Introduction HEATHER K is a Classic, two stateroom, two head Grand Banks Trawler that was purchased by her current owners in 1998. They have found her to an ideal boat for cruising, and have cruised her from British Columbia to the Panama and through the Panama Canal. Once in the Atlantic they cruised the up the East Coast of the U.S. to New Brunswick arriving in August of 2002. In 2003 they cruised the inland waters from New York City to Montreal and Ottawa via the canals, and then back South on the Hudson. 2004 saw her in the Chesapeake and then in late 2005 her trip to Florida.
She is fully equipped for cruising and as you continue reading you will have to concur on the fine job the owner's have done with HEATHER K.
