Thanks Craig.  That's reassuring to hear you say that about the 3300 hrs on the Volvo, because there are many other nice upgrades on the 1999 I am attracted to.  And sounds like the rigging replacement may not be as expensive as I imagined.   Anyway, I will keep an open mind next week.  No expectations--just gonna have a nice vacation on Martinique and, who knows, might end up with a boat...
