In 1996,the Island Packet 45 replaced the 44 becoming Island Packet's Flagship yacht. She continued IP's cruising philosophy but with much more tankage and a large, dedicated navigation station. Her Forward Head was at the bow followed by a king sized Pullman Berth. Her aft cabin had a huge Quarter Berth and a private entrance to the aft Head. The 45 is BIG, LUXURIOUS and SPACIOUS with lots of elbow room, storage and space for living, cruising and entertaining. She had the longest waterline of the fleet and a good turn of speed. All of her sails are on furling systems making her easy to handle. Otter II is priced to sell.
