Back about '65 I crewed on one, which was purchased new by the owner. We raced out of Gulfstream in Ft. L for a couple of years, with some success. It also stood up to the snottiest weather I have ever ben out in, handled it well & got us back home safe with no boat or equipment failure.

Great accomodations and original equipment.

Thanks for the feedback....I am looking for a boat to call home it seems and saw one of the Islanders that has been taken care of very well it seems...Much cheaper than a Mercer 44' which I really like,but I have not the amount of cash it would take to get the Mercer it seems....
