The Irwin 41, introduced in 1982, represents the pinnacle of Ted Irwin’s focus on the center-cockpit cruising market. While often overshadowed by its siblings, the Irwin 42 and the later 43, the 41 was specifically engineered as a robust, blue-water capable vessel with a distinct emphasis on liveaboard comfort. Built by Irwin Yachts in St. Petersburg, Florida, the model was offered primarily as a masthead ketch, though sloop and cutter configurations existed. It is important to distinguish this cruising model from the rare, high-performance Irwin 41 Citation, of which only four were built based on the SORC-winning racer Razzle Dazzle. The cruising 41 features a much heavier displacement and a hull form optimized for motion comfort rather than racing speed, according to historical design summaries at Wikipedia.
