[She has just sold - 10/13/2024]
A GREAT Liveaboard SAILBOAT! This 1987 Island Packet 38 is ready to go now at $65,000!
We loved this sailboat, and for the price of $65,000 (OBRO), we think this is an opportunity if you're looking for a proven ocean cruiser. There is a survey available for review from October 2022. This is not to say you shouldn't get your own, but this would give you a baseline for what the surveyor found from two years ago. She is big, she is solid, and she is clean. And the sellers, who have owned this sailboat for 17 years, are super nice people. They have sailed LOST HORIZON back and forth from the Bahamas to Maine several times and are selling her now because they own three businesses and simply no longer have the time to enjoy her. Below is the seller's contact information. Below that is a list of upgrades and extra gear that comes with her.
As usual, please be kind and courteous if you make contact and remember, we are not brokers and we have no financial interest in this boat.
Thank you for watching and for your continued support!
