This boat is perfectly named as “Simplicity” is what the Canadian built Nonsuch is all about: one sail, one sheet, one halyard. We are thrilled to have a beautiful 30′ example on our Sales Dock as they very rarely come to market! Designed by Mark Ellis, Canadian Boating magazine sums up this cat-rigged vessel as ” being able to be sailed by 1 person who has no desire to leave the comfort of the cockpit”. But don’t let this description mislead you as there is tons of room inside and out for crew and guests. Topsides the large Main is easily handled hoisting via electric winch and lazy jacks make light work of folding the sail at the end of the day. All lines lead aft with self-tailing winches and the large cockpit is protected by a dodger and bimini. Anchoring is made easy by the Lewmar electric windlass and this vessel comes complete with davits for easy launching and recovery of a dinghy. Down below, the rig design creates an extremely open cabin space that feels much larger than her 30′ LOA. Entering the cabin you find a large comfortable seating area, galley with fridge/freezer, lots of storage, 2 burner stove and oven and pressurized hot and cold water. Moving forward, the large head (with separate shower stall that can also be used as a wet locker) can be accessed either through the main cabin or by the forward master cabin with large pullman style berth and opening hatches and ports for ventilation throughout the vessel. Available to view by appointment, Simplicity comes with assumable moorage at our popular Sidney location. Please contact our Vancouver Island Sales Office at 250-656-5832 to schedule a showing.
We celebrate three remarkable years of Alea, a 56-meter aluminium sloop designed by Mani Frers and built by Vitters Shipyard. Her elegant interior was crafted by the design studio MAtelier based in Milan, seamlessly combining refined aesthetics with comfort and functionality. Construction of Alea began in spring 2020. Despite the challenges, Vitters delivered the yacht in July 2022. Alea is a yacht that perfectly reflects the DNA of our shipyard, a project we are extremely proud of. Alea features a spacious owner's suite with an ensuite bathroom located forward. The guest cabins are located to starboard aft, while the crew occupies the port side aft. A standout feature is the generous lazarette, which houses a 7-meter tender and can easily be converted into a proper beach club offering a direct connection to the sea. Her rig is built to Panamax specifications, allowing Alea to clear the Bridge of the Americas over the Panama Canal. @vittersshipyard
Our hike to the Sand Cave in the Cumberland Mts. It is actually a half dome cave that is 250' wide and the interior is 1.25 acres. From the opening the sand slopes up to the rear of the cave. A very unique geological formation for the area. We clocked over 10.5 miles and 2,200' of elevation.
