For Sale: Island Packet 40

[svcielo]

$168,500

An absolute must-see. If you are serious about cruising, you owe it to yourself to look at Cielo. Her current owner is an engineer with 35+ years of cruising experience who bought and equipped her with the intention of owning her forever. This is the best IP40 on the market, and at a bargain price.

The difference between her and others on the market is in the quality of her installations and thoughtful upgrades. She has been outfitted by a cruising couple for a cruising couple. She’s clean, comfortable, energy-independent, and maintained at the highest level. She spent her first 6 years on fresh water.
If you know Island Packets, you know the IP40 is the gold standard; if you don’t, here’s a primer from Cruising World: http://www.cruisingworld.com/sailboats/island-packet-40?image=3.
