Want To Buy: Formosa 51 or CT-54 ketch project

[ColdWaterBlake]

Hello, my wife and I are very interested in finding a 1979-80's Formosa 51 or a CT-54
project boat to buy. We are looking to make this happen after April this year. there's not many options here in the PNW area. But we are looking all over, but the distance does add to the cost.


Thank you.

Hello, I may start a similar search for an old Ketch. Did you have any luck? Hard to shop during the Covid. Tom

Did you see the CT54 in Titusville?

Thanks for the link. That one needs a lifetime of work.

I'm not sure if you are still looking, but there is one for auction in Portland.

The auction says 'ended', not 'sold'. I wonder if it is still available.

That was the second time I've seen it up for auction at the same location. Maybe they aren't getting the reserve they are looking for. 3rd time's the charm?
