Owner Comments

Third owner, purchased January 2021. This Nordic Folkboat is well-maintained, over-wintered in Folkboats UK barn, on the water April – September.

A few items added for cruising comfort:
A stack pack/lazy jacks/topping lift help manage the mainsail;
A simple reefing system utilises a hook into a cringle added to the old sail, makes much more comfortable in strong winds without significant lee helm.
All can be quickly stripped out for racing.

Good for racing in the local fleet.
