Former motor sailer Islander is in the news because she's undergoing a complete refit to be relaunched as a true motor yacht. The photos in the brochure shown above demonstrate that even as a motor sailer Islander had the lines of a motor yacht all along so the change seems like a logical choice. At 192 feet in length and a beam of over 36 feet, Islander was able to boast a remarkably large plunge pool that was 22-foot long with a 6-foot depth on the sun deck.
The recent blog post in MegaYacht News about the refit caught our eye because we've worked on a variety of Islander projects over the years. We went back to our archives to this 12-page yacht charter brochure for Islander that was designed and printed by Laser Advertising in 2006. This yacht brochure was part of the charter marketing for the boat. The yacht photography for Islander was provided by Alexis Andrews. As a motor sailer, Islander was memorable and we look forward to seeing her new incarnation as a motor yacht.
