1980 Nonsuch 30 Classic | 23hp Volvo Diesel | 2019 Mainsail | Full Enclosure | Sleeps 6 | Dinghy w/ 4hp engine | Cradle | Little Current, ON
The Nonsuch 30 Classic is one of Canada's most sought-after cruising sailboats, renowned for its simple sail handling, spacious accommodations, and exceptional build quality. Designed by Mark Ellis and built by Hinterhoeller Yachts, she offers the comfort of a much larger boat while remaining easy to single-hand or cruise as a couple.
Lovingly owned for the past 13 years, this 1980 Nonsuch 30 has benefited from numerous upgrades including a Triton mainsail (2019), reupholstered interior cushions (2022), an on-demand hot water heater, and a recent 2026 survey. Powered by a dependable 23HP Volvo diesel with sail drive and folding propeller, she's ready for her next adventure.
Below deck, you'll find a bright and spacious salon with 6'3" headroom, teak & holly flooring, abundant storage, a well-equipped L-shaped galley, and comfortable accommodations for family and friends. The large cockpit is complete with a full canvas enclosure and cockpit cushions for extended time on the water.
