1981 Niagara 35 – Proven Canadian Cruiser

This 1981 Niagara 35 by Mark Ellis, built by Hinterhoeller Yachts, is a respected Canadian cruiser known for solid construction, offshore capability, and a comfortable interior layout. Well suited for coastal cruising and extended weekends, the Niagara 35 delivers an excellent blend of performance, safety, and livability.

Below deck, the interior is warm and functional, offering a walk‑through galley with three‑burner stove and oven, pressure water, and refrigerated icebox. The salon features opposing settees with a drop‑leaf table, ample storage, and good headroom. Accommodations include a forward workshop/storage area and dual aft quarter berths, along with an enclosed head and navigation station.

Auxiliary power is provided by a New (2024) Beta Marine diesel (24 hp) with saildrive. Electrical systems include 12V DC, 120V AC shore power, shore charger, and solar charging. Electronics include Raymarine radar, autopilot, depth, speed, wind instruments, VHF radio, and compass.

A classic Mark Ellis design with proven cruising credentials, this is an excellent opportunity to own a solid, Canadian‑built cruising sailboat at an attractive value.
