Quality in design. Quality in engineering. Quality in materials. Quality in manufacturing. Quality in service.
Every Island Packet from the original IP26 to the magnificent IP485 is the result of the consistent application and continuing evolution of this philosophy, which affects everything from the initial design concept through the manufacturing process, into the warranty period, and beyond. This philosophy helps to explain how Island Packet has grown to be a world leader in the design and manufacture of cruising yachts in less than a quarter of a century. It also helps to explain why Island Packet yachts are respected and admired by discerning sailors everywhere.
At Island Packet, We Take You Cruising™. We understand that the definition of 'performance' in the cruising context goes well beyond boat speed and must include safe, simple, predictable, and seakindly handling as well. That's why every model from Island Packet Yachts is designed, engineered, and built to meet these exacting requirements. That's why every model embodies a host of proven design and construction features that have evolved from years of boatbuilding experience and via feedback from thousands of owners. And while Island Packets have now established their cruising capabilities by compiling millions of sailing miles around the globe, they've also proven their performance potential by winning a showcase full of trophies from offshore races and regattas throughout the United States and Europe.
Naval architect Bob Johnson, CEO of Island Packet Yachts, designs sailboats that combine key features such as a powerful yet versatile and easily-managed cutter rig, a one piece Full Foil Keel® hull form, expansive accommodations, innovative features and stunning good looks. The results are the superior seakeeping, safety, stability, speed, comfort, and value that make Island Packet Yachts America's Cruising Yacht Leader™.
