Broker's Comments

This tidy little Folk Boat will make a good safe cruising boat, combined with the up and downwind sailing performance that you get with all Folk boats. There are four good berths and a spacious cockpit, lots of recent sails and plenty of extras

She has been looked after during her life and is clean and tidy down below, the Yanmar engine was installed in 2002, she has also had new cutlass bearings and stern gear. With a little bit of work on the exterior varnish this boat would come up like a new one.

The twin axel trailer comes with the boat, and she is ready to drive away and launch, she would be ideal for a couple or small family to get away for weekends. This is a good honest sailing, at a good honest price.
