Description
Overview
Presenting an exceptional and rare opportunity to own a legendary blue-water cruiser with a unique history of low usage and meticulous structural care. Designed by the iconic Bill Crealock, this 2002 Pacific Seacraft 40 Cutter has spent a significant portion of its life protected from the elements, leaving its core structural components—including the gelcoat, mast, and interior—in beautiful condition.
For the sailor looking to outfit a world-class vessel with their own choice of modern navigation electronics, Paloma represents a pristine, highly solid canvas ready for its next great chapter.
A Proven History of Preservation
Paloma has been uniquely preserved throughout her life, ensuring far less environmental wear than a typical 2002 vessel:
-
The Early Years (Annapolis, MD): Spent her early seasons on the waters of the Chesapeake, but was strictly dry-docked and professionally shrink-wrapped at the conclusion of every single season.
-
The California Hibernation (2014 – 2026): Shipped overland to California in 2014, she was safely dry-docked for 12 years while her owners focused on running a demanding business.
-
Recent Updates (2025/2026): Re-evaluating their path and relocating to British Columbia, the owners have freshly stepped the mast and invested heavily in bringing her mechanical and structural standing up to standard.
Key Highlights & Recent Upgrades
-
Rigging & Spars: Freshly stepped mast in great condition, completely outfitted with brand new standing rigging and new chain plates.
-
Hull & Gelcoat: The exterior gelcoat shines in great condition. The bottom has been treated to a brand new barrier coat, offering ultimate hull protection.
-
Engine & Mechanical: Powered by a reliable 56 HP Yanmar diesel engine boasting exceptionally low hours.
-
Sails & Accommodations: The sails remain in excellent condition, and the classic Pacific Seacraft interior wood and upholstery have been wonderfully preserved.
The Canvas for Your Ultimate Cruiser
While Paloma is structurally excellent and mechanically sound, her 12-year dry dock means her electronics are dated. She is being offered at a price that allows the next owner to install a personalized, next-generation suite of navigation electronics and complete minor, miscellaneous upgrades to match their exact cruising expectations.
