Formosa Yacht for Charter

From $400,000 USD

Key specifications

  • Length 59.99m (197ft)
  • Builder Benetti SpA

This 60-metre luxury superyacht has an unusual layout that seamlessly connects the inside with the outside to help you make the most of a sunshine charter.

You’ll find spacious accommodation, a sun deck Jacuzzi, a cinema and a private observation deck on the FORMOSA yacht, which also boasts a glass elevator to help you move easily between each deck.

Interior Design & Engineering

Launched in 2015, this 60-metre luxury superyacht is equipped with stabilisers at anchor to ensure you get a comfortable sleep.

The interior of the FORMOSA motor yacht is by Sinot Yacht Design and features lots of plush, cream furnishings contrasted by black and gold accents and natural textures. Large windows offer plenty of light throughout.

Up to 12 guests can be accommodated during your FORMOSA yacht charter. The owner’s suite is located on the upper deck and boasts ocean views from the oversized bed, plus its own study and private terrace.

Two VIP cabins are located on the main deck, each with marble en suites, while a further two doubles and a twin cabin can be found on the lower deck.

Yacht Facilities & Entertainment

You’ll spend hours relaxing on the sun deck of the FORMOSA yacht, where you’ll find a Jacuzzi, sofas and plenty of space to stretch out across sun loungers - and awnings to provide a break from the sun.

If you want to sit back and take in the uninterrupted views, head up to the observation deck and flop across the bright orange seating and inviting day beds.

When evening approaches, you can enjoy an aperitif on the large seating area on the main deck aft or head into the main salon to relax on the sofas. You can choose between dining at the alfresco table or in the formal dining room that leads on from the main salon.

Toys and Crew

A crew of 15 will ensure your FORMOSA yacht charter is exceptional.

There’s an abundance of water toys on this luxury superyacht, including a slide from the sun deck and a climbing wall. You’ll find multiple personal watercraft that you can take out for a spin, and if you’re IKO licensed, you can use the kitesurf equipment. If you want to try the Jetsurf, there’s an instructor on-hand to help teach you.

Other water toys include a canoe kayak and SUPs, plus a range of inflatable toys that includes a banana, donuts and an inflatable sailing boat. If you want to get the adrenaline pumping, you can play with the wakeboards, ski boards and knee boards or try the HoverBoard and Flyboard.

When you need a more mindful activity, you can go scuba diving, float in the anti-jellyfish pool or have a go at fishing or spearfishing.

You can easily pop ashore to extend your exploration to dry land thanks to FORMOSA’s two tenders.

  • Sundeck Jacuzzi
  • Upper-deck Owner’s suite

“Absolute Perfection!” From start to finish, our experience with this organization was absolutely perfect. They were professional, polite, friendly, accommodating and they facilitated an  amazing   experience ! We booked a 4 hour sunset trip to the arch, and surrounding areas for 5 people. With 4 young women, you can only imagine how many photos we wanted to take. Janett assisted us by taking SO many wonderful photos, telling us how to pose, capturing our best angles and all the while supplying us with the perfect drinks to keep the party going! Captain Juan was a gentleman, and clearly knew how to navigate to the best spots around. They had a stand up paddle board for us to use, as well as different things to float on in the water. Janett provided us with some excellent food that kept us energized for all the fun! The entire trip with Cabo Yacht Life was a delight, and for any future trips I may take to Cabo, they would be my go to activity! — Trip Advisor, 5-stars
“Amazing charter experience!” From the moment I inquired until we stepped off the boat I received the most amazing service. Joseph was so accommodating especially because there was a hurricane on my initial charter date. He made sure to communicate after the storm and made sure to get us out on the boat the next day, safely might I add. When we got to the boat the experience was so amazing. Eva and Juan were both so friendly and attentive. Eva took some amazing pictures of my friends and I. Unfortunately, several of us became motion sick however, they immediately accommodated us and made sure we were good. The boat was clean and I still enjoyed myself. Eva even used her phone for the music we liked to ensure I as the birthday girl could use my phone for pictures and videos. I would highly recommend you use them for your private charter needs. — Trip Advisor, 5-stars

The dynamism of the SEABOB develops its special appeal under the water. The watercraft can be steered down into the depths simply by applying light pressure. Man and machine in unison, darting around nimbly.

Impressive diving depths of 15 meters can be programmed to suit individual requirements via the on-board electronics. A safety cut-off feature reliably ensures that the selected diving depth is not exceeded. Dive into the fascinating underwater world.

**Available for rent ($100 per hour)

**(Sea Bobs are only available on the 52 foot yacht opulence, due to the size of the yacht.)

The “Attessa IV” arrives in Los Cabos, the luxury yacht worth 250 million dollars

In the port of Los Cabos, the “Attessa IV” stands out, a luxurious yacht valued at 250 million dollars, with its own spa and helipad

Los Cabos.- Last weekend the ”  Attessa IV  ” arrived at the port of Los Cabos, Baja California Sur, a large  luxury yacht  valued at  250 million dollars , considered one of the most expensive vessels of its kind in all the world.

formosa yacht cabo

The ostentatious yacht, which belongs to billionaire  Dennis Washington , stands out for its large size that even has a helicopter, which undoubtedly represents a spectacle on the docks of  Los Cabos .

ARABMONEY OFFICIAL™ on Instagram: “Amazing Yacht ⚓️ ATTESSA IV Go Follow  @Secrets2Success ✨ - Photo by @stephen_n_miami #attessaIV #notarabmoney … |  파워보트, 항해, 유람선

The luxury of the Attessa IV

The ”  Attessa IV  ” has 2,600 square meters of usable space, and is capable of accommodating 36 guests and 21 crew members in its luxurious enclosures. 

As if that were not enough, this yacht has its own spa, a pool on the upper deck, a karaoke room, a helipad, and even an elegant gallery of works of art and glassware inside. 

The ship, which is one of the most expensive and luxurious in the world at a value of  250 million dollars , was created in 1999, and then rebuilt in 2010 by businessman Dennis Washington, with the design process in charge of his wife, Phyllis Washington. 

Since then, the “Attessa IV” has traveled through the most luxurious and exclusive ports in the world, its most recent destination being Cabo San Lucas, where it remains without it being known at the moment who is enjoying its ostentation.

About its owner, the American  Dennis Washington , it should be noted that he owns the companies  Washington Group International  and  Seaspan Marine Corporation , and has an estimated fortune of 6 billion dollars, which makes him 83 of the 100 richest men of the world, according to  Forbes  magazine. 

Undoubtedly, the arrival of the expensive yacht to the port of Baja California Sur shows the tourist reactivation that is already taking place in  Los Cabos , an important tourist destination that is visited every year by distinguished people from all over the world, a situation that was seriously affected in 2020 due to the Covid-19 pandemic.

Owners of $41 million superyacht agree to pay $100,000 after dropping anchor and damaging coral reef in Hawaii

  • Owners of a $41 million superyacht will pay a $100,000 fine after damaging hundreds of coral colonies in Hawaii. 
  • The yacht, the Formosa, dropped anchor onto coral, breaking 431 coral colonies across more than 11,000 square feet, Hawaii's Department of Land and Natural Resources said. 
  • The yacht's chain inflicted much of the damage by swinging through the coral bed, according to the state.
  • Visit Business Insider's homepage for more stories .

Insider Today

Owners of a 197-foot superyacht will pay a hefty fine after damaging coral colonies in Hawaii's Kailua Bay in 2018, the state's Department of Land and Natural Resources announced this week.

The owners — Formosa Wealth Management Group, whose yacht also bears the Formosa name — settled with the state to the tune of $100,000, which will fund the restoration and management of coral reefs in West Hawaii, the department said in a statement. The Formosa appears to be up for sale with an asking price north of $41 million.

The damage occurred in October 2018, the announcement said, when the yacht dropped anchor onto coral, breaking and damaging about 431 coral colonies and approximately 150 square feet of live rock. That constituted a violation of Hawaii Administrative Rules, but the state determined it would be difficult to prosecute the Formosa's owners because the vessel operates under a foreign flag, which many yacht owners do for tax purposes. 

All told, biologists estimate that the Formosa's anchor impacted coral across an area of more than 11,000 square feet, the department said.

Nikki Smith, an aquatic biologist with the department's Division of Aquatic Resources, said in the announcement that much of the damage came from the anchor's chain "swinging through the bed," adding that the impact was "quite extensive."

After surveying the damage, biologists from the division took to repairing the affected coral. They went on three dives to reposition more than 50 large colonies and stabilize more than 250 coral fragments.

Watch: The Great Barrier Reef is at a critical tipping point and could disappear by 2050

History of Formosa

Formosa Boat Building Company Ltd., often acclaimed for its exceptional craftsmanship and attention to detail, was established in 1963 in Taiwan. Its inception marked a significant leap in the Taiwanese maritime industry as it was among the first few companies in the region instrumental in building boats entirely from fibreglass. Formosa's reputation for constructively solid, well-crafted, and highly reliable yachts earned it an impeccable status within the international boating community. A wide range of boats under the Formosa name does justice to its well-deserved reputation for quality and performance.

As the company grew, it began receiving orders for larger boats and soon expanded its portfolio to include mid-sized yachts. Formosa's creations range in size from 30 feet to an impressive 70 feet, recognised for their ruggedness and unparalleled sea-keeping abilities. The brand's classic selection is identified by their distinct clipper bow and their graceful sheer lines, reflecting the timeless appeal of traditional sailing yachts.

In the years that followed, Formosa made a massive breakthrough into the global yachting market with increased exporting to North America and Europe. The transition from a local boat-building brand to an internationally distinguished name occurred due to several alliances with celebrated naval architecture firms. Today, the company still operates from Taiwan, cementing its position as one of the most classic boatbuilders in the East, and continues to deliver through its excellence and quality, boats that resonate with precision and aesthetic brilliance.

Which models do Formosa produce?

Formosa produce a range of boats including the Formosa 56 Pilothouse Ketch . For the full list of Formosa models currently listed on TheYachtMarket.com, see the model list in the search options on this page.
