Description
"Avalon" is a Royal Lowell designed, Downeast boat custom built by Shannon Boat Company in Bristol, RI. She should not be confused with a Shannon Voyager. The Voyager model is a different design and layout. "Avalon's linage traces back to the Bruno Stillman 35, Harris Cuttyhunk 36 and the Nauset 36.
"Avalon" underwent a complete Hull Up Refit in 2018 when every system on the vessel was updated with “new” including all electrical and mechanical systems, plumbing, upholstery, canvas, instrumentation and propulsion.
The interior is handcrafted in the classic Herreshoff style of white surfaces mixed with varnished hardwood joinery including the solid teak & holly cabin sole. Every space available has been made accessible to maximize storage with drawers, doors and lockers.
Entering the main cabin the salon has port and starboard settees with a centerline drop-leaf table. Both settees extend for that little extra room for when they are used as berths.
Forward in the salon is the lower helm station with seat to starboard and the companion’s navigation seat with flip-up chart table. Both of the seatbacks fold down for additional flat surfaces for use when entertaining or just lounging.
The very efficient U-shape galley is down and to port but is open above so is not isolated from the main cabin.
Across from galley is an enclosed head that is unique in a boat of this size as it has a separate stall shower.
Forward is the owner’s stateroom with an offset queen berth, with a custom memory foam mattress & linens, hanging locker, drawers, shelves, lockers and screens for opening ports and the overhead hatch.
“Avalon” attracts attention everywhere she goes and she has won multiple Platinum Awards at the Antique & Classic Boat Society’s annual festival held at the Chesapeake Bay Maritime Museum in St Michael's, MD.
A comfortable, stable and efficient cruising platform, "Avalon" has cruised the Triangle Loop, Downeast Maine, the length of the Chesapeake Bay and is ready for more adventures with her new owners.

Dan is a lifelong boater with extensive experience navigating the waters of the Chesapeake Bay and the East Coast, enjoying both powerboating and sailing. His current boat is a 35-foot pleasure version of a Chesapeake Bay deadrise, custom-built by Evans Boats in Crisfield, MD. With over 48 years in the marine industry, Dan has worked closely with boaters across marinas, boatyards, and yacht sales. Raised in Annapolis, Dan began boating at the age of four, following his parents’ purchase of their first sailboat. Since then, he has owned and managed numerous family and personal boats, including sailboats, trawlers, downeast, sportfish and motor yachts styles ranging from 26 to 73 feet. He learned to operate a powerboat on a classic 34’ Chesapeake Bay wooden deadrise that was originally built to hand tong oysters on the James River of Virginia.
In 1980, Dan’s family relocated to Gloucester Point, Virginia, where they acquired York River Yacht Haven. Under Dan’s leadership, the marina expanded into a full-service facility featuring 325 slips, a working boatyard, ship’s store, yacht sales, an oyster farm, and a restaurant. Over his 33-year tenure, Dan managed every department, ultimately serving as General Manager.
After the marina was sold in 2013, Dan returned to Annapolis to pursue his passion for yacht sales, helping boat buyers and sellers fulfill their needs. His interests extend beyond the boating world, particularly in Chesapeake Bay restoration, aquaculture, and sustainable waterfront development. He served an 8-year term on the Dean’s Advisory Council for the Virginia Institute of Marine Science and worked with the Army Corps of Engineers to grow over 15 million oysters through York River Yacht Haven’s aquaculture division. These oysters contributed to restoration efforts in the Great Wicomico and Lynnhaven Rivers, and the project demonstrated that marinas can have a positive environmental impact.
Dan remains deeply committed to these environmental causes and continues to advocate for sustainable solutions in the marine industry.
