First impressions of CHASING SUNSETS:
Sound construction, great layout and voluminous storage capacity are the prime virtues of the Island Packet 38. Belowdecks the roominess and overall comforts are likely to catch the eye of liveaboards, couples cruising with guests and sailors planning an extended journey. Teak trim above deck and generous wood panels below add a traditional nautical luster.
Overall, she is very-well maintained with lots of upgrades, and she presents as a much newer boat than a 1989.
