41' Irwin Citation
$ 59,000
Listing No. 6571
The Irwin Citation 41 is a rare Ted Irwin design, with only four examples reportedly built.
Combining a solid offshore pedigree with an exceptionally practical layout, she’s a boat that inspires confidence whether you’re exploring the Gulf Islands with family or preparing for longer passages.
One of her standout features is the unique double cockpit layout. The aft cockpit gives the captain a dedicated, distraction-free space for sailing, while the forward cockpit: protected beneath a substantial hard dodger, creates a sheltered area where family, friends, or children can relax out of the wind and weather.
It’s a thoughtful design that allows everyone onboard to enjoy the day in comfort while keeping sailing separate from the social space.
Wide, uncluttered side decks make moving forward easy and secure, whether you’re handling dock lines, anchoring, or simply moving around the boat.
Combined with her substantial 9,500 lb ballast and solid fibreglass construction, she feels reassuringly stable underfoot and inspires confidence for sailors of all experience levels.
- Spacious accommodation (sleeps 10!)
- Transferable moorage at Bowen Island until April 2027
Whether you’re searching for a comfortable family cruiser with safe, practical deck space or a capable passagemaker ready to be outfitted for offshore adventures, the Irwin Citation 41 offers a rare opportunity to own a distinctive yacht that comfortably bridges both worlds.
A survey from 2022 is available to view. Age of sails is unknown. Head also currently only discharges overboard, a holding tank will need to be installed. These are all reflected in the price.
