About this yacht
This well-equipped 2005 Island Packet 445 is designed for comfortable coastal cruising, extended passage-making, and living aboard. This highly regarded center-cockpit design combines Island Packet's renowned construction and sea-kindly performance with a spacious two-cabin, two-head interior, excellent storage, and a versatile 5' draft.
Equipped for extended cruising, Tenacity features in-mast furling, a cutter rig, three electric winches, a bow thruster, an 8 kW generator, solar, a watermaker, a full cockpit enclosure, an arch and davits, Garmin electronics, and a dinghy with a 20 HP outboard. Her ICW-friendly 62' air draft further expands her cruising options.
She has benefited from substantial updates, including standing rigging, a North Sails 3Di in-mast furling mainsail, running rigging, upgraded solar charging, a Kanzaki transmission, and a rebuilt Max-Prop. Her 75 HP Yanmar diesel was removed and professionally rebuilt in 2022 at 3,593 hours and currently has approximately 5,500 total hours.
With comfortable owner's accommodations, substantial tankage, proven cruising equipment, and extensive upgrades, Tenacity offers an attractive combination of capability, comfort, and cruising readiness for a couple looking to explore the coast or venture farther offshore.
