My wife won this beauty on The Price is Right!  The only problem is that we don't sail.  That's ok because it means that we can offer this great boat for an even better price.  Here is what West Wight Potter has to say about the Potter 19:Introduced in 1971, the Potter 19 offers a spacious and comfortable interior combined with a safe, enjoyable, fun sailing experience. Under sail you will have the distinction of knowing you are the skipper of a beautifully finished cruiser with features generally found only in far larger and more expensive yachts. No comparable trailer cruiser offers greater stability, easier towing, or easier handling than your West Wight Potter 19. The Potter 19’s keel design retracts vertically into the hull. The fully retracting
keel allows the Potter to be the only fully beachable cruiser her
size – great for going ashore in remote areas. The keel is raised and lowered by using a convenient winch, which is operated from the cockpit. This allows the skipper to adjust the keel position, without having to leave the helm The Potter 19 has closed cell foam flotation, fore and aft, and is unsinkable. Her high and dry self-bailing cockpit and great stability achieved by her hard chine are two of the Potter 19’s most impressive attributes. Even in strong winds the Potter 19 does not heel excessively, and with the standard 'Lapper' sail, she becomes one of most responsive boats in her size. The roomy interior features four sleeping berths while at the same time providing seating for up to five persons. Storage is extensive with compartments under each berth, a forward chain locker, storage under the sink and stove (to port and starboard), and handy seat back bins. Her carefully laid out design utilizes the full length of the boat. With simple rigging, the Potter 19 is one of the quickest boats to rig and launch in her size. Most Potter 19s can be rigged and launched in 45 minutes or less with no special skill or strength. A mast-raising system allows for one-person rigging if desired. Over-all length and height on the standard or Baja trailer allows the Potter 19 to be parked in a typical garage. The West Wight Potter 19 is a terrific boat for those long weekends! Enjoy trailering to new camping and recreational sights with all the comforts of a camper while being able, at a moment’s notice, to launch and sail away. That sounds pretty amazing, right!  Who wouldn't want to sail off to a quiet spot to enjoy a weekend away?  And best of all, your boat will have the amazing story of having been won on a game show!The boat is fully winterized and wrapped in plastic.  Just a note, two of the pictures that show the boat rigged are stock photos from the West Wight website.  This boat has never been rigged!  Its that new!
