    Does anyone know how a person could get a set of Folkboat plans, as per the original wood lapstrake design?

    They are still available - from the original organization, in Denmark, i think. there may be a u.s. folkboat group. i will try to find the references, but in the meantime you can try searching the web.
    the folkboat is still going strong, and may very well be the most successful one-design ever invented.

    Peter,

    I bought a set of Folkboat plans in 1998. The person and place was: Ms. Merete Jensen, Dansk Sejlunion, Idraettens Hus, DK-2605 Brondby, Denmark.

    The plans then cost 450 Danish Kroner, or $80.14 US,plus a service fee for a foreign draft.

    Now when you build one, why not two? One for me.

    I tried to e-mail you, but it bounced. Contact me at pjacobs@islandnet.com if you would like to part with the plans.
