Potter 15



The World Famous West Wight Potter 15 sloop is one of the best known and oldest sailboats in the cruising fraternity. Over 2,600 of these attractive compact cruisers currently sail all over the world. Continuously improved over her long history the Potter 15 has achieved a noteworthy record of sailing successes, including sailing single handed from Seattle to Ketchikan and from England to Sweden across the North Atlantic. Adding to great tradition, we continually work to improve the Potter 15 and today’s boats are better then ever.

Features

Wide beam and unique hull configuration combine to provide the stability and sea-going attributes of far larger boats.
Designed for safety and ease of sailing so that even in stronger wind, the Potter 15 remains stable under sail, stays level on the water, and is known for her dry cockpit.
The standard kick-up rudder, fully retracting swing-keel, and moulded in keelsons make her one of the few beach able cruisers, great for going ashore in remote areas for that special picnic or exploring new shorelines.
With our specially designed fittings, one person can rig, launch, and sail –away in less then 30 minutes. Just step the mast, connect the side stays and you have completed the standing rigging.
The Potter 15 is designed to make that impulse to go sailing on a nice afternoon both achievable and enjoyable!
All new Potter 15 are protected by our exclusive Three year Warranty
The Potter 15 is offered in money saving packages, which include sails, trailer, and outboard motor.
