Boat Description

Established in 1966 by the talented American sailor, designer, and entrepreneur Ted Irwin, Irwin Yachts quickly became one of the leading sailboat manufacturers in the United States. Renowned for their exceptional sailing performance and spacious, comfortable interiors, Irwin's designs captured the hearts of both coastal and long-distance sailors. The Irwin 38 Center Cockpit, known as FREE SPIRIT, exemplifies this legacy: a sturdy and adaptable vessel equipped with numerous amenities ideal for liveaboard living, particularly crafted for bluewater adventures. FREE SPIRIT is powered by a 50 hp Yanmar 4JH3 engine with 8,300 hours and features a fully battened mainsail along with a furling genoa. The boat is outfitted with a comprehensive suite of Raymarine electronics, including a modern chartplotter and linear drive autopilot. The cockpit, enclosed with isinglass and featuring wraparound seating with newer cushions, provides a cozy shelter from inclement weather. Below deck, the classic interior is beautifully designed with a teak and holly sole, elegant teak cabinetry, and an abundance of natural light. The main salon boasts a U-shaped convertible dinette on the port side, a starboard settee, and a navigation station with a chart table. The L-shaped galley is equipped with a double stainless-steel sink, a 3-burner propane stove with an oven, a spacious icebox, a refrigerator, and plenty of storage. The forward cabin includes a V-berth, a hanging locker, and cabinet storage, along with access to the forward head featuring a marine toilet, sink, and shower. The aft master cabin offers an island centerline queen berth, hanging lockers, drawers, and an ensuite head with a separate shower stall. FREE SPIRIT has been lovingly maintained and serviced annually by her original owner, making her an excellent choice for day sailing, liveaboard life, and long coastal or bluewater cruising. Don't miss your chance to own this classic treasure. UPGRADES include a 2022 Dometic AC, a Raymarine chartplotter from 2000, and a Raymarine linear drive autopilot.
