Discover a timeless ocean home with this 1979 Formosa 51, designed by the renowned William Garden. This LLC-owned vessel comes with a transferable live aboard slip in MdR and is in great overall condition. Unlike ordinary yachts, the Formosa 51 embodies the essence of the sea, with elegant lines and curves that evoke the spirit of bluewater adventures. Crafted in Taiwan's prestigious Formosa yard during a golden age of yacht building, she features exquisite teak and mahogany, showcasing artistry over mass production. Her stunning clipper bow and graceful sheerline are sure to captivate in any harbor, while her full-keel hull and balanced ketch rig provide the stability and confidence sailors crave on long voyages. Step inside to experience a true sailor's sanctuary, where the warm aroma of teak welcomes you into a bright salon, beautifully crafted with solid joinery. The master stateroom offers a tranquil retreat, while the practical galley is well-equipped for extended journeys. Under sail, she is poised and elegant, gliding peacefully across the water. When the winds calm, her dependable Ford Lehman diesel engine ensures smooth navigation, with ample tankage and storage for adventures beyond the horizon. For those who view sailing as a lifestyle and a means to explore the world at a leisurely pace, this Formosa 51 is a unique blend of heritage, strength, and narrative. She is not merely a yacht; she is a gateway to a different way of life. Recent upgrades include a new autopilot (calibration needed), fresh bottom and hull paint, a new four-burner gas stove (not yet connected), new plumbing and electrical systems, stainless countertops, a new stainless handrail, a custom mattress in the master cabin, new rigging lines, a new steering hydraulic pump, and updated helm seating. The master bedroom has been extended, and while the genoa furler requires replacement, the existing electronics are functional and can be modernized. Additionally, she features an electrical windlass and more.
