1985 Island Packet 278m

We all know what a quality boat Island Packet produces – here is a perfect example of a classic pocket cruiser built when Island Packet made one of the finest boats on the market.

SALTY BREEZE is a 1985 Island Packet 27 in excellent condition and maintained by experienced and knowledgeable owners. This pocket cruiser cruiser has currently been serviced and is ready to cruise the Bay, ICW or endure a Bluewater passage. The freshly varnished exterior and 6'2'' headspace are just the start of the incredible amenities and upgrades onboard.

ONLY 1,000 hrs total on the engine.

This is one of Island Packets most successful Pocket Cruisers. IP27's boast more space than other larger sailboats. They are capable of sleeping 4 to 6 people, with ample storage.  Her shallow draft makes her a great gunk-holer, and her sturdy construction makes her comfortable and safe for passage making.

The cabin features richly-oiled teak throughout, giving you the luxury of what sailing used to be like at an affordable price.

This is a well-cared for Island Packet Sloop Rig, 3’8” keel with a Yanmar Diesel Engine. Her interior offers traditional teak bulkheads and trim, “Teak and Holly Sole”, bulkhead drop table and berths for four to six. Galley includes an ice box, two burner propane stove, sink and dish storage.
