PRICED TO SELL!!

Heron is a tried and tested, TURN KEY blue water cruiser! This vessel sailed from Netherlands to the Caribbean where the owners cruised for several years before coming to the USA and cruising the ICW and East Coast. They spent most of their time at anchor, so Heron is totally set up for self-sufficiency. The solar panels (870W) keep the Lithium batteries charged & there is enough power to cook with the induction. The Hydrovane aids with energy savings on long passages.

The Beneteau 393 is a very popular cruising boat, as the 2-cabin, 2-head layout, with credenza in the salon and large galley, make this model very ‘liveable’. The heater in the salon allow for sailing in colder climes

• Volvo Penta 55HP engine (installed 2024)
• 1 x NAPA 12V Engine start battery (7/24)
