Island Spirit 380 | Extensive Off-Grid Upgrades 

2 Cabin 2 Heads layout

The Island Spirit 380 is a proven cruising catamaran that offers an excellent balance of comfort, efficiency, and practicality. Designed for easy short-handed sailing and economical long-distance cruising, she provides spacious accommodation, a bright panoramic saloon, and a practical layout that has made the Island Spirit range a popular choice for liveaboard cruisers throughout Southeast Asia.

This vessel’s standout feature is her impressive off-grid electrical system. She has been upgraded with a 28kWh LiFePO₄ lithium battery bank supported by a 3kW solar array, allowing extended periods at anchor with minimal reliance on shore power or a generator. Combined with generous refrigeration and practical galley facilities, she is exceptionally well suited to independent cruising.  

The sails remain in good condition, with the original mainsail professionally re-stitched and fitted with new chafe protection in 2024. Deck equipment includes serviced Lewmar winches, a 20kg Bruce anchor with 45 metres of chain, and comprehensive mooring gear. The vessel was last hauled out in December 2025 at Ocean Marina, where Prop Speed was applied as part of routine maintenance.  

This is not a brand-new yacht, and she should be viewed as an honest cruising boat that would benefit from some cosmetic attention. There are signs of normal wear both internally and externally that a new owner may wish to address over time. These are primarily cosmetic rather than structural and have been reflected in the asking price.

The navigation electronics are also an area where many buyers may choose to upgrade. The boat is currently equipped with a functional Garmin GPSMAP 80XS chartplotter with Southeast Asia charts, while the NMEA 2000 backbone, Airmar DST-810 transducer, and gWind sensor are already onboard. An autopilot computer and associated components are included but are not currently installed, and some display units require replacement before becoming fully operational. This presents an excellent opportunity for a buyer to install a modern Garmin or B&G navigation package to suit their own cruising requirements.  

For buyers looking beyond cosmetics, this Island Spirit 380 offers an excellent platform with significant investment already made in the electrical system and cruising infrastructure. She represents outstanding value for someone seeking a capable cruising catamaran that can be enjoyed immediately while being improved over time.
