I have always admired the folkboat design, so when I was in Europe recently, I chartered one for the day. Here is how it went! I often day dream about buying on of these, so I put it through it's paces to see if I'd like it. I test how it behaves on the different points of sail, how it maneuvers and how well it sails itself in different directions.

I'm not affiliated with this but you can actually hire this particular boat
