Description

Blue Heron stands out with her stunning freshly painted blue hull (2023) and attractive upgraded Teak interior! She was built by Marlow-Hunter in Alachua, FL, with a CE Category A/10 Ocean rating and exhibits the highest quality throughout, thanks to Mr. Marlow's demanding standards.

Unique features and upgrades include the Anniversary Edition Package and Mariners Package offered by Marlow-Hunter. Blue Heron's extensive list of desirable features includes twin helms, a fold-down transom, in-mast furling, a bow thruster, AC, and a Targa Top (hard bimini). The B&R rig with the Selden in-mast mainsail furling system and the furling 130% genoa make sailing easy for a couple. The optional shoal draft keel (5' 2") and ICW-friendly air draft (less than 65') are perfect for worry-free coastal cruising. Blue Heron has an upgraded 54 HP Yanmar with less than 800 hours, an upgraded 3-blade Flex-O-Fold propeller, and a bow thruster, improving maneuverability in tight spaces.

Her meticulous owners recently had the hull and bottom professionally painted and added a new Side-Power 100 bow thruster, a new custom Dodger with the highest quality glass and grab rails, custom cockpit cushions, an Icom IC-M506 with remote Command mike, Shakespeare VHF antenna, Raymarine AIS-700, Jabsco elongated electric toilets and more.

Blue Heron is in a slip at Charleston Harbor Resort and Marina in Mount Pleasant, SC. A pre-listing survey was completed in May 2023 and is available upon request. Blue Heron is an excellent value!
