You are welcome to come see Heron.  She is not for sale, but you can get an idea of her great design. She is in the midst of a refit, on Gibson Island, Maryland. 1980 Pearson Pilothouse, hull #26.

I bought Heron in the fall in Annapolis, and yes, a previous owner had taken out the settees and table.  The nav table is still in place.  We are restoring Heron, and she will soon have new settees and dinette table.  If anyone has any tips on what works and doesn't work with Shaw's original plans for this, please let me know.  I have heard that it is "tight" sliding into the settee, so I am considering minor alterations, such as a leaf in the table when we want a smaller surface area.
We are taking Heron on a grand adventure in 2015, the Great Loop.  Meanwhile, she needs attention everywhere.  Fun project.
