Solasta | 35' Island Packet 1997

 

This 1997 Island Packet 350 is the kind of Bluewater cruiser buyers search for but rarely find—well‑equipped, beautifully maintained, and genuinely ready to cast off today. Her owners have cared for her with intention, and it shows in every corner of the boat. A change in plans brings her to market, creating an excellent opportunity for anyone looking for a proven, capable cruising yacht.

Whether your plans include weekend escapes, extended coastal cruising, or serious offshore miles, this Island Packet 350 is outfitted to deliver safe, comfortable, and confident passage making. Major recent upgrades add tremendous value and peace of mind:

  • Full B&G electronics suite—modern, reliable navigation and performance data
  • Two new flexible solar panels—quiet, sustainable power while cruising
  • All-new running rigging—smooth handling and improved sail efficiency
  • New AGM batteries—strong, dependable onboard energy storage
  • New sacrificial strip on the Genoa + new furling — clean, safe, effortless sail management
  • Fresh bottom paint + new cutlass bearing—excellent performance and reduced future maintenance

Step below and you’ll immediately appreciate why Island Packets have such a loyal following. The interior is warm, inviting, and remarkably well preserved. Rich teak joinery, thoughtful lighting, and a smart, spacious layout create a comfortable onboard living space that feels far fewer than her model year. The saloon offers generous seating and storage, while the private staterooms and well‑designed galley make extended cruising feel effortless.

Built with Island Packet’s legendary full‑keel design and robust construction, the 350 is known for her stability, tracking, and offshore capability. She’s a boat that inspires confidence—whether you’re exploring new anchorages or crossing open water.

If you’re looking for a turnkey cruising yacht with pedigree, upgrades, and genuine Bluewater capability, this Island Packet 350 deserves your attention. Boats this well cared for don’t stay on the market long.
