Where and What?

So where is Pura Vida and what do we do with her?....

Ruth and I spend most weekends, holidays and vacations aboard Pura Vida (PV).  In fact, approximately 47 or 48 weekends per year, the week of Thanksgiving, most of our two weeks we are off during Christmas and usually a couple weeks each summer are spent aboard.  When I say aboard, I mean we sleep on the boat, sometimes in our slip or anchored out or cruising to various anchorages or marinas.   When at home, we usually sail at least once per weekend.

Making the journey down the ICW near Lafitte, LA, on the maiden voyage to Port Arthur, TX.

Pura Vida is a 36 foot, center cockpit, Beneteau sailing vessel.  I purchased her on August 29, 2012, in New Orleans, the day before Hurricane Isaac blew into the city.  I know.... not too smart to purchase a sailboat when a hurricane is blowing in.  However, I waited as long as possible before signing final papers.   I was in jeopardy of losing my down payment, if I didn't sign on that date. However, I had already secured insurance for $10,000 more than the purchase price.  So, I chanced losing my $7500 down payment, gaining $10K if lost to Isaac or gaining a very nice boat if no damage was done. What would you do?
