Is This The Ultimate Island Cruiser? | 1985 Irwin 43 MKII Full Tour
Join Captain Kew and me as we step aboard S/V Dream, a beautifully maintained 1985 Irwin 43 MKII, a spacious center cockpit cruising sailboat that's ready to head south today.
Designed by Ted Irwin, the Irwin 43 MKII has earned a reputation as one of the most comfortable liveaboard and island cruising sailboats ever built. With her shoal draft, cutter rig, enormous interior, generous tankage, and proven Perkins diesel, she's equally at home exploring the Bahamas, the Florida Keys, the Chesapeake, or the Caribbean.
At an asking price of just $75,000, could this be one of the best cruising values on today's market?
