She is a Formosa 68 Cutter Rigged Ketch. This absolutely precious Princess of the Sea is now on the market and she is available. If you are truly serious about blue water cruising in safety and elegance than this is indeed the yacht for you. This yacht is currently active in the Caribbean Charter business and you could keep her working if you so desired. On the other hand she is an absolutely perfect family yacht which you and your family would be very proud to own. She has just completed an extensive two year refit and she is pristine. Her Ford Lehman 225 horsepower Turbo Diesel engine has been rebuilt. Her bottom has been stripped, barrier coated and painted with multiple coats of premier anti-fouling bottom paint. Her masts have both been replaced with new ones. A dive compressor has been installed. The list goes on and on. Her owner is about to retire which makes this treasure of a yacht available. Since the owner will be retiring he has placed a price on her which is below her current market value. That could actually be your lucky break. She is ready to cruise! She is working and she is cruising but don't let that stop you from having your own inspection. Simply contact me and I will make arrangements for you to visit her wherever she happens to be.
Would you be interested in a FREE Cruise? Purchase this fine blue water cruising yacht and sail her down to New Zealand or Australia where they know the true value of quality built yachts like this one. Sell her down there for at least one-third more than what you paid for her up here and ~ voila ~ a free cruise and you will probably make yourself some extra money! I fully expect that one of my Australian or New Zealand readers will find this one in a hurry with exactly the same idea in mind. These Formosa yachts are very well known and appreciated in that part of the world.
