Bruckmann+Ellis Yachts continues a Downeast tradition built on proven hull forms, efficient performance, and uncompromising craftsmanship. The brand’s lineup — Abaco 35, Abaco 40, Abaco 47, and the Bruckmann 50MK II Motorsailer — carries forward a legacy of design and building excellence, with a name that honors both Mark Bruckmann and Mark Ellis. Niche Watercraft acquired the brand’s assets, tooling, and intellectual property to continue that legacy, and now builds the full Bruckmann+Ellis lineup.
Each yacht is built in partnership with an experienced team of U.S. builders and contractors, using modern composite construction methods matched to its engineering specification. The result is a lineup built for owners who want to customize the build their way, with proven on-water performance and value that holds for decades.
