International 25, a Folkboat derivative, designed by Jac Iversen. Built at

the Bergshamra Boatyard, Stockholm, Sweden in 1951. Carvel planked mahogany

on white oak frames, and epoxy fiberglass reinforced. Extensively rebuilt

and hurricane proven during an ocean crossing to Bermuda. In good condition

overall, but needs more attention than I can give. She is a superb sailing

vessel, and is the perfect no frills pocket cruiser for ocean voyaging. If

you want to sail anywhere, this is the boat for you.

She has been described by crew that pound for pound

and inch for inch she is one of the best sailing vessels ever.

Please contact for details or to make offer.

Location: Kingston, NY

I hate to say it, but you may need therapy. You've got the small boat fever bad....
