INTRODUCTION

Only Alerion 33 with full lifelines on the market​!

Well cared for, well equipped and presented in true ‘sail away’ condition. Great Lakes freshwater usage only with indoor heated storage up to May of 2019! Alerion 33s are an excellent option for solo or shorthanded sailing, with all control lines led to the helm and the ability to sail upwind in 20 kts of true wind without having to reef. Recent laminate sails, electronics ($20K), canvas (including winter Fairclough cover), running rigging and a race bottom are just some of the reasons why HERON presents great value. In the water in Essex, CT, in full commission!
