The Marlin Heritage 23, produced by the venerable Cape Cod Shipbuilding Co., is a fiberglass realization of one of Nathanael Herreshoff’s most enduring designs. Originally conceived in 1937 as a "big sister" to the iconic Fishers Island 12 ½ (the Bull’s Eye), the Marlin was designed to provide a more robust, offshorecapable platform while maintaining the graceful lines and legendary handling of its smaller siblings. Since acquiring the rights to the Herreshoff designs in 1947, Cape Cod Shipbuilding has refined the Marlin into the "Heritage 23" edition, a vessel that balances the aesthetics of a prewar wooden yacht with the structural integrity of modern, handlaid fiberglass.
