Re: Folkboat

You might try the Folkboat Association, also some of the internet advertising forums like boats & outboards. Old folkboats seem to go for anything between nominal sums and £7-8k for really good ones. It all really depends on the structural state and the quality of equipment. If the boat is afloat and ready to sail she's worth a lot more than one that needs extensive restoration, basically.

Re: Folkboat

Thanks Ken,
she is in a bit of a state,but mostly cosmetic apart from the rubbing strake,also the engine a stuart Turner needs looking at,i will get on to the association.
