REMARKS

The classic long keel cruiser/racer with probably the longest pedigree and production run ever. Over one thousand examples have been built in Europe alone and fleets established as far afield as San Francisco and Sydney.

A thoroughbred all weather performer with impeccable manners.

Prior to purchase by the current owner in 2004 she benefitted from a professional refit by HMS of Southwold including the hull being stripped and West epoxied, strengthening of frames and attention to planking where necessary. New keel bolts were fitted in 2009. Between 2009 and 2011 she underwent further professional renovation to planking, side decks and rudder by Wooden Boats Forever Ltd., at Dolphin Quay Boatyard (since moved to Birdham Pool).

Nordic Folkboat mast, boom and standing rigging

Negotiable

Our Ref: 1 | Sail No: N/A | Location: Poole Yacht Club | Year Built: | Built By:

Description:

The previously owned mast was supplied to me by Tony Smee three seasons ago. Although in good condition I had it professionally prepared and sprayed locally in two pack light grey epoxy paint, as was the boom.
Because of the Covid situation the rig has had minimal use since and requires only minor cosmetic work.
Viewing can easily be arranged at The Poole Yacht Club and I would be happy to negotiate a reasonable price with anyone who is interested.
