About this yacht
Nonsuch 26 "Encore" – Comfortable, Easy-to-Sail Cruiser with Recent Upgrades
The Nonsuch 26 remains one of the most popular pocket cruisers ever built, offering remarkable interior space, simple sail handling, and comfortable accommodations in a manageable 26-foot package. Built by the renowned Hinterhoeller Yachts, the Nonsuch 26 was designed to provide quality cruising for both entry-level boating families and experienced sailors looking to downsize without sacrificing comfort.
Encore is a well-cared-for example that has benefited from attentive ownership and important recent upgrades. A new Yanmar engine installed in 2018 provides reliable power, while a new mainsail added in 2024 ensures she is ready to deliver enjoyable sailing performance for years to come. Her spacious interior, practical layout, and easy-to-handle cat-rig make her an ideal choice for day sailing, weekend cruising, and exploring local waters with confidence and ease.
Whether you're entering the cruising lifestyle or seeking a comfortable and manageable yacht for your next chapter on the water, Encore is worthy of serious consideration.
Located in Sales Tax–Free North Kingstown, Rhode Island, she is available for viewing by appointment. Call today to schedule a showing.
