33' Hylan/Brendze Cruiser (2018) - EASTWARD

Be on the Water This Season with EASTWARD!

Why build new at greater cost when “as good as new” is waiting for you right now?

EASTWARD was custom-designed and built in 2017-2018 by seasoned professionals with hundreds of years of combined experience creating capable cruising boats. She reflects L.Francis Herreshoff’s timeless philosophy:

“Simplicity afloat is the surest guarantee of happiness.”

EASTWARD’S modern wood construction is exceptionally low-maintenance, and no expense was spared in achieving her classic lines and fine details. From her Herreshoff / custom-made, bronze hardware to her classic Down East maritime heritage, every element speaks to both functional excellence and aesthetic harmony.

Designed for the Way You Want to Cruise

With comfortable accommodations for up to six people, EASTWARD is perfectly suited for relaxed family cruising or entertaining overnight guests.

EASTWARD is also perfect for:

Single-handing
Romantic cruises for two
Day trips and picnics
Family outings — with dog

EASTWARD feels equally at home along a working waterfront or tied up at the yacht club float. Her shoal draft allows you to escape the maddening crowd to quieter anchorages and explore waters most boats simply cannot reach.

Arguably the penultimate small cruiser, she was also thoughtfully designed to be trailered behind a Pickup. Change cruising grounds hundreds of miles apart from one day to the next with ease!

Her composting head eliminates the need for a conventional black-water holding tank, providing a clean, odor-free solution that can be discreetly arranged in three private locations.

EASTWARD also offers excellent CHARTER POTENTIAL for paying passengers.

Quiet, Reliable Power

Power comes from a dependable 115hp Yamaha four-stroke outboard, discreetly housed in a separate compartment. This means:

No loud, smelly diesel
A wide-open, spacious cockpit and cabin
Relaxed, quiet cruising at 8–10 knots

You can actually enjoy a quiet conversation underway — try that with a diesel.

Her modern electrical system includes:

State-of-the-art 3-battery, 12-volt system with charger and inverter
Auxiliary solar charging
Complete RayMarine navigation electronics

Built for Fun, Comfort and Versatility

EASTWARD is a real head-turner, admired by seasoned watermen and landlubbers alike. Wherever she goes, she draws interest and admiration. She will make you new friends.

Many friends — both new and old — have gathered aboard for homemade chowder prepared at her complete galley and served at her handsome teak table, which comfortably seats eight. This ingenious table can remain in use while underway or disappear seamlessly into the cockpit sole when stowed.

EASTWARD is Truly One of a Kind
