Folk boat

 Really nice example of a Nordic  folk boat looking great in the early morning sun.

At just over 25 feet this would make a really nice day boat for the Solent fun  and rewarding to sail, relatively shallow draft which is good for getting into some of the more interesting places and very capable when the afternoon sea breeze kicks up wind over tide chop.

 I keep thinking that one of these would be a really good part of the upcoming retirement plan, except for that short coach roof which stops aft of the mast and gives a clear, uncluttered fore deck.  But it also speaks of very limited space below deck  the fore peak might be fine for stowing  sails and spinnaker, but not a walk in toilet which Mrs BB demands.
