Absolutely Nauticat and/or Fisher. Also Hunter, as they were the closest competitor to IP. Personally I'd prefer a same size Nauticat from the 80s or 90s that's been repowered, refurbished etc and sells for $60K to $80K before a slightly newer Island Packet at $200K. But hey that's just me. This one's asking price is extremely optimistic in today's used boat market, especially in Florida with all that's been happening in that business there recently.
Not really designed for propane though canisters fit there well. It is a perfect fit for a 2 1/2 gallon gasoline tank for your dingy. It has an overboard vent for spilled fuel. So, it’s a great multipurpose hatch. A cooler for drinks, a place to put your fuel tank, or a location to store propane canisters. I store my boat soap and brushes and cleaning materials there.
Hey guys let me know what you think about this boat and IP's in general. Is there a boat in this class you'd prefer over an Island Packet?
Hello sir. Just out of curiosity, are you a licensed captain yourself?
@@theabsolutetruth2024 I had a liscense but never used it.

She's a stunner ❤❤
This a real boat for ocean sailing ❤❤🎉😊
NICE N EXPENSIVE
Well built for sure and seems maintained. My only complaint is access on an off boat both at dock or on the water.
Thats a beauty of a boat, i dred to think what the value is 👊🏻👏🏻
Great 👍
That fire extinguisher sign at the engine room is a port the spray the fire extinguisher in if there is a fire in the engine room.
Love to such a well thought out boat
Nice carpentry on this boat
I need one soon
DREAM, DREAM, DREAM, DREEEEEAM, DREAM, DREAM, DREAM, DREEEADREAM.
Goddamn that’s nice
Dang great deal!!
I could live on that
IP are true full keel yachts and the aft facing nav station with no back is not a good idea.
Aw man, if I only had the dough.
That area in the cockpit in not a "cooler". Its another propane locker.

The boat i prefer at this range would be a Shannon.
Thanks I’ll have to so if there’s any in my area to tour.
Very well built boats. Quality finish.
Not pretty, and not good sailers!
