Watkins Yachts

The company was founded by the four Watkins brothers. The first yacht produced was the WATKINS 23 in 1974, similar to the HELSEN YACHTS 22. Rich Watkins obtained permission to duplicate the hull with some modifications from Johannes “Jopie” Helsen, owner of Helsen Yachts. The Watkins brothers commissioned Walter Scott to assist them in designing the WATKINS 27, which was brought out in 1977. Around 1980 the company was taken over by Al Larson, owner of Auroraglas, a boat building company that had been purchased by Watkins Yachts. After this, the company rolled out a number of larger yachts, (WATKINS 25, 32 and 36) all based on tooling that had been purchased from the now defunct Columbia Yachts including the sister Coronado brand. (It should be pointed out, that all these models were significantly modified and it is difficult to determine the similarities of the WATKINS and the earlier Columbia’s even after close inspection) In 1986 the Watkins company was sold to the McLaughlin Body Co. The sailboat line was renamed as ‘SEAWOLF’. But after this, power boats became the main stay of production. From then on only about one or two hulls per month of each of the 3 remaining models were built. The last WATKINS model was produced in 1989.

1988 Watkins 25' sailboat

Pics and description to come! Boat is gorgeous, near-mint. Presently stored on the hard for the winter - the marina will put it back into the water in May at no charge. Here's the brocure on this beautiful Watkins:

1981 Watkins 36 Center Cockpit Sailboat

Bay St. Louis, Mississippi

Category Center Consoles

Length 36.0

Overhauled (2015) ocean-capable cruiser. Would make a great live aboard or offshore cruiser. Has survived 7 hurricanes. Everything below the waterline was replaced last year (through-hulls, engine shaft, propeller, etc). AC, refrigeration, LPG stove/oven, 90 gal water, 40 gal diesel. Perkins 4108 engine - runs great, rebuilt 2012. Complete details in survey. All recommendations in survey have been completed. Everything integral to the performance of the boat has been maintained or restored. There are some quirks, as with any boat though, most are cosmetic: The cushions are old and could use new upholstery, some stains and tears. The overhead upholstery is the same, stained with some tears, but overall acceptable condition. Side hatches leak to some extent; last winter I temporarily sealed them with silicone but there is some water damage to the overhead upholstery and some of the wood veneer has gotten soft over the years and fell away. All the top hatches do not lock closed (they close completely but the locks on them are broken). The refrigerator runs but does not get very cold. It takes R12. I have a can of it I bought recently but haven't added it to the system yet. The air conditioner blows very cold, recently replaced the capacitor for the motor and added a brand new water pump but the hose is old and could be replaced. All of the wood outside could use some sanding and varnish. I don't know how to pilot it so it has sat at the marina for the last year. Survey appraises it at $34,000, I'm asking $32,000. Money talks, come take a look make me an offer.

27' 1979 Watkins 27

St Petersburg, Florida

Please call boat owner Taina at 323-369-8778. Boat is located in St.Petersburg, Florida. I am selling my 1979 Watkins 27ft sailboat. I have been fixing her up over the last year. There is more to do to get her sail worthy. The really wonderful thing about her is you can live aboard this sailboat and the slip is transferrable It is a walk-in liveaboard situation. I have gotten all of the systems needed to liveaboard working. It has hot and cold running water, 2 sinks, toilet, stove, radio, cabin lighting, a stove, refridgerator, heater, air conditioner, 3 beds. I just had new electricity run with and new panel switches and it has two battery rechargers, except the running lights mast, front. The plumbing is all working. She has a large amt of water storage. Has more extras, radios, etc. Quite frankly, if you ever dreamed of cutting yr expenses and living in a marina, this boat can really fulfill this The environment is beautiful, and other dock liveaboards are friendly. Sails needed to be checked, needs a new Jib, Running lights, maybe more. Someone who knows about sailboats would be a great new owner and can finish the work I have done so far. If you know something about fixing boats and sailing, this could be a super deal for you and with a little work you could brave the seas with this sturdy fiberglass cruise sailboat. She is not for racing, more for comfort, with a 3.9 ft keel and 10 ft wide beam. She was created for sailing comfort. She is very large inside for this size of sailboat and was originally overbuilt on her fiberglass hull, standing rigging and mast compared to later models. She has been cleaned extensively inside and is really fun to hang out on. So..... relaxing. A 6 ft man can stand up in her. Rocks you to sleep... I can disclose everything that I know about her, I have been learning as I go. Ideally, you would know something about boats so you can sum up all information as I am not an expert. She will need an outboard motor as her motor was removed and the bottom glassed over. Hull is solid I had this checked. A used motor, short or long shaft can be purchased for a few hundred. Needs a new jib and new jib halyard. Will need some bottom cleaning. The boat is being sold As-Is. This type of sailboat when fully fixed up is selling being listed for 20,000. NADA listing for this boat is below with the extras it has. You can put some time and money into her and sell her for more than you purchased her for, if you ever want to. This sailboat wants to get out sailing, but needs someone a little more expert than I, so I decided to sell this boat and get a smaller one to learn to sail on. I am open to a part trade for a smaller sized boat 2500. I accept cash, cashiers or certified check, paypal or credit cards for payment. But only selling As-Is. Call and we can make an appointment to see her.
