Equipment and Upgrades
Hull #3 of only thirty-two Cabo Rico 34s built, this vessel has logged over 36,000 offshore miles during the past decade. Her voyages include the Bahamas, Cuba, Belize, Mexico, the Eastern Caribbean, Bermuda, the Azores, Madeira, Canary Islands, Cabo Verde, and transatlantic crossings. Unlike many “dock queens,” LA PEREGRINA has been actively cruised, professionally maintained, and consistently upgraded for serious passagemaking. The result is a yacht that feels truly ready for the next adventure. Whether your dream is island hopping in the Bahamas, sailing to Nova Scotia, or crossing oceans, this Cabo Rico 34 offers something increasingly rare in today’s market: genuine offshore pedigree with modern systems already in place.Her warm teak interior, secure center cockpit, cutter rig, modified full keel, and massive tankage create the kind of confidence offshore sailors search years to find. She is equally suited for a cruising couple, liveaboard life, or an owner seeking a capable yacht with a rich cruising story already written into her wake.As the current owner says:“She could easily cross the Atlantic in 2026… She’s full of diesel fuel, water, and propane. Where do you want to go?” RECENT UPGRADES & HIGHLIGHTSNew Raymarine Axiom 2 Pro 9 Chartplotter (2025)Standing & Running Rigging Inspected/Tuned (2025)Total Yanmar Engine Rebuild (2022)New Hydrovane Self-Steering System (2023)New Viking 4-Person Offshore Liferaft (2023)New Cabin Cushion Foam & Upholstery (2022–2023)New Raymarine AIS700 Class B AIS (2022)New Dodger & Bimini (2021)New Solar Panel (2021)New Mack Sails – Main, Genoa & Staysail (2019)Raymarine EV-400 Sail PilotRocna Vulcan Anchor with 200’ ChainAerogen Wind GeneratorCaribe RIB Dinghy with Yamaha 15hp OutboardKato Marine Dinghy DavitsOffshore Fishing Gear & Extensive Spare Parts InventoryVESSEL WALKTHROUGHStep below and you immediately understand why Cabo Rico yachts remain so beloved among offshore cruisers.
