berth. Then on the port side is the heads with shower and was basin.

Then moving into the bow section is the large double berth forward cabin. Again, a large cabin with lots of stowage and light flooding in through the forward hatch.

All in all I was very impressed with this boat's appearance and the clever use of space along with her practical design for comfort and safety at sea during long passages or just coastal hopping in all weathers. This is certainly one to view!

Please don't hesitate to contact me if you have any questions or would like to book a viewing.

Owners FAQ's

How long have you owned the boat for?

7 years.

Why are you selling her?

My family is growing up. Our son was only 3 years old when we all lived on board for a few months touring the Caledonian Canal and West Coast of Scotland. Now there are new interests such as dinghy sailing, so I'm looking to down size to a day boat.

Where have you sailed her?

Holland, North Sea, Caledonian Canal, Western Isles, Irish Sea, Milford Haven, Falmouth, Plymouth, Exe Estuary and the Channel Islands.
