DESCRIPTION:
OverviewNIGHT HERON is a meticulously maintained 1987 Tartan 40 that is a wonderful example of the level of craftmanship at the time from Tartan Yachts. She is a testament to the genius of its design, conceived by Sparkman & Stephens during their prolific era between the mid-1970s and mid-1980s. Tim Jackett collaborated with S&S to design the Tartan 40, ensuring its interior was well-suited for ocean sailing.
The current owner has enjoyed cruising NIGHT HERON on the Chesapeake Bay for the past four years and has taken phenomenal care of her during his stewardship. Recent upgrades include new dodger and bimini with strataglass, new B&G electronics and new Kato stainless steel dinghy davits.
NIGHT HERON combines the classic design elements of Sparkman & Stephens with modern upgrades, making it a superb choice for Bluewater sailing. She is currently lying in Annapolis and ready to go cruising today.
Highlights:
- New B&G Electronics
- New Dinghy Davits
- New Bimini and Dodger with Strataglass
- Classic Teak Interior
- LED Overhead Lights
