Island Packet 350

Cast your faith to the wind and let "Ruby Soho" show you the way around San Francisco Bay and distant shores.  She is a true and real cruising mono hull !  Third Captain and has immaculately taken care by all that has shared the helm.  You will be immediately impressed by the spacious and bright interior.  Her accommodations are perhaps the best available in a yacht of her size.  "Ruby Soho" is a two stateroom model with a very generous main salon.  A large off set pullman berth is featured in the Master Stateroom with an upholstered dressing seat with a contoured backrest, large cedar lined hanging locker, bureau cabinet, berth shelves and plenty of stowage volume under the berth, making this stateroom excellent for extended periods aboard.  The head is just aft and to starboard, lending a private access from the stateroom or the salon.  It is a very practical layout with large wrap around counter, lots of cabinets, a shower with contoured seat and curtain.  Moving aft and mid ship is the salon, equally suited for social gatherings.  The central hinged table may be either secured against the bulkhead, providing storage for bottles and glass ware.  The table easily lowers down for a dining table and can foldout to a much larger dinette.  Long bench seating lines the port and starboard hull.  The starboard settee pulls out to make a comfortable mid salon double berth.  Aft of the port settee is an aft facing Nav Station.  An exceptional amount of interior storage is available in the salon as else where throughout the interior, due to the generous tankage centrally located below the cabin sole.  Besides its obvious benefits of improving storage, weight low and central adds to a nice sea kindly vessel.  Port aft is the aft athwartship double berth stateroom with cedar lined hanging locker.  Starboard of the companionway is a full "U" shaped galley
