1995 Island Packet 40

The Island Packet 40 is a proven cruising design that builds on the success of its predecessor with increased tankage, greater sail area, and a longer waterline. The model delivers enhanced performance, additional storage, and extended range—qualities that have made it a respected choice for offshore sailing.

Island Breeze carries a two-cabin, two-head layout suited to extended cruising and liveaboard use. The interior features teak and holly throughout, providing both durability and warmth in the accommodations. A 50-horsepower Yammer diesel engine provides reliable auxiliary power.

Recent upgrades include new sails installed in 2024 and a comprehensively updated electrical system from 2024–2025 with solar panels and lithium house batteries. These improvements modernize the yacht's power generation and storage without altering the classic character of the design. The boat reflects thoughtful maintenance and is equipped for serious offshore passage-making.
