Heiress
WELCOME ABOARD THE CLASSIC ALBIN 36 TRAWLER!
There were approximately 500 Albin 36 Trawlers made in Taiwan. Heiress is a fantastic example of why these are such a great classic trawler with a comfortable salon, two staterooms and two heads.
This is a truly loved and cared for yacht. Her bright work gleams from stem to stern. The hull shines like it was new. No blisters on this strong robust hull. The boat was hauled in May and new bottom paint and zincs were applied. The hull bottom was re-epoxied 4 years ago with 2 new coats of epoxy. The stainless steel rudder is painted and the new propeller is coated with prop speed.
The owners of Heiress are meticulous in every way. This is the kind of boat that shows the pride of ownership. Well experienced yachtsmen know how to take care of their boats and know the value of a strict maintenance program. Buyers for these types of boats are eternally grateful for inheriting this quality and discipline.
YOU DON’T BUY A BOAT LIKE THIS, YOU BECOME THE HEIR AND HEIRESS.

As you go onboard you will note that there is a new AB RIB tender with a Tohatsu 5hp propane outboard. Weaver davits enable easy storage and launching. Your eyes will be treated with the 7 coats of Epiphane Varnish on the window frames, hatches and door frames. Enter through the cabin door on the Portside and you can instantly feel and see that this is loved.
The White, diamond tufted, U-shaped settee welcomes you on board. The Teak drop down table invites you to spend as much time as you can. The Galley is immediately on your left as you enter. You have a NovaKool fridge, stainless steel sink, spotless Force 10 3 burner stove with oven and a Microwave. There are lots of cupboards and drawers for stowing all your cups and dishes and wine glass and bottle racks. There is a special pull-out drawer for your pots and pans and a large pantry cupboard under the steering seat.
The huge windows, which have all been nicely re-caulked, drench the salon in sunlight. A sense of comfort immediately takes over.
The Helm Station is ahead of the settee on the Starboard side. There is a classic wooden destroyer type wheel and a door to starboard that takes the captain out when docking or undocking. The main helm station instruments include a Standard Horizon VHF with GPS and AIS, a Standard Horizon chart plotter with a fish finder module, a AP28 Simrad autopilot with Rudder indication, a Raytheon radar display and a classic compass. The Morse controls to starboard are waiting for your command.

It also has plenty of drawers and a nice big hanging locker.
