We bought Baloo in February 2020 for a planned sabbatical as a family of 4 spanning June 2020 to June 2021. It was love at first sight. We happened to visit a similar 3 cabin Lipari 41 Evolution a few months prior during our stay in Tahiti, and since then had our eyes set on the exact boat. In February 2019, we flew to the South of France to look at ~10 previously identified boats in 5 days, 4 of which were Liparis. When we stepped on Baloo after a long day of boat visits, we knew she was the one: pristine condition, roomy 3-cabin version, fantastic layout and light-filled interior. We made an offer on Baloo that same day, had a full inspection the two following days and returned home with a signed contract in hand. We have never regretted our purchase.
We sailed Baloo from the South of France through the Mediterranean Sea, Gibraltar, the Canary Islands, to the Caribbean (with the ARC Family Rallye) and will be heading to the Bahamas before returning to life on land. Baloo has been our trusted home and family nest this past year and we trust you will enjoy her as much as we have.

Did I miss the REQUIRED price?

That would be helpful indeed - sorry about this. We are asking USD 338'000.

Hi Jeff. Where is the yacht now as your location is showing France? I did read your entire post and it appears you are en route to the Bahamas.

Hi Maple,
We are in the Bahamas indeed. Planning to arrive in Florida on June 1st, and would like to show/sell the boat there.
Best,
Jeff

just fyi- if your cat is still foreign flagged, you cannot offer it for sale to any US person while in US waters. or at least until you have paid the import duties on it. Just be careful as you'll probably have to consummate the deal offshore.
