Description




FeaturesClassic 8m Folkboat with a Long Keel that has a well-renowned reputation as a well-founded sea-going yacht. Their sea-worthiness is well known, handling heavy weather and big seas far better than bigger, more modern boats.PHYLION has been well cared for by her current owner who is motivated to sell, and would like to see the boat find herself a good home, where she will be well cared for and sailed. She is currently out of the water in Portland and available to view.Broker's view: "A good example of this well renowned, long keeled, cruiser, with timeless looks that will give her new owner a safe and reliable boat that can handle anything that the sea can throw at her. Well priced and please feel free to make a sensible offer."
