Sail No | GBR 736 |

She was the Southampton Boat Show exhibit in 2004.
The boat has been meticulously maintained by the owner and updated over the years to a full race specification. Antifoul has been stripped and reapplied every year to prevent build up, and she has been stored under a winter cover with a dehumidifier and heater installed. The mast and rig have been stored separately in a local barn each winter. This boat is in exceptional condition, and every attention has been made to ensure all sail controls function effortlessly.
She has had a long and successful racing record in both one-design and handicap racing culminating in a handicap win in the Royal Lymington Pottership Trophy in 2022.

Fully rebuilt and commissioned sum 20 years ago, following a lengthy spell on the hard. (some 15 years). Full details available on request, supported by photographs. Including new keel bolts, new oak floors etc. entire new cockpit, coach roof etc…
I’ve just completed a major overhaul over the last 4 years (part time!) on the hard.
She is rot free and leak free and ready for a new adventure
Do not mistake this for one of the many aging wooden yachts out there that are down on their luck having been neglected and abandoned to their fate. This little Folkboat is fully restored. I’ve worked on her for 20 years. I know every inch of her. Inside and out. Structurally she is totally sound. Aesthetically superb.
The only area that lets her down are the sails. They are all past their best and would benefit from a new suit.
