About the ISLAND PACKET 360
The Island Packet 360 is a robust cruising yacht designed by Robert K. Johnson and built by Island Packet Yachts (USA) in 2012. With a displacement of 19299.0 lb and a full/long keel, this model exemplifies the brand's reputation for heavy, safe offshore performance, though specific build counts for this single-year production run are not definitively established in the source data.
- Best for:
- This boat is ideally suited for serious coastal and offshore cruisers who prioritize safety, stability, and comfort over high-speed planing. Its heavy displacement and cutter rig make it particularly well-matched for couples or families seeking a reliable, low-maintenance vessel for extended passages.
- Bluewater capability:
- With a D/L ratio of 277.49, a capsize ratio of 1.84, and a full/long keel, the Island Packet 360 is inherently stable and well-suited for bluewater cruising. Its heavy displacement and conservative design ratios suggest excellent performance in heavy weather and long-distance offshore passages.
- Comparables:
- Comparable vessels include the Hallberg-Rassy 362 and the Tartan 36, which share similar heavy-displacement characteristics and full-keel designs. These boats are comparable because they all prioritize seakeeping and structural integrity over speed, appealing to the same conservative cruising demographic.
