The Island Packet 40’s are sought after vessels for extended cruising adventures whether locally or crossing any ocean. They are renowned for their quality build and only quality components are used.

Kadens is an excellent example of an Island Packet 40. She is extremely well equipped and she looked after her owner on an extended cruise to French Polynesia via Mexico and back plus trips coastal trips north since then. Still regularly cruised.

With a bowthruster, a full suite of sails, recent standing rigging, recent watermaker, and a robust off-grid electrical system, she will look after her next owners well on their adventures too.
