Other Shannon boats for sale in Maine, United States
Gorgeous new exterior varnish job just completed
Shannons are high quality sailboats known for their soundness of construction, seaworthiness, and attractive lines as discussed in some detail in Ferenc Mate's book, "The Worlds Best Sailboats".
All Shannon sailboats are "semi custom", with the hull being standard and everything else custom designed through discussions with the owner. Thus, it takes some time to build one, and they are rather expensive. A significant factor in the cost lies in the owner's specifications.
"The Shannon 39 is an extremely well-built and finished product. It is a boat that one would quickly come to know and feel safe in no matter how harsh the conditions. Comfortable below and on deck, she is destined to become the final yacht purchase for a lot of experienced cruisers" -Sailing
The classic lines, beauty and ease of handling make the Shannon 39 the perfect boat for a single hander or couple to sail and live aboard. They are extremely well built and excellent ocean sailing capability with speed and seaworthiness.
MISTIE is a Shannon 39, essentially an upgraded version of the very popular Shannon 38, There are only 9 of these boats in existence and she is the prettiest, with her teak rub rail and 4 teak framed cockpit cubby holes rather than the usual 2 large unframed ones. The interior finish is all teak with white cabin overhead and many little extras such as wine storage and extra drawers built into the salon table and the salon side of the galley counter. The keel stepped mast is located out of sight in the head.
In 2014, Shannon estimated that a new 39 built to similar specifications would be priced around $800,000.
