Hi Mike. Seeing your Folbot brings back wonderful memories. I built one like it back in the late 60’s. I didn’t have the sailing kit with mine. It was red on the bottom and yellow on top. Inside was gray. I remember it being very stable, comfortable and would easily go in shallow water. I still regret not bringing it with me when I moved to Oregon many years ago. I’m sure I’d still be using it if I had. Thanks for the video.
Hi Mike, I just bought a quite similar Folbot Super 17. I live in Portland, and enjoyed the video you posted of you sailing the Willamette. I'm curious about some of the rigging on your boat, but I don't see anyway to send you a PM on RUclips.
Hi Mike, I also just got a vinytage 17 1/2 foot boat almost identical to yours. Do you know of any instructions about rigging it and the rudder assembly? Thank you.
thanks for the video just bought a rigid super with most but not all of the sailing rig

What a neat little boat. Very nice!
Hi Mike, I'm looking to recreate this sail for my folbot super. Any chance you've still got yours?
Any way you could send me some photos of assembling this? Thx
yes, I have 10 hi-res photos of the assembly instructions that came with the boat (circa 1963)
