    La Paloma is a tough, blue water boat with plenty of quality cruising gear onboard. Owner refit. Quality blue water parts, finished and available for sale in late February or March. Recently lived aboard and sailed from the Caribbean to Corpus Christi Texas. Had plans to cruise the Caribbean in the fall but decided to stay. Now will sell the boat and get a smaller bay sailer. Coast Guard Documented Vessel and a great value for someone looking for a reliable, safe cruising boat that could go anywhere. Still doing some refitting, varnishing etc., with haulout and bottom-job planned for February. Boat is solid with no soft spots on deck, complete West System Blister job done in 2000. Topside and Deck are Awlgrip but in need of repainting to look super sharp and needs repair of a few scratches here and there. Can have repainting done or deduct $ 5000 from sales price as allowance.
