The Island PACKET 45 is a Robert K. Johnson-designed cutter-rigged sailboat built by Island Packet Yachts between 1996 and 2000, featuring a long keel, a 13.8 m LOA, and a displacement of 12,882 kg. Its full-foil keel, designed with NACA airfoil sections, provides tracking stability and a gentle motion while maintaining a 1.5 m draft. The hull is a one-piece, hand-laminated solid fiberglass molding with no keel bolts, using triaxial knitted laminate and a proprietary Polyclad gel coat.8:09 Aboard *Lady K Sailing*, a 1999 model with a 28,000-pound displacement and a Yanmar 4J-HTE engine, was noted for its suitability for world cruising, though chain plates manufactured before late 1998 (when Island Packet switched from 304 to 316 stainless steel) are prone to failure and may require replacement.1:17 The boat typically carries 800 amp hours of LiFePO4 batteries, 690 watts of solar, and a 63-pound CQR anchor, with a 140-gallon fuel capacity.4:00 A circumnavigation aboard an Island PACKET 45, as detailed by *The Sailing Doodles Podcast*, included passages through the Caribbean, Panama Canal, Galapagos, and Marquesas, emphasizing the need for extensive spare parts and adherence to hull-cleaning protocols in sensitive areas like the Galapagos.31:32
