Building
Yacht cutter Irwin 54 built in 1990 by Irwin Yacht & Marine Corp according to the plans of Ted Irwin.
The Irwin is renowned for its ease of sailing with a small crew, with more space above and below deck than most yachts of this size. Caribbean charterers have been using Irwin yachts for 30 years for their simplicity, space, and ease of maintenance of their fiberglass decks.
Its shallow draft of 1.7 m allows access to almost all anchorages. It offers exceptional comfort and allows for maneuvers with a small crew in all conditions. All maneuvers are brought back to the cockpit and it has two electric winches.
Its owner is selling it for a new adventure: to explore the canals of Europe and get closer to his family and grandchildren.
