Ahoy! If you’ve been dreaming of an adventure-ready vessel, Shearwave, a 1981 Niagara 35, is the perfect match.
The Niagara 35, crafted by designer Mark Ellis, was produced from 1978 to 1995, earning a stellar reputation as a top-tier liveaboard cruiser capable of handling long voyages with ease. Nearly 300 of these boats were constructed in Niagara-on-the-Lake, Ontario, by George Hinterhoeller, who was also the former president of C&C and the builder of Nonsuch yachts.
While the Niagara 35 features an unconventional layout, it was purposefully designed as a reliable cruising vessel. Hinterhoeller’s commitment to exceptional craftsmanship and attention to detail has contributed to these boats maintaining strong resale values over time.
