The 1990 Island Packet 35 is a highly regarded cruising sailboat known for its robust construction, comfortable motion, and exceptional seaworthiness. A product of Island Packet Yachts, a Florida-based builder renowned for its commitment to quality and traditional design, the IP35 has earned a loyal following among sailors who prioritize safety and comfort for coastal and offshore adventures

Island Packets are celebrated for their "Full Foil Keel," which encapsulates the ballast within the hull structure, eliminating keel bolts and associated risks. The hull and deck are joined on an inward flange and bonded and bolted, creating a strong and watertight monocoque structure. The use of high-quality materials and attention to detail in construction are hallmarks of the brand, contributing to their reputation for durability and longevity.

Sailing Performance and Handling:

The Island Packet 35 is not designed to be a racing yacht. Its strengths lie in its stability, comfortable motion, and ease of handling, particularly in challenging conditions. The cutter rig allows for a balanced sail plan that can be easily managed by a cruising couple. Owners report that the boat heaves-to comfortably and tracks well. While not the fastest upwind, its performance is respectable for a heavy-displacement cruising boat, and it truly shines on reaches and downwind runs, especially in moderate to heavy air. Its substantial displacement and full keel contribute to a seakindly ride, minimizing pounding and inspiring confidence.
