From the dock you will notice that Island Packet Cat 35 hull design features a center pod section, the manufacturer calls this protuberance its Deltapod.

Approaching "Second Wind"; you get an appreciation of the love and attention the owners have bestowed upon her. It's the little details that separate a fine vessel, one which is in very good condition, from an average boat. Boarding "Second Wind", with the assist of its custom step, you will have no doubt that you have boarded a fine vessel.

Standing at the bow, on the bridgedeck, you'll feel very safe because of the solid life rails and stanchions that extends across the front and along the sides - all the way to the stern.
