Description

ZEPHYR is a well-equipped 1991 Island Packet 32 Cutter offering the solid construction, practical cruising layout, and easily managed sail plan that have made Island Packet yachts so popular with cruising sailors.

Designed by Robert Johnson, the Island Packet 32 combines a full cut-away keel, shallow draft, protected rudder, and versatile cutter rig with an unusually spacious interior for a yacht of this size. With approximately 6'2" of headroom, accommodations for up to seven, and generous storage throughout, ZEPHYR is equally suited to coastal cruising, extended time aboard, or a couple looking for a manageable long-distance cruising platform.

KEY FEATURES & EQUIPMENT:

• 27 HP Yanmar 3GM30F diesel
• Autoprop 3-blade folding propeller
• Full cut-away keel with approximately 4'4" draft
• Easily managed cutter rig
• North Sails mainsail, 130% genoa and staysail — new in 2019
• Asymmetrical spinnaker with sock
• Roller furling genoa and staysail
• CPT autopilot — installed 2024
• Backup Raymarine ST4000 wheel autopilot
• Garmin 741S chartplotter on NMEA 2000 network
• Garmin AIS 600
• Garmin VHF and G-Wind instrumentation
• Airmar through-hull depth sounder
• 350W Renogy solar array with 40A charge controller
• Balmar 120A alternator with smart regulator
• Four Lifeline AGM house batteries
• Custom tow-behind generator
• Sunbrella dodger, bimini, connector and full enclosure — new in 2024
• Maxwell electric windlass
• Rocna primary anchor with 200 ft of chain
• CQR, Danforth and Para-Anchor also included
• Forespar folding NovaDavits
• Yamaha 4-stroke dinghy outboard
• 85 gallons freshwater capacity
• Adler-Barbour refrigerator/freezer
• Hillerange propane stove with oven
• Spacious forward cabin, salon and large aft quarter berth
• Enclosed head with shower
• Classic teak-and-holly interior

One of ZEPHYR’s biggest advantages is how much cruising capability is packed into a manageable package. Control lines are led aft to the cockpit, both headsails are roller-furling, and the cutter rig allows a small crew to balance the sail plan across a wide range of conditions.

Below decks, she offers considerably more room than many boats in this size range, with a private forward cabin, large salon, convertible double berth, substantial quarter berth, dedicated navigation station, functional galley, enclosed head, and excellent ventilation through numerous stainless-steel portlights and deck hatches.

For buyers looking for a well-known cruising design that is already equipped for shorthanded sailing and extended time away from the dock, ZEPHYR deserves a closer look.
