EXPERIENCE THE JOYS OF SAILING WITH EXCEPTIONAL CREATURE COMFORTS TO BOOT!

The new Island Packet 42 MS is latest iteration of the Next Generation Island Packet Fleet.

Comfort and Confidence in Cruising

The Motor Sailer allows you to keep the elements outside and the power to control your sails inside. The salon and galley are located together on the deck level. The starboard helm has a side door for easy access to the deck. The salon opens to the aft deck with a window/door combination that creates the indoor/outdoor living, combining your living spaces according to your preferences.

Island Packet continues with the Solent-style rig, featuring a mainsail with a working jib and an optional lightweight 170% Reacher or asymmetrical that mounts on the integral bow platform. The in-mast furling is equipped standard with the Selden Synchronized Main System, with the outhaul leading to the winch inside the cabin next to the helm station. The jib sheet/outhaul leads to the cabin as well. The working jib is fitted with a foredeck mounted jib track that is self-tending and improves performance with its close sheeting and self-vanging feature, while the large optional Reacher or asymmetrical Genoa boost performance in light air or when off the wind. All sheets lead to the cockpit primary winches at the helm for short-handed convenience. 

An ample staircase leads from the helm to the lower living area which holds a large owner’s stateroom with an Island berth and large ensuite head. The guest stateroom has a double berth and a spot for an optional washer/dryer. Additional configurations are available on the port side.

Call us to experience what it feels like to build YOUR boat, YOUR way, by a team that cares about you and your cruising dreams.

There is a large engine room with access from salon sole or under stairs to lower living area. And she is well-powered with the Yanmar 110 HP diesel engine.

With classic good looks inside and out that blend the modern and traditional, spirited sailing performance, premium materials and the best warranty coverage in the industry, the new 42 Motor Sailer continues Island Packet’s reputation as a benchmark for excellence.
