1986 Heritage East Sundeck

This 36-foot Heritage East Sundeck is a fiberglass trawler built around a notably spacious interior for her size. Two staterooms, two heads, and 6 feet 5 inches of headroom in the salon provide comfortable accommodation for extended cruising or liveaboard use. The cabin layout flows from a forward guest quarters with V-berth and hanging locker, through a galley to port, up to the lower helm and salon with settee and lounge seating, then down to an aft master stateroom with queen berth and ensuite head. Teak cabinetry and joinery throughout reflect quality construction.

On deck, the fully enclosed flybridge and covered sundeck both serve navigation and entertaining. The flybridge seats six around the helm with unobstructed views, while the aft sundeck provides seating, a wet bar with sink, and isinglass enclosure for weather protection. A fiberglass swim platform sits at the transom. Molded fiberglass non-skid surfaces cover all deck areas. The single Ford Lehman diesel produces 135 horsepower and runs 2,841 reported hours, paired with bow and stern thrusters for maneuvering in tight spaces.

The Lehman engine, long-respected for reliability, is supported by a Westerbeke 6 kW diesel generator, hydraulic steering, and a shaft seal repacked in 2023. Fuel capacity stands at approximately 400 gallons in factory encased tanks. A Sitex autopilot with new hydraulics, Garmin GPSMAP7400 chart plotter with radar, and electric windlass handle navigation and deck work. Air conditioning, a 6-gallon hot water heater, and a full galley with dual stainless sinks, stove, refrigerator, and microwave support comfortable living.

Recent updates include mattresses and seat cushions replaced in 2018, new isinglass enclosures in 2023, and bottom paint applied in December 2025. The boat underwent professional inspection and repairs following storm damage, with deck refinishing and exterior teak work completed as part of that process. House batteries include four units, two installed new in 2024; the engine start battery was replaced in 2025.
