On the Market AND One of the Best!
This proven blue-water cruiser is fully-equipped and ready to cast off. She is hull number 182/188 of the popular IP38 series hulls making her one of the NEWEST IP38's on the market! PASHKA is a rare IP38 with a furling-boom and fully-roached and battened mainsail enabling a short-handed crew to safely operate all the sails from inside the cockpit, particularly with the help of her Electric Winch. She is well maintained in Good Condition, with Petit Trinidad 75 high-copper anti-fouling paint, Sikkens Cetol Light brightwork treatment (2014).
In 1994 the IP40, with the same 41'6" LOA, was introduced to replace the IP38. The various models of Island Packet Yachts represent the largest percentage of boats selected by members of the Seven Seas Cruising Association as they boast blue water cruising abilities, live-aboard comfort, and superior sea-worthiness characterized by their solid-fiberglass full-keel hull and 165-degree righting moment. PASHKA was constructed in Florida and has spent her cruising life in Florida, Texas, the Gulf of Mexico, and the Florida Keys.
PASHKA is a nicely-maintained example of the model with nice brightwork, regularly waxed fiberglass, and polished stainless steel. She has a full dodger and Bimini top with full standup room beneath; canvas covers for her dinghy, outboard motor, binnacle, windlass, winches, and hatches, as well as weather screen sides for the Bimini to shelter her cockpit from sun and spray. She has full insect screens below, custom Starboard companionway doors, and a custom Starboard folding cockpit table.
