1977 Irwin 43 Mk I

Illness in the family is necessitating a huge price reduction. Seller wants all offers.

Irwin has long been noted for their fabulous long distance "bluewater" cruising boats, giving great comfort and sailing ability for their size. This example, hull #1, a sleek center-board model, has unfortunately been neglected for some time. The owner has had great intentions of bringing her back to live, but sometimes, as they say, "life gets in the way". He has now made the right choice and decide to let another loving family pick up the reins and lead the charge.

All the pieces-parts are there, The 62 hp Perkins diesel, davits, solar, propane, dinghy/ob, electric windlass, ketch rigged and the interior layout is to die for.

Most important what blue-water capable boat can you get into for under $20K?

If you have some "hands on" ability and want to roll up your sleeves, you could buy a sailors "dream" boat and with the short Ketch rig and center board you have both Ocean sailing ability with shallow draft potential for the Gulf Coast.

Make no mistake, though engine runs good, this is a "project boat".
