Hi everybody,

I have decided to add my 1958 Nordic Folkboat to the Wooden Boat Rescue Foundation. That's right, she is being given away for free.

The listing is located at:

http://www.woodenboatrescue.org/carview.php?view=112

Thanks,

Noah

Hi Noah,

Glad to see you're listing Patience on WBRF's website. She looks to be a very worthy project for someone and it's good to here you aren't going to leave her to fall apart before you're eyes. That seems to be a common thing with many boats, owners who love them but can't let them go. I think donating is a very noble approach to take to save a boat from an early demise.

Thank you, Don

Yeah, though I love "Patience" my hands are very full with other boats. I had a great time with her, but she needs a new home.

Hopefully the WBRF will help find her a new life.

Over-all height on the cradle is probably around 8 ft. It wouldn't be a problem for towing I don't think.

I have already had a bunch of emails, so she may already be spoken for...

You can see a picture of her on a Flatbed here (This was before I spent 2 months getting her into sailing condition):

Noah you need to add you contact info within your text. It does nt show on your listing unless you put it directly into the text.

There is another Folkboat on the site that the owner never gave contact info, so its just sitting there----can anyone recognize ther boat and get thte owner to add his/her contact info?
