Broker's Comments

This boat was built by Formosa but to the spec of a Kelly Peterson 46 with a Fin and Skeg. The paperwork is for a Formosa 44 but she is actually the same design layout and dimensions as the Peterson 46 though clearly not an original Kelly Peterson. However, she sails and performs the same and she has been in the same family for over 35 years and one of the sons presently owns the boat. The family are the second owners from new.

This boat is a project for someone who is hands on and looking for a blue-water cruising classic.

The owner has started to rip out the aft cabin which was damp but he does not have the time to finish off the work. Generally the boat needs a lot of updating and the decks are spongy, hence the price.

The boat was last out of the water 3 years ago.

These boat details are subject to contract.
Note: Offers on the asking price may be considered.
