Remarks

Based on the folkboat, this very attractive and unusual Broads sailing cruiser is sadly thought to be the last of her type still in existence. She offers comfortable accommodation for two, and benefits from having a inboard engine (new head gasket and serviced 2018). With her canoe stern and charming looks, she will surely turn heads where ever she goes. Absolutely delightful!

A quick sale is desired due to the purchase of another boat and OFFERS WILL BE CONSIDERED!

MOORING: It's understood that a northern Broads mooring may be available to the purchaser subject to negotiation and agreement from the mooring owner.
