This delightful "pocket cruiser" was purchased new by the current owner and has been meticulously maintained since. In his book The World's Best Sailboats, Ferenc Maté says: "Flicka is one of those rare miracles that have been found by many to be the ideal little boat that is not just a weekender but a solid world cruiser, one that has sailed on as many long voyages as most bigger boats. There are over four hundred Flickas roaming out there now, simple, strong and spacious and mere child's play to sail." He goes on to refer to it as "being built like a brick loo", and says that "the interior is so wide open you'd think you were home on the range." Many consider it the finest 20 footer in the world.
PINGOUIN is firmly priced at $55,000 US.
