    Ok, this is An INCREDIBLE Bluewater Sailboat AND this video is her debut listing! And while we don't typically review sailboats in this price range (a first at this level), we were contacted by the owner, Gary, who asked us to showcase her and announce her being for sale. We were honored and even more so when we saw this beautiful Cabo Rico 38. We had never been on one, though we heard they are nice. Guess what? They are WICKED nice and this one is off the charts. Gary bought her 3 years ago and has done a ton of work to her and made lots of upgrades (all of this is listed below). He found her in Marion, MA, sailed her up to Maine, did a ton of work, then sailed her to the Bahamas. Of note, this CR 38 has also sailed around the world. The proof of her seaworthiness is in the pudding, as they say. She has done it all and is now ready for more. Once you go through the list of what has been done, you'll see why. There is nothing left to do but replace the lifelines (as we note in the video) and go sailing - and not necessarily in that order.
    Honestly, we loved this boat so much and we really hope we get a chance to go sailing on her.
    She is located at Knight Marine, Rockland, ME, and her mast is being stepped in about a week or so (as of the premier of this video). As Canadian Ken mentions in the opener, we have NO financial interest in this boat whatsoever. We don't get paid by the seller for our services, either. This allows us to remain unbiased and to call it as we see it. If you feel like supporting us, you can at www.patreon.com/boatfoolssailing. You can sign up for free or for just a few bucks a month.
    If you’re interested in this beauty, please contact Gary directly for more information at: garyfreeburg@hotmail.com
    Many thanks for watching!

    I've never had the privilege to tour one in person, but every single one that i have come across on the market has impressed me with the fit and finish of the build. That really is an impressive interior ... not a single sign of any water ingress in all of her years. I just wish that it was in my budget, so that i could scoop her up.

Yep guys I think stunner is the correct word for this boat. I'll be surprised if it doesn't sell in a couple of days. Wow the exterior is just as nice as the interior. I really like the wood accent on the bow. Ya know, I have a birthday coming up the 3rd of next month and I can't think of a nicer present.

You can redo the lifelines in an afternoon for well under $1K.

    You guys did a nice topside tour but for the said price I would need to see other important areas to consider, if I was even in the zone for buying. How does the underside look. Blisters, stress cracks, scratches? How about all through hull fittings. Any needing replacement? Running a feel test over all of the stays for cracking? It would need a total replace of complete cable if a frayed cable was the case. How is the post for the rudder? Look for delamination in that area. Stuffing box and prop shaft coming out of the hull...how does that size up. You got a boat here with allot of years of experience. Wear and tear does play a part in the outcome. Price being considered, I would think, commands attention given.

      I have actually heard, that it is so named, because of the wind passing, while you haul your 50 pound anchor manually. Just joking. The Danish word is anchor winch, literally translated to English. How much simpler that would be for people, instead of such a crazy Norse rooted word, and after all, Denmark were the second greatest merchant seafaring nation for centuries, and only second to Netherlands. It could have been worse: You could have run with a Dutch derived word in English!
