Description

“Stella Maris” is a stunning example of a 1988 Cabo Rico 38.  The Cabo Rico 38 is a well-crafted, highly sought-after bluewater cruiser that turns heads in every harbor. Renowned for its elegant lines and robust construction, this classic sailing yacht has been well cared for throughout the years, reflecting pride of ownership and a commitment to preserving its legacy.

Sailing Performance

The Cabo Rico 38 is as capable as it is beautiful. Designed by the legendary W.I.B. Crealock, this cutter-rigged cruiser offers a smooth, stable ride in a variety of conditions. With a moderate displacement and a full keel, it tracks confidently through the water, making it a joy to helm whether you're coastal cruising or crossing oceans. 

Aboard the Cabo Rico 38

Step aboard, and you'll immediately feel the timeless craftsmanship that defines this yacht. The deck layout is practical and secure, with wide side decks and well-placed handholds that inspire confidence at sea. The cockpit, sheltered by a sturdy dodger, is both comfortable and functional, ideal for long watches or relaxing at anchor.

Below deck, warm and inviting teak joinery creates a cozy atmosphere, while the thoughtful layout maximizes living and storage space. The salon includes a spacious settee and a folding table, ideal for meals or chart work. The U-shaped galley is equipped with ample counter space, a deep sink, and plenty of storage for extended voyages. The forward cabin offers a comfortable V-berth, and the compostable head, located just aft, is well-sized and practical. Additional berths in the main salon provide flexibility for accommodating guests or family, while abundant storage throughout ensures a clutter-free living experience.

Well-Cared-For Legacy

“Stella Maris” has been lovingly maintained, with regular updates to keep her in good condition. From her durable topsides to the detailed woodwork below, every detail speaks to the care she has received over the years. She is ready to continue her journey with her next owner, offering a unique combination of beauty, capability, and comfort.

Whether you're looking for a dependable cruiser for extended passages or a head-turning classic for local adventures, the 1988 Cabo Rico 38 stands as a testament to timeless design and enduring quality.
