Shannon was founded in 1975 by Walter Schulz to design and build offshore yachts to the highest quality standards. Over the past 35 years, Shannons have earned an international reputation for the highest quality construction and offshore integrity. Shannon has more ocean miles by average husband and wife sailing teams than any other boat building company in the industry and has logged over one million ocean miles, including an impressive list of circumnavigations and transoceanic passages. Every major harbor in the world has been visited by a Shannon and our boatbuilding experience is an unbroken, evolutionary chain from Shannon 38 #1 to the present day.

The Shannon sailboat line ranges from our 35 foot Shoalsailer that sails in 30” of water to our 52 foot ocean passage makers. Our 38 HPS and 53 HPS are unrivaled as the best high power motorsailers available today and our pilot yachts provide an alternative for all-weather sailors. Every Shannon interior is customized to suit each specific owner’s needs and requirements.

Building your Shannon transcends the experience of simply creating your dream yacht. You also join our family of owners located at any given time in oceans and anchorages across the world.
