2008 ISLAND PACKET 465
A superbly equipped and exceptionally well-maintained example of the highly capable Island Packet 465. Designed by Bob Johnson and built in Florida, this 2008 model was launched in 2009 and has been extensively upgraded between 2021–2025 for serious bluewater cruising. Her cutter rig, full keel, and robust GRP construction make her ideal for ocean passages, while her spacious interior, modern systems, and quality finish offer luxurious comfort onboard.
Featuring two queen-size staterooms with ensuite heads and separate showers, a generous saloon with over 7ft headroom, and a beautifully appointed galley, this vessel is ready for long-distance cruising or liveaboard life.
