Owner's Comments of the Formosa 51

Many sea miles have been sailed with my Formosa 51, including three return passages across the North Atlantic. The last crossing was in 2007 with the ARC rally plus extensive sailing in the Caribbean, Northern Europe and the Mediterranean, She is comfortable for two people to sail with the Pro Furl system making sail handling a simple matter, the 24v bow thruster is powerful and responsive.

The hull is made of 19mm thick fiberglass and the decks are of a Teak sandwich construction. The interior is solid Teak throughout with elegant wood carving and fine detailed workmanship.
