1979 Irwin 52 Ketch SEA SHARP
A true cruising blue water ketch, SEA SHARP has cruised the world over the last decade. Placed on the hard in 2019, COVID-19 interrupted her continued cruising as her owners are from Switzerland. During the yard time the hull was repainted in 2019 and new main and mizzen masts were replaced with new.
The Perkins main engine was replaced with a new, in 2009 and has only 1,600 hours. The electrical portion of the Northern Lights generator was replaced in 2014. During the yard period the bottom was repainted as well.
Ready to continue her cruising or utilized as a large liveaboard, SEA SHARP is the one to see. Needing only a few updates and repairs, the seller will consider all reasonable offers.
Center board draft is 12’6” down and 5’6” up.
All systems are operational and ready to go!
