Colvic went into liquidation at the end of 2000. Assets were bought by Lancer Laminating, who were supposedly going to continue, etc, etc, etc, etc

I think you may have, I've been trying to get information on my 40' Victor but I think they 'went down' a year or two back.
Sorry to be the bearer of such news.

If its any help the Colvic Countess Association is currently at
<A target="_blank" HREF=http://freespace.virgin.net/tony.kerry/>http://freespace.virgin.net/tony.kerry/</A>
They list a Countess 28 in the range but if that's not the one, one of the contacts listed on the site may be helpful.

Landamores fitted out a great deal of Colvic boats and should have archive info. You can contact them via Oysters in Ipswich who have also had many yachts completed by them over the years. I know Colvic have gone bust and Lancers now have the mouldings but Landamores would still be worth contacting

I have recently bought a Colvic Watson 26, and I am looking for the same sort of information that you were. Did you have any luck

Unfortunately my search has so far been fruitless.
I must admit that I am surprised that none of the magazines seem to have reviewed any of the Colvic range.
Kit boats are obviously not in favour.

Re: review
OK Point taken but I can't find a review anywhere on the Colvic Sailor 26 which has been available for home completion & as a complete package by several others.
So my search goes on.
