Heaven’s Door is a classic 1981 Niagara 35—designed by Mark Ellis and built by Hinterhoeller Yachts—for sailors who dream of distance cruising. With her heavy displacement hull, fin keel, and skeg-hung rudder, she balances offshore capability with manageable handling, making her a favorite among serious cruisers. Whether you're coastal hopping or eyeing the horizon, this Niagara 35 is built to carry you there in comfort and confidence. Her current owner is an avid sailor and sail maker who has taken pride in ownership.
The unique interior layout—well-known for its “galley and head position, along proper nav station, and generous main salon”—offers comfort and functionality without sacrificing seaworthiness. The layout features 2 quarterberths in a cabin just inside the companionway, with the galley to port and the head to starboard separating the main saloon. This makes for a highly functional set up; maximizing space for galley use, creating a large forward cabin/saloon area for entertaining. a roomy V-berth forward, and an aft quarter berth or storage/workshop, Heaven’s Door has the bones to serve as a full-time live-aboard or capable ocean cruiser. The 90-gallon freshwater tankage and large storage capacity make extended stays onboard practical and self-sufficient.
Above deck, the Niagara 35 has earned a reputation for reliable performance, solid deck hardware, and clean sail handling. She’s quick enough in light air, yet solid and reassuring in heavy seas. The Niagara 35 remains a highly sought-after design—especially among Great Lakes sailors and cruisers preparing for offshore routes—thanks to her exceptional build quality and timeless proportions. Heaven’s Door is your chance to own a respected, proven cruiser with enduring value.
