The Island Packet 35, introduced in 1988, remains one of the most successful mid-sized voyaging yachts ever produced by Bob Johnson and the team at Island Packet Yachts. Designed to bridge the gap between the smaller IP 32 and the larger offshore-focused IP 38, the 35 was built until 1994, with over 200 hulls leaving the Florida factory. It serves as a quintessential example of Johnson’s "Full Foil Keel" philosophy, which integrates the keel and hull into a single, seamless structure for maximum strength and directional stability. Unlike many contemporary designs of the late 1980s that prioritized light-air speed and flat-bottom performance, the Island Packet 35 was engineered for the rigors of the open ocean, emphasizing a comfortable motion and a high level of interior volume for liveaboard cruisers.
