Formosa 51


3 / 3 - score 18%

The Formosa 51 is a 51.0ft staysail ketch designed by William Garden and built in fiberglass by Formosa Boat Building Co. Ltd. between 1972 and 1984.

The Formosa 51 is a very heavy sailboat which is under powered. It is not stiff and has an excellent righting capability if capsized. It is best suited as a heavy bluewater cruising boat.

It looks like this boat is not adapted to your usage.
