I inquired about the boat which was going for around 80k but it was in NZ. It would cost at least 25k to ship it. Had it been in FLA or Caribbean I might have bought it.

I figured if that boat were good enough for her to do the globe alone, we could live aboard and amateurly ply the USVI/BVI to SXM and back.
