1997 Island Packet 45 You simply have to see this Island Packet to really appreciate it!! This IP 45 was sailed exclusively in fresh water until 2017. Throughout its life in Lake Michigan, she was in heated storage during the winter months. Since then, her owners have lightly used her and meticulously maintained her. This care of ownership makes Gypsy Soul appear as if she has just come out of the factory. Its impressive! With one of the most innovative, practical and well-appointed interiors to ever appear in a yacht of this size range, Gypsy Soul accommodations are focused on both the requirements of extended cruising and a comfortable lifestyle when spending time aboard. Among her many attributes are Gypsy Soul pristine interior, Low-Hours on Engine and Generator, Solar Panels, Wind Generator, Air Conditioning, Max Prop 4 blade, Bow Thruster, 2017 Main and Genoa in great condition, Water maker, Custom Dinghy Davits and Solar array, and Custom Swim Platform.

The theoretical maximum speed that a displacement hull can move efficiently through the water is determined by it's waterline length and displacement. It may be unable to reach this speed if the boat is underpowered or heavily loaded, though it may exceed this speed given enough power. Read more.
Classic hull speed formula:
Hull Speed = 1.34 x √LWL
A more accurate formula devised by Dave Gerr in The Propeller Handbook replaces the Speed/Length ratio constant of 1.34 with a calculation based on the Displacement/Length ratio.
Max Speed/Length ratio = 8.26 ÷ Displacement/Length ratio.311
Hull Speed = Max Speed/Length ratio x √LWL
A measure of the power of the sails relative to the weight of the boat. The higher the number, the higher the performance, but the harder the boat will be to handle. This ratio is a "non-dimensional" value that facilitates comparisons between boats of different types and sizes. Read more.
SA/D = SA ÷ (D ÷ 64)2/3
A measure of the stability of a boat's hull that suggests how well a monohull will stand up to its sails. The ballast displacement ratio indicates how much of the weight of a boat is placed for maximum stability against capsizing and is an indicator of stiffness and resistance to capsize.
Ballast / Displacement * 100
A measure of the weight of the boat relative to it's length at the waterline. The higher a boat’s D/L ratio, the more easily it will carry a load and the more comfortable its motion will be. The lower a boat's ratio is, the less power it takes to drive the boat to its nominal hull speed or beyond. Read more.
D/L = (D ÷ 2240) ÷ (0.01 x LWL)³
This ratio assess how quickly and abruptly a boat’s hull reacts to waves in a significant seaway, these being the elements of a boat’s motion most likely to cause seasickness. Read more.
Comfort ratio = D ÷ (.65 x (.7 LWL + .3 LOA) x Beam1.33)
This formula attempts to indicate whether a given boat might be too wide and light to readily right itself after being overturned in extreme conditions. Read more.
CSV = Beam ÷ ³√(D / 64)
