Heritage's history is closely tied to Bainbridge Island. She was designed by Bainbridge Island's own world famous naval architect, Ed Monk, Sr., and built by another islander, Bud Forder, who subcontracted with the Grandy Boat Company of Seattle for 28 sister ships that were fitted out by Grandy. She is a model of a trunk cabin cruiser, and started her life in 1947. Over the last 66 years she has been cared for by six owners. She has been a source of much enjoyment for the McGonagle family of Bainbridge Island for the last 30 years on day cruises in the local waters of Puget Sound and on annual vacation cruises to the San Juan Islands and Canadian waters.
