built with a focus on strength, safety, and longevity

The Island Packet 439 blends advanced materials with proven design principles. A skeg-hung, protected rudder ensures reliability and control, while a proprietary molded structural interior grid (IGU) is bonded directly to the hull and bulkheads, creating a unified and exceptionally rigid structure. Premium Coosa Composite replaces marine plywood for superior durability, and tri-axial woven roving fiberglass cloth is combined with high-quality vinyl ester resins for strength and blister resistance. Chainplates are fabricated from 316L annealed stainless steel and interlocked with the hull for a secure, “belt-and-suspenders” approach to rig integrity. The deck is a one-piece unit, through-bolted and bonded with urethane adhesive, with aluminum backing plates for hardware loads. Finishing touches include a molded fiberglass headliner and two-tone premium slip-resistant deck surfaces, available in a choice of refined colors, underscoring both durability and luxury.

Hull & Ballast

The 439’s hull is a single-piece, hand-laminated structure made with high-modulus knitted fiberglass and infused using a proprietary pressure-fed system for maximum consistency and strength. Gelcoat finish and hull color can be personalized in ivory, camel tan, graystone, or off-white, accented by a urethane-painted boot stripe. Together, these details create a hull that is as visually striking as it is structurally robust.

Fully encapsulated lead ballast is integrated into the length of the keel, forming a double bottom with no keel bolts to loosen or maintain. This design not only enhances safety and structural integrity but also reflects Island Packet’s long-standing commitment to bluewater reliability.

10 Year Limited Warrenty

PolyClad3® hull gel system includes ten-year pro-rated limited warranty against osmotic blisters.
Deck laminate features Divinycel, virtually eliminating the potential for deck deterioration associated with other core materials. Includes a 10-year pro-rated limited warranty against deck core-degradation or delamination, an industry exclusive.

Expansive, Thoughtfully Designed Cockpit & Deck

Blending performance and comfort, the 439’s cockpit combines precision steering and integrated systems with full-length seating, deep storage, and a folding table that makes it as ideal for entertaining at anchor as it is for long passagemaking. Spacious and secure, it’s built for both bluewater performance and onboard comfort, without sacrificing safety and practicality.

The deck combines strength, safety, and refined detailing to create a platform equally suited for offshore confidence and onboard enjoyment. Built with a solid fiberglass hull and cored deck for durability, it features a molded non-skid surface that provides secure footing in all conditions. Wide side decks, High-quality stainless steel hardware, double lifelines, and custom toerails reflect Island Packet’s attention to both craftsmanship and safety. Designed to be functional for passagemaking yet polished for leisure, the 439’s deck is as comfortable for lounging under sail as it is for handling bluewater passages with confidence.

engineered for reliability and comfort

The 439’s onboard systems are designed for safety, reliability, and ease of use. Deluxe AC/DC panels with gauges, breakers, and inverter/charger provide clear power management, backed by shore power protection and a fail-safe galvanic isolator. Pre-wiring for windlass, bow thruster, and electronics makes upgrades seamless. Beneath the cabin sole, tanks are thoughtfully placed for balance and efficiency—160 gallons of fuel in a baffled aluminum tank, 260 gallons of fresh water in a ThermoCure™ fiberglass tank, and 55 gallons of holding capacity with remote monitoring. For comfort, the yacht offers pressurized hot and cold water throughout, an insulated eleven-gallon water heater, and a dedicated sump system for showers and sinks. A secure LPG setup with dual safety shutoffs, remote solenoid, and room for an extra tank completes a systems package that blends modern engineering with practical cruising luxury.
