Bluewater cruising and travel await with this Folkes 42 Motorsailer/Cutter yacht. Travel the coast or cruise to far-away destinations aboard the Folkes.
The boat is powered by a 55 horsepower Volvo Penta diesel engine and by its full sail set, including roller furling headsail, main, staysail, and spinnaker. The in-cabin helm makes the Folkes a true motorsailer with a helm wheel and navigation capabilities under roof. The aft cockpit helm is outfitted with beautiful teak deck and benches alongside the Ritchie compass-crowned helm station.
Radar, depth sounder, weather facsimile instrument, digital compasses, and autopilot are onboard for navigation. For communication: Lorad model XR-90 VHF and ICom model IC-M302 VHF. The make and model for electronics are detailed below.
The cabin is heated by a Webasto diesel heater. The steel hull has a 3" sprayed foam liner and the owner indicates the Webasto keeps the cabin warm even in below zero temperatures. Accommodations include a forward stateroom, quarter berth, and a convertible dinette-settee for more sleeping capacity. Manual head with overboard discharge, sink, and shower are in the separate head compartment. The full galley includes a propane-fueled stove, oven, and double sink with storage above and below the counters.
The Folkes' original white hull was painted maroon as is depicted in the photos. The pilothouse is ready for paint and some of the pilothouse windows need replacement.
The Volvo Penta engine runs well and has approximately 1500 running hours, the owner confirms.
Sails are in good shape and electronics are functioning as expected. The running rigging is not used much and should be replaced or soaked to loosen it up.
