This clean and well maintained Island Packet 29 features the optional cutter rig, and is ready to go cruising.  She is powered by a very economical and reliable 18HP Yanmar with only 2007 hours and a 3 blade feathering prop. 

In 2012 she received a new bimini top, new jib from Schurr Sails, dinghy davits, bottom paint, peekaboo blinds, LED lighting throughout, and gorgeous fresh varnish.  

If you are in the market for a cruising sailboat you will be truly impressed with the amount of volume this 29' pocket cruiser offers.  With almost an 11' beam, and 6' 4" headroom she is very roomy below.  Her cockpit is massive, even when compared to many 32-34' boats.    

The Island Packet build quality is far above the competition.  This boat can take you anywhere! 

 

Descriptions

Walk Through

The forward cabin has a V-berth with filler, storage drawers under and hanging locker. To port is the roomy head with vanity, sink, large, fully enclosed shower, folding bench seat, opening hatch and port. The main salon follows with port and starboard opposing settees, one of which converts to a double berth and the other can be utilized as a single berth. There is a bulkhead-mounted fold-away table, teak cabinets and bookshelves and large storage areas under each settee.  The massive aft quarter berth can easily sleep two, with teak shelf outboard, storage under and overhead port light. The fold-down navigation table is neatly tucked away forward of the aft quarter berth.  The classic teak and holly cabin sole and fine teak joinery along with plenty of light and ventilation provided by several opening hatches and ports makes the interior feel warm and inviting. The U-shaped galley is well equipped with a large refrigerator, tons of storage, LPG range and a deep sink with hot and cold water.
