The Hinterhoeller Nonsuch 26 Classic represents a paradigm shift in the design of midsized cruising sailboats. Launched in 1980 following the massive success of the Nonsuch 30, the 26foot variant was designed by Mark Ellis to provide the interior volume and stability of a much larger vessel within a manageable, trailerfriendly (albeit wide) footprint. The "Classic" designation refers to the original interior layout, which prioritized an open, airy cabin over the more compartmentalized "Ultra" version that followed in 1983. Built to the rigorous standards of George Hinterhoeller in St. Catharines, Ontario, the Nonsuch 26 utilized an unstayed catboat rig—a choice that was revolutionary at the time and remains a hallmark of the Mark Ellis Design philosophy. By eliminating shrouds, spreaders, and stays, Hinterhoeller produced a boat that is remarkably easy to singlehand while offering an interior beam that defies its 26foot length.
