2006 Cape Cruiser 23 Venture $52,000 (St Petersburg, FL)

dave

We bought this boat for cruising into retirement. The Great Loop was to be our first adventure. Physical and health issues ended our adventure. This boat is ready to cruise. I have stored it on a rack inside a Hi & Dry marina since I have had it. I have always used non-ethanol gas. A 100 hour service has recently been done. I have only had the boat out in the water twice this year. I can deliver it in Florida.

With no great joy, I must report that Cocoon has been sold.

Hard to see it go huh? Sorry to see that happen but hopefully the new owner will give it a good home and keep it traveling. Keeping the spirit alive. That is what I have tried to do with my boat, though not fishing, spending time on the water and enjoying the peace. Honoring the memory and keeping up the hope.
