AGGRESSIVE PRICE FOR A QUICK SALE AND NOT AN INDICATOR OF CONDITION. SELLER IS VERY MOTIVATED
ââ?¬Å?With one sail, one halyard, one sheet, and two winches, the Nonsuch 30 is the ultimate in uncomplicated sailing. The boat was introduced in 1978 as the first offering of Hinterhoeller Yachts of St. Catharines, Ontario, Canada, following George Hinterhoeller's split with C&C Yachts, and it remained in production until 1994. The design is from the board of Mark Ellis. It is unique in that it combines the distinctive shear, highly cambered roach roof and nearly plumb bow and stern of a Cape Cod-styled catboat with a moderate-aspect-ratio fin keel, low wetted surface and a partially balanced spade rudder below the waterline. The price of this modern underbody is a draft of five feet, considerably deeper than a traditional 30-foot catboat. The Nonsuch carries its 11'-10" beam out well towards the ends, as is typical of catboats. This results in interior volume and allows for accommodations that are spacious even when compared with more modern designs.ââ?¬ï¿½ ~ By Jack Hornor Revised by BoatUS editors in October 2012
Blue Dolphin is a nice example of the Nonsuch 30 Classic. Nicely maintained and lightly used, this yacht presents as a much newer yacht. This is your typical New England yacht seeing 3-4 months a year of in water time and the rest of the time on the hard and under cover. Priced competitively this yacht is an excellent coastal cruiser at a very good price.

The Biggest Pros and Cons
The 1983 Hinterhoeller Nonsuch 30 Classic is a distinctive sailboat known for its unique design and comfortable cruising capabilities. Here are some of its key pros and cons:
Pros
Unique Cat Rig Design: The Nonsuch 30 Classic features a cat rig with a single, large sail and no jib, making sail handling simpler and more manageable, especially for short-handed crews.
Spacious Interior: Thanks to its wide beam and innovative layout, the interior offers generous living space and comfortable accommodations for a 30-foot boat.
Solid Construction: Built by Hinterhoeller Yachts, the Nonsuch 30 Classic is known for its quality fiberglass construction and durability.
Stable and Comfortable: Its hull design provides good stability and a smooth ride, ideal for cruising.
Easy to Sail: The simple rigging and lack of headsails reduce complexity, making it easier for beginners or those seeking low-maintenance sailing.
Cons
Limited Upwind Performance: The cat rig and large mainsail can be less efficient upwind compared to sloop-rigged boats, resulting in lower pointing ability.
Less Sail Plan Flexibility: Without a jib or multiple sails, there are fewer options for sail combinations, which can limit performance in varying wind conditions.
Mast Location: The unstayed mast is stepped well forward, which may affect sail trim and balance differently than traditional rigs.
Resale Market: The unique design appeals to a niche market, which may impact resale value and buyer interest.
Deck Space: The wide beam can reduce usable cockpit space and make deck maneuvering somewhat different than on conventional sailboats.
