Serious flexing!

They were a cheaply made boat to fit a particular market and not for the serious cruiser. That seems to fit what many of you have said. Thanks all Gordon Did the surveyor say why Irwins "were not to be trusted offshore"? Are they prone to breaking up and sinking, thru hulls fall out, mast break off? What makes them dangerous offshore? Just like to know his reasons. krj |
