Crafted in 1975 at Port Hammond, B.C., Canada by Folkes Manufacturing Ltd., One Ocean is a 90-foot custom staysail schooner with a striking all-steel hull—a timeless testament to Canadian shipbuilding & craftsmanship.

Originally configured with 26 berths, two heads, and even a sauna, her first voyages were as bold as her build. Under her second owner, she embarked on an extraordinary journey: sailing down the Pacific coast, transiting the Panama Canal, on to the Amazon, and eventually returning to Vancouver, where she was moored in Gastown. There, she served for many years as a charter vessel for scuba diving expeditions in the Gulf Islands. One of her most unique features—an onboard moon pool—which allowed divers to access the water directly from within the vessel, a rare and innovative design at the time.

Her colorful charter history and far-reaching voyages place her firmly within the annals of Canadian maritime heritage.

Below deck, One Ocean has undergone a significant transformation. The original 27 berths have been reconfigured to a spacious 12, surrounded by warm varnished mahogany paneling and a Brazilian cherry sole. Upgrades abound: new aluminum handrails, boomkins, updated plumbing and water tanks, fresh exterior canvas and upholstery. Her ceilings have been repainted a crisp white, enhancing natural light through 27 new 15” opening aluminum-framed portlights. The 6’x9’ main hatch is newly built of kiln-dried cedar with 7/8” triple-tempered glass. The pilothouse features a completely renovated helm station with massive Diamond SeaGlaze tempered windows, providing panoramic visibility.

The galley is well-appointed and smartly laid out, offering generous storage and functionality for long-term living or extended voyaging.
She is also rigged with serious ground tackle: a Fortress F120 anchor on 300’ of ½” galvanized chain, a 120 lb CQR, and a 150 lb Navy anchor—all managed by a powerful double-gypsy hydraulic windlass.

Between 2019 and 2025, One Ocean underwent a comprehensive six-year refit, including time on dry dock, hull panel re-plating, a fresh paint job for both hull and deck, and the replacement of her main mast and bowsprit. From bow to stern, she has been thoughtfully maintained or upgraded.

Now she’s ready!! For Sail-Sale. With a replacement value set at a whopping C$4,200,000 and C$430,000 current market value, She can be yours for Only $250,000 CAD =($190,000USD)

One Ocean awaits her next chapter—whether to become an oversized luxury liveaboard or a global bluewater voyager.
The choice is Yours.
