2004 Island Packet 420

The Island Packet 420 is a two-cabin cruising yacht built to balance seaworthiness with living space. At 42 feet with a 14.25-foot beam, she offers the stability and safety that define the class, along with the comfort needed for extended time at sea or anchor. Power comes from a single 75-horsepower Yanmar diesel engine. The design earned recognition as Best Full Size Cruiser in Cruising World magazine's 2000 Boat of the Year competition.

The accommodation plan centers on an owner's stateroom forward with an en-suite head, while the second cabin is positioned aft with its own private entry to a day-head on the port side. This layout provides practical separation and privacy for cruising.

This 2004 example carries newer Quantum sails and Raymarine electronics, and shows approximately 2,900 engine hours. Equipment includes a bow thruster, generator, watermaker, air conditioning, solar panels, and an electric toilet in the owner's cabin—systems chosen to support extended cruising independence.
