“Lastochka” is a 2000 Island Packet 420 hull #2 built to be presented at the Annapolis Boat Show and entered into the Cruising World Magazine “ Best Cruising Yacht” competition, which she won that year. Purchased in 2017 and constantly upgraded with a goal to circumnavigate. No expenses spared. This is not a project boat forgotten in some dusty boat yard, and she is not a marina queen where half of the systems won’t survive the 1st month of cruising. This is a real deal, tested, sea-tried trialed and 100% ready to go. The boat is set up for sailing serious oceans.
