SWEET DREAM

Turnkey Bluewater Cutter Rig • Proven Circumnavigator Designed by the legendary naval architect Robert K. (Bob) Johnson, the Island Packet 485 continues to define the pinnacle of bluewater cruising. Sweet Dream embodies this pedigree with exceptional seaworthiness, proven offshore performance, and a level of comfort and craftsmanship that sets her apart. As a proven circumnavigator, Sweet Dream has already carried her owners on unforgettable bluewater voyages. Meticulously maintained, thoughtfully upgraded, and recently refitted, she is truly turnkey —fully equipped and ready to cruise immediately. Whether your plans call for exploring secluded island anchorages, crossing oceans, or embarking on an epic voyage around the world, Sweet Dream delivers the confidence, comfort, and capability to take you there without hesitation. Her sailing legacy is already impressive: Sweet Dream has completed two full circumnavigations with the World ARC—a rare distinction that underscores her pedigree as a proven world cruiser. Beyond her global voyages, the current owners have spent three seasons exploring the U.S. East Coast, Florida Keys, and winters in the Bahamas. Now she’s ready for her next chapter and new owners. Sweet Dream isn’t just ocean-ready; she’s a fully equipped circumnavigation yacht, built and outfitted for serious world cruising. Built for voyaging, she features a center cockpit that becomes your all-weather sanctuary—high, dry, and with commanding views underway or at anchor. Her heavy-displacement hull and full-foil keel provide a steady, confident ride, while the cutter rig and 40% ballast-to-displacement ratio inspire trust in bluewater conditions. Offshore, she moves gracefully; electric winches, a bow thruster, and autopilot make passagemaking effortless for a couple or a short-handed crew. Her long waterline and balanced sail plan reward you with easy miles under sail, whether ghosting along in light breezes or charging through a fresh trade-wind swell.
