Island Packet Yachts

America's Cruising Yacht Leader

Five Boat of the Year awards and two for Best Value attest to the ideals that set Island Packet apart.  Recognized by widely read and respected Blue Water Sailing magazine as being among the ranks of the world's Premier Sailboats for 2008, Island Packet yachts feature an unbeatable combination of high quality workmanship, common sense and simplicity in design.

Estero
The Estero has been created in response to market demands for a smaller Island Packet model that offers all of the quality, comforts and capabilities synonymous with Island Packet's larger yachts, with increased emphasis on ease of use and innovative new features. This new 36 footer delivers on all counts, with a new look that blends the classic style of their earlier models with that of their latest designs.
IP 370
Marking a notable evolution in the Island Packet family, the all new 370 offers refined keel shapes and a higher aspect ratio rig for increased performance, new rudder shaft and blade geometry for enhanced control under sail and power, and a watertight bulkhead for added security.
SP Cruiser
There are two really good reasons to consider the SP Cruiser from Island Packet - November and February. That's because she offers smooth sailing in all kinds of weather, and very little use for your foul weather gear. Learn more in Hellier's exclusive SP Cruiser Model Profile and Sounding's article on motorsailers (reprinted with permission).
IP 460
Island Packet's latest design, the aft cockpit 460 combines the superior comfort, ease of use and safety and seakeeping qualities that are the hallmark of every Island Packet, along with the stunning good looks of its classic design. This world cruiser is capable of long distance days offshore, but is equally at home exploring coastal waters and for living aboard. Check Cruising World's First Look Video for more.
IP 465
Brand new for 2008, the center cockpit 465 offers exceptional livability and practical cruising features. The large center cockpit provides more than just a comfortable place for your crew to congregate. It provides a safe working area to perform all the necessary adjustments underway. Take a virtual tour with Cruising World's First Look Video.
IP 485
Island Packet's flagship 485 provides enormous living space, enough storage to hold provisions for a circumnavigation, enough sail to speed you comfortably to your destination and the convenience of managing it all from the cockpit. Building on the qualities that distinguish the Island Packet line, the IP485 combines superior comfort, seakeeping, ease of use and safety in a world class cruiser.
