41 Ketch

Classic lines define this 1978 Formosa 41 Ketch, a 12.32-meter vessel currently available for purchase in Lazio, Italy. Constructed in fiberglass, this boat offers a displacement of 14,000 kg and is powered by a single 87 HP Lombardini LDW2204MT engine with shaft drive. Significant maintenance has been completed recently to ensure seaworthiness. As of March 2025, the standing rigging was replaced, while both masts and their associated hardware underwent a thorough revision. The deck was also refinished with a new antiskid surface, and new hatches were installed for the bow, owner's cabin, and companionway. The vessel is offered in discrete condition, with some areas requiring further attention, including exterior wood treatment, internal wall cosmetic repairs, and the wind instrument station. The interior layout includes one owner's cabin, a single crew cabin, and a head with a separate shower stall that features dual access. The living area consists of a double dinette, providing four berths, including two single seats and a chart table that converts into an additional two berths. The galley is equipped with a three-burner gas stove, oven, sink, and an integrated cockpit refrigerator. This boat is well-suited for sailors looking for a restoration project with a strong, updated mechanical and structural base. Prospective buyers should note that while the sails are in good condition, there is ongoing interior and exterior cosmetic work to complete.
