Tusan is an Marieholm International Folkboat. Totally restored 18months ago with, new; Tusan has a very good set of cruising sails (main and genoa) with a slightly tired spinicker and a good jib, she also has a couple of self furlinging jibs and all the lines needed to sail. Having sailed her from Portsmouth to the top of wales last year she has been really pushed and performed extremely well for a small boat in good and bad conditions. Tusan is very safe and can easily be sailed solo or with a crew. She sleeps 4 and has a good size cockpit. Tusan was built by Marieholms Bruk in Småland (SWE). She was originally called Scout and was used as a test boat by Tord Sundon the designer and the Bruck brothers as she was only the second IF to be built. Tusan was then owned by the Swedish navy where her name was changed and brought over to England in the early 90s by the previous owner.Any questions or to organise a viewing in Portsmouth please mesage me through eBay or call on 07971236157Sam Scottorn.
