At the end of the year we are selling our beloved Blue Pearl
Why !?!?
short answer : Because we are not done yet ! 😉
Towards the end of this year we are sailing most likely to St Martin via Colombia , Jamaica , Cuba etc and do this traveling thing for a few more years as we love it , but we are ready for a change and a Cat is high on the list
Lets do the most important part first : Asking price USD $140.000. (Please note: Price is USD excl. any Import duties if applicable)
Blue Pearl has not given us any major issues over the last 48 months and I do not expect to have any issues . Normal maintenance is kept up as we live on our boat sailing oceans and we can’t afford not to keep her in great shape
