1967 NORDIC FOLKBOAT 25 FOOT SAILBOAT - SOLD - TRENTON AREA


Owner Comments:


SOLD.
This was a rare opportunity to own a unique Canadian built Wooden Nordic Folkboat. Known for their seaworthiness, Adelie was built in 1966/67 by Hans Gertsman, a well known Toronto sailor and master craftsman, and sold at the 1967 Toronto Boat Show. She is built with a lapstrake hull of Mahogany with Oak frames and Sitca Spruce Mast/Boom. Adlelie is unique because she has a long cabin with a tabernacle mounted mast. This gives her far more usable space below compared to the standard Folkboat. Adelie comes fully equipped to sail on Lake Ontario, which I have done for the last 17 years, single handed mostly. She is easily handled by 2 people. In 1982, Adelie was sailed to George Town in the Exuma's and back by her second owner and comes with a custom built wooden dingy built for that trip. I purchased her in 1999 at which time I had a $20,000 + rebuild to better than new condition by Woodwind Yachts. I have personally maintained and upgraded her since and she has been in the water and sailed every year and was only taken out of the water in August 2017 because I purchased another boat.

I do not want to sell Adelie but I have become a 2 boat owner after purchasing a large boat to sail off to the Caribbean in the spring. I have sailed her for 1,000's of nautical miles on Lake Ontario and she is a wonderful seaworthy boat that will take you safely anywhere you may wish to go. She is guarantied to turn heads at any port you arrive in. Valued at $35,000 for insurance and with an estimated cost of $125,000 to build a new one, Adelie represents an incredible value for a 50 year old rare Canadian Classic in very good overall condition. She needs a little cosmetic TLC but is otherwise ready to take you on many more adventures for many years to come.
