only difference is in topsides-- they are both similar inside and coachhouse roof design is only observable difference, as far as i have seen. mine is a plain wrap yankee clipper formosa, bottom of line boat....sea tiger is a double raised cabin house and more wood carvings inside.....

I was on a Sea Tiger once that I really like the layout on. As I remember it had a head that was accessed by a door in the main salon...?

[zeehag]

all the ct/formosa/sea wolf boats with aft cockpit have that feature-- access to head from main saloon and from master cabin....

They are on our short list to inspect. We are in the looking stage ready to buy but have not found her yet ! Im 73 and feel with proper sail handeling gear almost any 40 to 50 ft boat should be able to be handled by any couple in normal health ! At least I think so LOL anyway if we see well maintained Formosa with the right stuff aboard we would jump on it !! Just My 2 cents Bob and Connie

formosas are not difficult to single sail..... even for old fogies with weak limbs..LOL
