EXTRA, EXTRA

This beautiful detailed boat can include a slip at Paradise Village Marina in Nuevo Vallarta, MX.  Slips are scarce and waiting lists can be long. A slip includes access to all amenities at the adjacent Paradise Village Resort and Spa. Amenities include full beach access with palapas, waiter service, three swimming pools, waterslides and numerous restaurants including the Copan Sunset Sky Bar for fantastic sunsets. Services in the marina are potable water direct to the boat, weekly free pump-outs, cable TV, WiFI and fire suppression stations. 

The area also has a fully stocked grocery store, a shopping mall with a laundromat and more great restaurants.   The Vallarta Yacht club is just down the dock or just down the street.  Puerto Vallarta International Airport is only 15-20 minutes away. Beautiful anchorages are all over Banderas Bay.  Recently, a professional race officer from the East coast was here for a North American championship regatta and said : "this is probably the best sailing bay n the world."   This boat could be a great liveaboard and a great boat to cruise the Sea of Cortez or as Jacques Cousteau said, "The Aquarium of the World"  The seller is very motivated, make an offer. Comes with portable 110 air conditioning unit.

I’d love to arrange a time for you to come see the Mason 43 in person. Feel free to reach out with any questions or to schedule a viewing. Don’t miss out on the chance to own such a stunning and capable vessel!. And live in Paradise, both figuratively and realistically.  Resort tour included.
