The Islander Bahama 24 emerged during the late 1960s as a strategic expansion of the Wayfarer Yacht Corporation’s lineup, designed to offer a more accessible, "valueoriented" alternative to the standard Islander 24. While the original Islander 24 was famous for its "plankline" fiberglass hull that mimicked wooden construction, the Bahama 24 utilized a smoother hull finish and a simplified interior to appeal to the burgeoning market of firsttime family sailors. Built in Costa Mesa, California, the boat was a product of Joseph McGlasson’s design philosophy, focusing on stability and ease of use. It represents a bridge between the early traditionalist fiberglass designs and the more modern, highvolume production boats of the 1970s.
