We are excited to see 359-01 coming together. I should be able to do a video in the next week of the interior along with the changes and upgrades from the 349. 359-01 will not make Annapolis this year but will be in the January St Petersburg show. Our plan is to build 4 in this run before moving to the new 459 production. We do have #04 that is available because the buyer wants to wait for about 6 months before starting so he will be #05, or the first one in the next run. If you want a new 359 for this spring let me know and you can have the slot for #04. This will be the last of the 2027 model 359's.

This is one of the best reasons to own an Island Packet. This gives us great pleasure to know we were apart of making this happen. Memories like this are priceless!

Ahoy and Happy Summer! I wanted to share with you the new deck layout for the new 459. The new deck allows for people to get around the new improved helm. We have taken out the forward dorade vent and added a hatch so people can put their small dinghy on the bow in a big storm. We have lots of different interior combinations now to allow our owners to build an even more custom boat. Fun times for the new 459. We have also decided to do 120/240V AC along with 48, and 24 DC volt standard. If you install all the optional batteries you will end up with the same as 2400 amps in 12V. Can never have to much battery power. We can now build an Island Packet with all the creature comforts and no generator.

Today we started putting the deck down on 359-01. Its fun to see this boat come together!

Back to building Island Packets after our Independence Day weekend. We have our 2nd 359 online now along with a 459. Tooling is working on the 459 deck plug and the new 459 Hull Structure Unit. All is good here, Blessings to all.
