The Irwin 46 Ketch is widely regarded as the best-balanced and most desirable of Ted Irwin's large center-cockpit ketches, blending the palatial interior volume of the flagship 52 with the more manageable size and slightly livelier performance of the 43/45 series. With a 46'6" LOA, 39' waterline, 13'6" beam, 32-33,000 lb displacement, 12,000 lb encapsulated ballast, and a shoal 5'0" Scheel keel, it carries a conservative but easy-to-handle ketch rig of ≈1,020 sq ft (SA/D ~15.5) that excels at long trade wind passages and heavy-weather balance.
Below, it offers commodious accommodations: a true walk-in aft owner's stateroom with king berth and huge en-suite head, full-standing engine room/workshop, panoramic raised saloon, restaurant-sized U-galley, and a forward VIP cabin with private head access-all finished to the improved late-Irwin standard with solid fiberglass hull and beautiful joinery.
