The Bruno & Stillman 35 is a remarkable Downeast-style boat designed by Royal Lowell. It’s a versatile vessel suitable for both cruising and fishing. Key features include spacious cockpit, solid fiberglass construction and a proven hull design that has appealed to both the recreational and commercial market.

Ellie is arguably one of the nicest examples of the Bruno Stillman 35. Built out as a cruising boat, Ellie exudes the essence to the Downeast boat design. Stored year on year in an indoor heated storage facility and maintained by the well-respected Safe Harbor Rockland, Maine team, Ellie offers a great opportunity to own one of these well-respected vessels.
