Broker's Comments

These are pretty boats, especially in wood, and pretty fast, too. I should know, I've been overtaken by plenty of them (though perhaps that says more about my racing skills, or lack thereof). This example appears to be pretty sound, and has relatively recent sails and a new engine in 2013. The mast is brand new and awaits some new standing rigging fittings prior to being stepped. Given the cost of the recent major upgrades to sails, engine and spars, the asking price is a steal, so if you're in the market for a well-equipped wooden Folkboat, you're unlikely to do better than this one.

These boat details are subject to contract.
Note: Offers on the asking price may be considered.

Where the particulars herein give details of a boat, whether new or used, they are intended to give a fair description of the vessel but are not guaranteed as accurate or complete.

The vendor is not selling in the course of a business unless otherwise stated. Personal property is excluded from the sale of the vessel unless specifically included in the listing specification above or in a purchase contract. Personal property may be equipment or gear not permanently attached to the vessel including but not limited to: artwork, entertainment equipment, fishing equipment, TV receivers, recreational equipment, kayaks, tools, and personal appliances. Photos that may incidentally depict owners' personal property do not convey that such items are included in the sale of the vessel unless such items are specifically listed herein.
