That should be the majority of the items but there's lots of little things and pretty much every inch of the boat has been gone over since I've owned the boat.

We've greatly enjoyed the process of getting this boat ready to cruise and our time onboard since setting off. Now it's a classic case of our time is needed elsewhere so we are ready to pass her on to a new owner that is eager to get out and go sailing on a yacht that's ready to play.

The boat is located in San Carlos, México and is listed with La Paz Cruisers Supply. There is a local broker that is able to show the boat

Feel free to contact us about questions and we can explain the boat, her condition and features further.
