Looking for a WWP 15 with trailer for sale; if it has a functioning outboard that's a big plus. The boat should be sailing ready; I don't mind minor fixes but I'm not looking for a project boat.
We're located in the Florida panhandle (Fort Walton Beach) but don't mind driving a few hours for the right boat.
Thanks!

https://www.facebook.com/share/p/GAVbUWBQuqHKW2pT/
Wiring Mod:
Completely Rewired where the distribution and buss components are mounted in 2 watertight pelican cases on the interior starbord cabin/ cockpit bulkhead.
There is a water tight marine glove box on the cockpit side of the bulkhead that houses the switch panel. So all electrics are controlled from the cockpit!
When I first bought the boat I complete gutted all wiring for this configuration and used all wire sizes to standard code. Example: # 6 wire for all battery 12 dc run to busses
All wiring is run on the starbord side of the cabin and exposed in plain sight affix the the cabin bulkhead. Not run under cabinets impossible to access as was the factory install.
There is a new 30,000 lumin horizontal bar bow light that makes it like daylight when boating at night
Fuel System Components:
To eliminate a gas can on the floor of the cockpit deck as a fire safety and tripping hazzard I purchased a 5 gallon Alum race car fuel tank and perminatly afixted it to the foredeck. Giving a 6 hp Outboard a 50 mile motoring range with reserve at 5 miles per hour @ 2000 rpm.
There is a An-6 3/8" anodized alum fuel shut off valve mounted on the tank. The fuel is run to the stern via a 3/8" fuel line also using AN-6 anodized connectors. The fuel in is protected by SS braded sheilding exterior as used on race cars, mounted to the weather deck every 12" with SS one hole brackets with rubber lining on the port side right next to the cabin verticle as not to present a trip hazzard or wear to the fuel line from foot traffic going forward.
Motor Power:
There are 2 Outboard motors mounted to the stern.
Motor #1: 2014 Nissan 6 hp 4 stroke that starts easy. Idles perfect for maneuvering slow in the harbor for docking. This motor also has and internal fuel tank switchable from the main fuel line via a factory selector valve. The reserve fuel capacity is about 45 mins.
Motor # 2: This 2005 Honda 4 stroke aux motor or the kicker motor to offer back up to # 1. It also starts easy and run very smooth.
2 Motor Saftey Configuration: The idea is to use the #1 Motor for propulsion and # 2 as back up. They can be run simultanusly but doing so does not produce much more speed.
It does give more torque power and that can be useful when try to overcome current or tide forces and is helpful when towing a vessel in distress.
So before shoving off at the dock, both motors should be started and warmed up in case you need to go to back up, it is a warmed up unit.
When motor sailing it is always smart to switch motors every hour so if back up is required, both motor are primed and activly warm up.
Added SS gantry mounted on the stern for Radar Dome elevation requirements and housing watertight Pelican boxes for marine electronics. The 2024 GPS Chart Plotter/ and Radar Aray Screens are close to the helm and easily read by the skipper without moving from the helm.
The boat has been balast compensated even keel C/G.
Cabin Interior Mod Features:
1. 750 watt 2024 Microwave oven replacing the camping stove with propane which I see as a fire Hazzard in a confined space. This is very convenient for cooking. Making coffee and warming up leftovers. Very efficient and when used with disposal utensils. Plates, bowels and Cup require no clean up of pots, pans or Coffee Pots after meals.
2. 110 volt and 12v output River Pro 2 Battery Generator with solor pannal or 110v charging capabilities.
Ice Chest:
The portable toliet has been remove and a tall Coleman Ice Chest is in its place for keep food and drinks cold.
Toilet:
A 5 gallon bucket with toliet seat is stowed under the V Berth if need. It has 20 bags with and absorbent pad and kitty litter in each bag. The bag fits on the rim of the bucket the seat is place on the lid. The bag is later tied, sealed and placed in the main garbage.
Cushions are in very good shape and the aft starbord rear quarter berth cushion is missing because the last owner removed it to make it easy to slide and store things in that area and I have found that to be good.
Potter 19s are good for camping for only two people IMO because by the time you get all you gear on board you need the one berth to side your bags and gear in the berth. So I aways camp with 2 people, port side Q berth and V berth.
Sails:
JIB Roller furling system for Genoa.
The main is the original with the Potter Logo and Hull number 1545 on it. It is in very good shape and show no signs of chaffing. I believe it is 5 oz dacron. This boat at one time was not sailed for 9 years before my refit.
The forsail is a 130 or 40 Genoa I belive and is not original and is light material. It has some slight signs of wear because it is lighter in weight but I belive has many years to go as a cruising sail beefore needing replacement and or repair.
Both sails show good shape and show no repair work ever.
Bimini and covers: The Bimini is a bit tattered because we forgot to put the zippered cover on during a 6 hours trip home from Cali. The frame is perfect. So upon making a deal the new buyer can pick out the fabric color they wish and I will ordered it and deliver before they take possession.
Also includes main sail cover and tiller cover!
Swim Ladder: when the starbord side engine was installed the ladder was moved to the starbord stern side of the boat. It has two heavy duty rubber thick dock bumper to protect the ladder. The boat can be launched or docked on either side but I prefer docking and launching port side!
Bottom Paint: the blue Interlux paint is in very good condition and because it is a trailer sailor not left in a slip, it should last for many more years.
Trailer: Since I bought the boat in 2023, I have invested over 2 thousand in trailer upgrades:
1. Upgraded from 2000 to 3500 lb axel, with brand new hubs,bearings and seals .
2. 3 Brand new 14" Wheels and 10 ply rated radials. These HD 65 psi road trailer tires are class D. They are M rated safe to 84 mph.
When I first got the boat I replaced the smaller tires with new ones and had 2 blow outs within a 1000 miles because exceeding 70 mph with the smaller footprint creating excessive heat. These new larger wider radialcan handle 75 mph all day long with ease. Lessons learned.
The trailer has a California "Forever Lic Plate" with no annual fees requiring a sticker.
Title and Registration: I live in Nevada and the boat is licenced and Registered in Cali which is allowed. The title is free and clear, can be easily transfered and boat registration sticker is paid till end of 2025.
Mast raising system: i Custom Designed and fab welded a 6061 alum schedule 40 pipe gin pole for mast raising. Also included is a 500 lb ratchet winch.
Anchor: one original galvanized Danforth with chain rode a 75' of 1/2" nylon. The anchor mont on a bracket on the pulpet. The bow the the anchor failed SS roller bracket to protect the bostcwhile retrieving the anchor.
2 dock bumpers and dock lines included.
Reason for Selling:
I love the Potter 19 Blue Water lay up hull with hard chine for coastal cruising, island hopping and camping.
I just bought a Catalina 22 MK 2 because it looks like all my entire family will be living in Vegas in the near future and I have many friends and family members who fly in to go sailing here and this "trailer sailor" accommodates more people.
With the pop top cabin, 8' 4" beam and larger cockpit, it allows me to sail with 5 or even 6 in a pinch with plenty of space.
If the boat interests you please give me a text with your name and email
to request the detailed Email Package with full description and a ton of pics and price.
I am going on a regatta tomorrow and will send out emails starting Thursday Oct 24th.
Once you have recieved the email, I will be happy to answer any and all question set up showings, and discuss price options.
I have some sailing events planned so the soonest I can show the boat would be after Nov 10th.
The boat is in Las Vegas.
When I bought this boat I figured it was the last boat I would buy as I am now 70. I spent a lot of money and hundreds of hrs doing mods designed for Safe Ocean Cruising.
My family moving here caused me to rethink and buy the bigger Cat 22.
Thanks

This is a project or parts boat. Selling due to health reasons.
The Hull # is 337 and is on a trailer.
I need everything sold and will be willing to sell the parts, I just didn't want to crush the hull as its in good condition.
The project is rebuilding the Foc'sle. All the wood {except for the keel housing} was rotted and removed.
The hull is in good shape, trailer is rusted but is structurally sound.
The mast, boom, gaff, sails and rudder are in good shape. The best part: Brand new cushions for the bunks and cockpit. The former owner paid $600 for them 8 years ago.
