Nice boat
I’ve been enjoying the podcast!
Awesome! Glad that you have been listening!
I love Island Packets but I'm a bigger fan of the newer models. My biggest problem with these "older" Island packets is that self tacking boom in the front and the cutter rigging. If I where to buy it I would want a break to solent rig it and put in a self tacking jib to get rid of the boom. Solent rig is way better set up for down wind running and those booms use up all your fore deck.
I’m actually doing that on my Pearson 365
Watch out for the chain plates. Numerous IPs have had failures. Cost of repair is substantial.
YES! That is why this is such a great deal! The current owner already had Mack Services in Florida REPLACE all of the chain plates. (approx. $11k)

Aloha. We’re ALL CHAINPLATES REPLACED ? In your opening line you said pulled and inspected not replaced. Thanks @@brokerwiththebeard
Yes! Replaced. Thank you for the specification!@@detaileast
That was in the late 80's and early 90's due to the type of metal used. By the time they reached 1995 that was no longer an issue. And, he said they pulled the chain plates for inspection to ensure there was no issue.
This looks exactly like the boat that was moored up in a slip down here in the Norfolk/VA Beach area this past spring. Same year, hull & deck color, canvas, and interior layout with the same color and design on the sette. It was moored right next to my friends boat, and I had a chance to take a close look at the exterior and interior. It was for sale for $65,000 and didn't last long on the market. It was moved immediately after the sale. I hope this isn't the same boat that they purchased for 65 and are now trying to flip it for 115.
It definitely is not. Current owner purchased from the original owner 3 years ago. SEAGULL has spent the vast majority of her time in the upper Chesapeake.
One of the things that Island Packet always did well (and it’s a long list) was to make their boats very recognizable. The down side is that many of the boats are either green, blue, maroon or tan canvas. Not a lot of diversity
