This 2001 Island Packet 420 is a 42-foot fiberglass sailing yacht with a well-maintained traditional design. The boat carries a fully battened mainsail with three reefing points and modern sails that provide both speed and comfort in a range of conditions. Her layout avoids unnecessary structural additions like arches or solar arrays, keeping the topsides clean and reducing windage. A 75-horsepower Yanmar diesel engine provides auxiliary power.
The yacht accommodates two cabins and two heads. A 12-volt generator system supports battery charging while maintaining an uncluttered deck layout. The boat was originally used on the Great Lakes and later cruised in Florida and the Bahamas.
Recent maintenance includes a professional bottom job completed in June 2025, which involved installation of a new cutlass bearing, shaft tuning, propeller treatment, and three coats of ablative. New lithium batteries rated at 750 amp hours were installed in November 2025.
