Broker's Comments

A lovely small cruiser, built to the traditional Nordic Folkboat design but in GRP and with a longer coach-roof. This vessel has been sailed extensively by the current owner across the English Channel, to ports in France, as far as Tangier and lots of other lovely ports far from home. A very seaworthy vessel which has been set up for single or short-handed sailing.
