Description

**********************************MAJOR PRICE REDUCTION***************** *******************************OWNER WANTS IMMEDIATE SALE*********** *********************************CALL NOW FOR APPOINTMENT************ A deck-saloon cruiser the Irwin 52, with more than 250 hulls launched, may be the most popular big boat, 50-foot-plus, ever built. Featuring roomy interior accommodations, spacious cockpit, wide side decks and raised bulwarks. It boasts of good performance under power as well as sail. The 52 sports a generous rig with more than 1,350 square feet of working sailing area. The underbody is refined with a cutaway long keel and a partially balanced rudder. The 52 moves under sail. Indeed, with its long 44-foot waterline it reaches along at 8 knots steadily. The Irwin 52 cockpit transformed center-cockpit design. Unlike most center cockpits of the time, it is large, comfortable and not just squeezed into the space above the engine room or distorted to allow for headroom in the pass-through to the aft cabin. You can sleep comfortably on either side.
