1981 Hinterhoeller
“CARINA”
Description
The Hinterhoeller Niagara 35 is one of the most respected Canadian built sailboats of its era. Designed by Mark Ellis and built by Hinterhoeller Yachts, the Niagara 35 developed a reputation for exceptional build quality, seaworthiness, and comfortable cruising accommodations.
Stepping aboard, you'll immediately notice the Niagara's traditional cruising profile, The moderate beam, substantial freeboard, and clean deck layout reflect an era when offshore capability was prioritized over marina dock appeal. The side decks are wide and secure, making movement forward easy even in rough conditions. Sturdy teak handrails and high lifelines provide confidence underway. The cockpit is deep and comfortable with a teak cockpit table, two-year old cockpit cushions, a grill and a dodger to break the wind and elements. The cockpit lockers are generous and provide storage for fenders, dock lines, spare gear, and safety equipment. A large wheel provides excellent visibility over the cabin top.
The Hinterhoeller Niagara 35 earned its reputation because of its robust construction. Notable features include fiberglass hull construction, lead ballast, heavy displacement design, strong offshore-oriented structure, and excellent tracking and directional stability.
