Broker's Comments

What is there to add to such a sweet little thing that she is.... surely the pictures will drag you from your armchair for a day out on the south coast to see her lines!
A really superb looking version of the ever popular Folkboat that is in great condition and ticks all the boxes.
Sadly the owner is hanging up his sou'wester so we are looking for a new owner who will no doubt fall in love at first site.

Call me to arrange a viewing.
