BRAND NEW LISTING - CLASSIC IP CRUISER

BEST 31 YOU WILL SEE - SUPER MAINTAINED - AIR CONDITIONING

Overview

The Island Packet '83-'88 31 is the most popular design that IP manufactured. It featured a solid glass hull with integral Full Foil Keel, bow sprit, and a spade rudder. The Packets were beamy with flatter bottoms that provided more Initial Stability. With more ballast laid in the "Full Foil Keel," their Ultimate Stability was higher. An easily reefed Cutter Rig made the Packets comfortable in most conditions. Their decks were synthetically cored, and their masts were Keel-Stepped. Below deck, they had ample room and storage for cruising, a table that stored easily out of the way when not in use, and a Yanmar Diesel known for its reliability. After almost 4 decades, the 31 remains a sought-after yacht that will take you where you want to go safely and comfortably.

"El Bo Room" is a very well-maintained example of this classic Bob Johnson designed cruiser!

Accommodations and Walkthrough

Beginning at the bow, there is an Anchor Locker accessed through the Vee Berth. It is large enough to hold and divide two complete Anchors and their Rodes, chain, and rope. The locker drains overboard.

The large Vee Berth follows aft. It is very comfortable with a large opening hatch, an opening port, a 12V 3-speed Fan, and a couple of reading lights. It is light and airy. There is ample storage with a cabinet/Hanging Locker on the port side of entry, shelves along the hull side, and two additional cabinets under the berth.

A good-sized private Head is on the starboard side of entry featuring a separate Vee Berth Entry, a sink, full-sized commode, and shower. There is plenty of storage both under and over the counter. A teak towel holder and mirror are convenient.

The Main Saloon follows aft with an "L" shaped settee on starboard that easily converts to a double berth. The Dining Table stores up against the bulkhead when not in use. You can easily feed a crew of seven utilizing the straight settee on port, which is long enough for napping. The saloon is light and airy with 5 opening ports, a large opening hatch, plus 4 reading lights.

A "U" shaped Galley is next aft on port with a refrigerator, 2-burner Stove/Oven, a double sink, plus lots of storage including a large dry storage bin.

The Quarterberth is aft on starboard, cleverly designed with an accordion door and a chart table that folds up into desk position and up again to create a private sleeping area or a place to hide your stuff. There are two ports and a hatch for good ventilation.

The on-center Companionway leads to the Cockpit with its long, facing settees that provide comfortable room for sailing, entertaining, and sleeping under the stars.

"El Bo Room" is the best cared for 31 I have seen in a long time. If you are looking for a "BIG" safe and comfortable cruiser that is ready to go, you owe it to yourself to see this exceptional cruiser.
