Worth knowing
David Heritage Racing Yachts; cover, cost and conditions
David Heritage Racing Yachts is a British yard in Cowes on the Isle of Wight that concentrates on keelboats for racing. It builds new Etchells and Victory class boats and restores older class boats such as X Boats, Y Boats, Squibs and Quarter Tonners. Within the Etchells class Heritage is one of the recognised builders. After a winter of development work with experienced sailors, new moulds were made to finer tolerances so that the components fit together more precisely. The boats stand out through the slim Etchells profile and a very careful standard of finish.
Our model records list one design for David Heritage Racing Yachts, the Etchells 22 at 9.29 metres, entered as a sailing boat with build years from 1999 to 2013. The Etchells goes back to a design by E. W. Etchells from 1966, drawn for the trials for a new Olympic keelboat. It is a glass fibre Bermuda sloop with a lead keel, raced by a crew of three, and it has been an international class since 1974. Several yards in different countries build the Etchells, and our records show the boats from Cowes.
A used Etchells is first of all a racing boat, so a buyer should ask how hard it has been campaigned. Check the keel joint and the hull around the keel for any sign of movement or repair, the mast step and chainplates, and the rudder bearings. The rig and the sail wardrobe matter a great deal in a one design class, as does the class measurement certificate. These boats are raced in fleets on the Solent and in many other regions, often kept ashore on a trailer or a cradle between events and lifted in for racing.
