This 1987 Island Packet 31 has some very nice cruising amenities including a Custom Secondary Electric Panel and a teak and stainless steel swim platform, a Wind Generator and Solar Panels, as well as updated instruments plus much more.
Beginning at the bow, there is an anchor locker large enough to accommodate two complete anchor rodes.
The Vee Berth follows aft with an opening port and a large opening hatch that combine with two reading lights providing great ventilation and light. There is lots of storage with a hanging locker on port of entrance, shelves on both hull sides and 2 cabinets under the berth. Every bit of space is used.
A large Head is aft on starboard with sink, shower, teak towel holder and mirror. Again, there is good light and ventilation with an opening port and hatch. There are a door to the Vee Berth and another to the Saloon. It gives more of a feeling of privacy
The Main Saloon follows with an “L” shaped settee on starboard that converts to a double berth. Across on port is a straight settee long enough to serve as a comfortable single berth. There is a shelf and cabinet on both hull sides above the settees and a large hanging locker forward by the entrance to the vee berth providing lots of extra storage. The starboard side dining table folds up and stores on the forward bulkhead when not in use adding lots of open space. The table can comfortably sit up to 6 family and friends. The saloon has an opening hatch, 6 opening ports and 4 reading lights giving the 31 great light and ventilation. For safety, there are teak hand holds on both sides of Saloon.
A “U” shaped Galley follows aft on port with double sink, 2 burner propane stove & oven, large icebox/refrigerator, and lots of additional storage above and below the counter.
The Quarter Berth is aft on starboard and is large enough for a couple to comfortably sleep. The good sized forward facing Nav Desk unfolds upwards and utilizing the front of the aft berth as the desk chair.
The whole saloon, galley and nav area have a light and airy feel with the open design.
The deep Cockpit provides security & is long enough for sailing, entertaining and sleeping. It is protected from the elements with a dodger, and bimini. A fold down custom transom ladder gets you onto the teak and stainless steel swim platform. A swim ladder makes getting in and out of the water or dinghy easy and safe.
