Trawlers Next Chapter

Next Chapter is a well-maintained 2003 Heritage East 42 Sundeck that blends comfort, capability, and practicality. Her 2-stateroom, 2-head layout makes her an excellent choice for extended cruising or living aboard, offering a spacious interior with a thoughtfully arranged main cabin that includes the salon, galley, and dinette. The forward guest stateroom provides comfortable accommodations, while the full-beam aft master stateroom features an island queen berth for optimal owner comfort.

Powered by reliable twin Cummins 220 HP engines, Next Chapter is also equipped with a Northern Lights 8 kW generator, a Weaver tender davit system, and an Achilles HB315LX inflatable RIB with a 15 HP Yamaha 2-stroke outboard. Raymarine electronics provide capable navigation.

The flybridge is both functional and inviting, protected by a bimini top and full isinglass enclosure—an ideal space for cruising or entertaining. The spacious sundeck offers another comfortable area for relaxing, dining, or socializing.

Well-equipped, reliable, and proven underway, Next Chapter is fully prepared for her next adventure.

Client Testimonials

«When things weren't working out with my previous Yacht Broker, a friend of mine suggested that I contact Yacht Access to sell my Sea Ray. I contacted Dan Paolillo at Yacht Access and there was absolutely no pressure. After our initial conversation Dan followed up with a list of comparable vessels recently sold and a list of similar vessels currently available with asking prices. After looking over the information we decided on an asking price and within 90 days Dan had my yacht under contract. Two weeks later it was sold. Since then we've kept in close touch and will hopefully be closing on my next vessel soon. After no success selling my 48' Sea Ray Sedan Bridge with my previous broker, calling Yacht Access was the best decision I ever made. I would encourage anyone looking to buy or sell to contact these professionals.»
