Here is a little about what to expect with our newest model, the 359. We have 1 slot left that is available in the current build run if you want a 359 for the fall.

Legendary sailboat builder Island Packet introduces the new Island Packet 359, proving quality American-built cruising yachts are alive and well.

Our last 349 is on her way from St Petersburg to Newport RI. Harv and Jay this morning were 40 miles out of Atlantic City. This is the sun rise they had this morning.

Heavy Weather Performance Why Full Keel Stability Defines The Island Packet Sailing Experience
We balance the inherent tension between heavy-weather resilience and light-air agility by leveraging our signature Full Foil Keel. We examine how this integrated structural backbone minimizes leeway while dampening motion, ensuring the hull tracks with unwavering precision when conditions deteriorate. This engineering philosophy transforms offshore turbulence into a predictable, secure cruising experience.

Ready for a new home. MOLLY D is a well maintain IP-439. David and Linda were the first couple to order a 439. They enjoyed her every winter sailing south from the Northeast. David was a great owner being an engineer and retired Submarine builder. We love David and Linda and they are very special. Its time for MOLLY D to find a new home since they are no longer cruising her. This is the first 439 ever price less than 600K. You will find her ready to go and the factory will give the new owners great support getting to know MOLLY D. You can't go wrong with this cruising investment.

MAHOOTY is our first 459. She left St Petersburg on Saturday May 30th and arrived at the Bay Bridge Marina across the bay from Annapolis yesterday morning. Eleven days is not bad time. She is now berthed next to 439-24 RESOLUTE. Two great owners!

Our decks on the new 359 and 459 will now have Aqua Steel around the entire cap rail making it easy to mount hardware for us and owners.
