The Pura Vida

The Pura Vida is a large cabin cruiser boat owned by Charles Kemp. The Kemp family regularly takes the boat out onto Creel Bay for recreation.

Officer Appreciation Day
Charles Kemp maintains a yearly tradition of hosting a party on the Pura Vida for police officers who recently received special accommodations. Charles sees the event as a way of giving back to the community. In season 2, Police Officer Ángel Hernandez pulls over Charles Kemp for driving his Porsche recklessly, but Police Officer Richard Hooper pressures him into only giving him a warning because of the longstanding relationship between Charles and the police department.

Connection to the Sunset Murders
When Ángel is invited to Officer Appreciation Day following the reckless driving incident, he finds several bottles of scopolamine in the bathroom of the boat. When he asks Charles about it, Charles explains that the pills are for seasickness. Later, lab tests reveal large quantities of scopolamine in the Sunset Murder victims' bodies but Ángel doesn't remember finding the pill bottles because he was very drunk at the party. He later has a dream in which Charles Kent is driving them towards the setting sun. In the dream, Ángel tells Charles that he feels sick. Charles tells him to take something for it and Ángel finds a pill bottle in the glove compartment. When wakes up the dream, he feels unsettled but can't decipher the dream's meaning. Before he is able to discuss the dream with Rosa, he is killed in the Applebee's Massacre.
