The Cabo Rico 34 is a 17,000-pound, William Crealock-designed cutter built for blue-water cruising.2:12 It features a long-keel hull with 5,800 pounds of ballast, an 11-foot beam, and a draft of less than 5 feet.2:12 The vessel achieves a capsize screening formula score of 1.71, indicating high stability for ocean passages.3:15 Structural integrity relies on a raised bulwark hull-to-deck joint and a fiberglass mast step bridge that elevates the mast butt above the bilge.3:51 The interior layout includes a two-stateroom, single-head configuration with extensive teak and holly woodwork.4:28 While the boat is underpowered in light air due to a low sail area-to-displacement ratio, it maintains a hull speed of 6.9 knots in heavier conditions.2:29 Construction quality is comparable to Hans Christian, Passport, and Slocum yachts, with a rot-free fiberglass substructure.5:41 A 1995 model recently listed for $147,000 featured a $50,000 refit including new Doyle sails, rigging, and a Yanmar 3J engine.6:32
