Overview
About this vessel
If you're looking for a cruising sailboat that's incredibly easy to sail, beautifully built, and far more spacious than anything else in its class, Cheshire Cat deserves a serious look. This is a standout example of the famous Mark Ellis design - a boat known for its simplicity, comfort, and rock-solid Canadian construction.
Owned since 2009, Cheshire Cat shows clear pride of ownership and has been maintained with exceptional care, upgraded continuously with detailed records and professional service from top local yards. She was hauled in May 2026 for fresh bottom paint, hull polish, and PropSpeed on the propeller. She's clean, dry, reliable, and absolutely turn-key.
The Nonsuch 36 is beloved for its cat-rig sail plan - no headsails, no shrouds, no complicated systems. Just one big, efficient sail on a free-standing mast. It's one of the easiest cruising boats to handle, especially for couples or single-handed sailors.
