The Formosa Yachts 51 is a William Garden-designed long-keel staysail ketch built by Formosa Yachts and Formosa Boat Building Co. Ltd. between 1972 and 1984, with an LOA of 15.5 meters and a displacement of 23,586 kg. The design also served as the basis for the Hudson Force 50 and Goldcoast Offshore 50. Aboard *Sailing Miss Lone Star*, the Formosa Yachts 51 *Miss Lone Star* sailed down the Baja Peninsula, encountering 25-to-28-knot winds and disorganized seas during a 36-hour passage toward Magdalena Bay, where a blown fuse caused a total loss of the house battery bank.7:08 The crew hand-steered the vessel and navigated into Magdalena Bay under low-visibility conditions using radar and the start battery. *Miss Lone Star* sustained structural damage to its bowsprit, specifically a cracked Kranz iron, during a storm in the Bay of Banderas.11:49 The crew later addressed a rigging error on the bowsprit where welders had placed the kronziron tabs incorrectly, requiring custom fabrication to align pins and holes.4:07 While sailing from Sardinia to Gaeta, Italy, through the Bonifacio Passage, the autopilot struggled with wind shifts, forcing the crew to hand-steer and motor-sail.6:30 The crew of *Miss Lone Star* also experienced an engine failure when the fuel alarm was silenced, requiring them to bleed the engine and polish fuel while drifting.7:44
