Delicia Boat | 40' Island Packet 1995

1995 Island Packet IP40

Price: $147,500 (USD)

Location: New Bern, North Carolina

Overview

Presenting DELICIA, hull #35 of the respected 1995 Island Packet IP40 line — a solid, bluewater-capable cruising sailboat, built for comfort and longevity. Far more than a project or fixer-upper, DELICIA has been rigorously maintained and continually upgraded, making her ready today for extended passages or living aboard in luxury.

She combines Island Packet’s legendary build quality with modern systems and comforts, set up for singlehanded sailing, powered anchoring, and off-grid capability.

    Why DELICIA Stands Out

    If you're looking for an Island Packet that you can cruise now with confidence, DELICIA is rare: she has high-end systems, excellent maintenance, strong safety and redundancy, and all the cruising tools built in. She is ready for long passages, liveaboard life, or just heading south for the winter in style.
