Boat Description

Introducing the 1979 Formosa 46 Cutter, "Kapai," now available for $100,000. With a length overall of 43'9", a beam of 12'8", and a draft of 5'1", this classic beauty combines proven performance with liveaboard comfort. Step aboard Kapai, a stunning cutter-rigged cruiser designed for extended adventures, showcasing a hand-laid fiberglass hull, fully enclosed hardtop cockpit, and a beautifully varnished teak interior. Whether offshore, at anchor, or as a welcoming home, Kapai has been meticulously maintained and upgraded for comfort and durability at sea. Highlights include a cutter rig with a complete sail inventory, two spacious staterooms with private heads, a solid fiberglass hull with no blisters reported, a custom "sugar scoop" stern for easy water access, a diesel genset, and solar power for self-sufficiency. Recently priced to sell, Kapai offers excellent value for her class. Inside, enjoy a warm, inviting interior finished in golden teak, complete with brass opening portlights and a teak cabin sole. The layout is perfect for liveaboards or long journeys: - Salon: Bright and airy with great ventilation, featuring a large dinette that converts to a double berth and a full settee. - Galley: U-shaped and well-equipped with a double stainless steel sink, DC-powered refrigerator, propane stove/oven, and ample storage, along with hot water from a 6-gallon heater and a Hurricane hydronic heating system. - Navigation Station: Dedicated chart table with LED GPS, radar, and sounder displays, also ideal for a shipboard office. - Forward Cabin: Queen V-berth with ensuite head, shower, sink, toilet, and linen locker. - Aft Cabin: King-size berth with private head, drawers, standing room, and hanging lockers. Kapai's deck and rigging are designed for secure bluewater handling, featuring a center cockpit with a custom hardtop dodger, walkaround decks, large bow and stern platforms, and a custom sugar scoop swim platform. She comes with a full complement of sails including a triple reef main, ProFurl roller furling genoa, stay sail, spinnaker with sock, storm jib, and whisker pole, as well as electric and manual winches for anchor handling, stern-mounted dinghy davits, and a gas BBQ grill. Equipped for self-sufficient cruising, Kapai boasts robust systems: an 85 HP Lehman Ford diesel engine, 130-gallon fuel capacity, and 130-gallon water tank with a 6-gallon heater. Anchoring is made easy with a 33 lb Bruce anchor and a 66 lb Bruce anchor, along with an electric windlass and manual winch. Emergency systems include a diaphragm bilge pump, emergency tiller, and mechanical steering. All onboard systems are thoughtfully integrated for redundancy and ease of use, including a Yanmar APC 750 diesel generator, DR Trace inverter, and advanced navigation and communication equipment. With additional features like Hurricane diesel hydronic heating, a propane wall heater, Aquamet 22 stainless steel shaft, and recent bottom paint (2021), Kapai is ready for her next adventure. If you're seeking a spacious, classically styled offshore cruiser with robust systems and a warm liveaboard charm, Kapai deserves your attention.
