Broker's Comments

Nordic Folk boats are much sought after clinker built cruising yachts. The fact that so many are still cruising today is a testament to their superior build quality. This one is in super condition and has exceptionally beautiful lines. She really is a classic in every sense of the word. Belowdecks the gleaming woodwork is as new and gives the cabin a warm, inviting feel. She was last surveyed 2007 when all recommended maintenance was carried out. She also comes with a new tender, outboard and life raft. Anyone considering buying a Folk boat should seriously consider viewing this exceptional example.

Now, seriously priced to sell!
