On a Personal Note...I left
Newport Beach, California*in April of 1997 on a 43'*Peterson*Sailboat for a 2-year Sebatical and arrived at Coco Beach 2 years later. I had 'Lived' in Coco for the next 2 years before dedicating my life to Purifying
Water (
Commercial Water Purification, Chlorine Free Pool, UV Water Purifier). The beginning of last year, my wife Carmen and I decided to purchase*another sailboat and after carefully evaluated over 50-Cruising sailboats between*Panama*to*Guatemala, we easily decided on 'Sanctuary', not only because She was already 'Imported' into*Costa Rica*saving us 60% ($$$) forImport*Taxes*as well as that all of her AnnualTaxes*<apx. $300/year> were and are paid and up to date. It was obvious to both of us that 'Sanctuary' was the Right Sailboat as well as She is considered to be one of the Best Built, Strongest and Most Comfortably Reliable Cruising Sailboats built. The Added Bonus was Her Huge 7' x 7' Aft-Cabin Master Suite
Bed which is big enough both of us to Stretch out and Large enough to invite a Big*Family*with room to spare.This was one of several reasons why we had decided to*purchase*her last year February and after investing 8-tedious and demanding months including well over $80,000 in upgrades,*electronics, etc. a year later, we both have decided to opt for a larger sailboat in order for us to Share this Amazing Experience with a few 'special' friends for weekend cruises and so, we just recently decided to
purchase a 48'*Sloop*which unlike the Ease of Single-handling 'Sanctuary', requires 2-3 Helpers Topside but for me, Life should be Simple however, our Partners 'for' Life sometimes prefers the option to Entertain a few close Friends. Cest la Vie.I can say this, for 'Sanctuary', her Size, Ease of 'Single' Handling, Extensive*Navigation*Equipment, Comfort and*Safety*(1,200' Forward Looking Sonar, Central*Air Conditioning,*Radar,*Garmin*'Touch Screen' 5208 GPS/Chart Plotter, etc. -*
http://sanctuarycr.info/SanctuaryExpenses-2012.pdf*), is one of the Best Built, Best Equipped, Most Comfortable Sailboats in her Class.As far as her as a*Charter*Sailboat, we can recommend a very qualified*Captain, 'Popeen' who I have known since first arriving in Coco Beach back in July of 1999 and of whom I Trust Implicitly. A Moring-Ball is always available and is quite easy to relocate. Popeen's prefers a Crew of two who can easily Operate 'Sanctuary' for a minimal fee (apx. $25/hour or $50 when there are Guests for a Three-Hour-Tour) and will also Cater to each of your Individual Passengers needs. His Wife prepares the*food*(simple sandwiches), snacks and Non-Alcoholic Refreshments for the Day at their home which is Included in the
Price of the Ticket. Popeen grew-up in Coco (45-years) and has enough Contacts (Retail Stores, Hotels and Friends) to sell Tickets (which are labeled with the person responsible for making the Reservation) to the Cruising Guests for between 15-20% (higher Commission paid provides 'Priority' Booking). The 'Paid' Passenger then brings their Ticket to the Shore where they are then Transported out to 'Sanctuary' where the*Captain*retains a portion of their Ticket (stub) and is later presented to each of the various Booking Outlets (Stores and Hotels) who then reimburses the Customer's payment less their Commission to the Boat Owner.Projected*Income*for just 6-passengers twice-daily, can produce (after commissions), a gross profit of $500 ($50 each) per Excursion (2- Excursions daily), less $50 (per Excursion) for the
Captain including Crew and overall cost ofmaintenance*for the 3-hour Tour. Weekends are the busiest and you could effectively generate a very comfortable monthly*income*and the best part of 'Sanctuary' is Her Size which could Comfortably accommodate between 12-14 Adults.'Sanctuary' is now residing at the Puntarenas Yacht Club (
www.PuntarenasYachtClub.com) where She can also be Chartered from and of where our Private
Captain can also help set-up your 'Charter Business' from there if you prefer this location over Coco Beach. We both prefer Puntarenas Yacht Club over Coco Beach because of the Amenities that the CR Yacht Club provides and for only $400/month including a Floating*Dockwith Fresh*Water, CRYC it's a Nice Place in deed.If you are seriously considering a truly Remarkable and Beautiful Lifestyle 'Sailing' and one that will provide you with a Comfortable
Income and Many Years of Pleasure (Unforgettable Memories), then 'Sanctuary' is exactly what you've been looking for. I can say that if it wasn't for our Obligation to provide Potable Water to over 55-Countries worldwide, Carmen and I would be spending more of our Free Time 'Cruising' through Life and as my father use to say, "If I only knew then what I know now.", we would hope to Retire - 'yesterday'...
Wishing you All the Very Best 'for' Life,
Stephen & Carmen
