Moulded from an Easticks 28 hull, and built by Colin Facey (privately commissioned), White Heather is an excellent all round Broads River Cruiser ideal for both cruising and racing. She offers low maintenance thanks to her GRP hull, and the convenience of a diesel inboard engine which was rebuilt in January 2018. She is easily sailed by two, and is even set up for single handed sailing! For sale due to the current owners needing a fifth berth.

It’s understood that diesel engine could be moved into a locker to free up additional cabin space and the vendors have obtained a quote for doing so which can be made available to prospective purchasers if required.

PLEASE NOTE: The photos of this vessel date from 2015 when she was purchased by the current owners. We understand that she is presented in a similar condition at this time and new photos will be made available as soon as possible.

UPDATE APRIL 2018: Price substantially reduced for a quick sale!
