The 1978 Formosa 39 Ketch is a classic, solidly built cruiser designed for extended voyages, offering spacious accommodations for up to eight people.
Its two-cabin layout comfortably sleeps six, making it ideal for family outings or small group trips. Built with a GRP/polyester hull and equipped with a steering wheel, the vessel has a dependable, recently overhauled 27 hp Yanmar diesel engine with about 100 hours of use since its last service.
With a fuel capacity of 200 liters and a fresh water tank holding 600 liters, this ketch is well-suited for longer passages. The deck is thoughtfully equipped with a bathing platform, deck shower, and fenders, ensuring comfort and convenience on board.
Inside, the Formosa 39 offers essential amenities, including a coolbox, gas hob, electric refrigerator, and a manual toilet, making it a comfortable home on the water.
The boat also features basic navigation tools such as a compass, echo sounder, fish finder, and GPS, along with a bilge alarm and manual bilge pump for safety.
Although the sails and rigging are in good working order, the electrical system is somewhat outdated and could benefit from an upgrade. With some attention to the electrical installation, this vessel will provide a reliable, enjoyable cruising experience for those who appreciate classic yacht design and functionality.
