"The Clarion" is a 1957 24' Shepherd Runabout built in Niagare-on-the-Lake, Ontario. Serial #-57-24-33. These boats reached their peak in popularity and production in the 1950's- early 1960's, and have had a loyal following ever since. Particularly practical boats, with spacious interiors that carry many passengers, they are also great boats in large bodies of water and can handle a lot of chop. Many consider this 24' model to be their best, as it was spacious, but also a quick and efficient hull when compared to the 27' model. 
"The Clarion" belonged to a Canadian mining magnate, and was fully restored with a new bottom and twin Crusader V-6 powerplants before his untimely passing in 1988. The boat sat in storage for 30 years, only being used a handful of times. In 2021, it was brought to Breen Boats for a refinish as the finish was peeling off. The hull and deck were stripped, re-stained, and varnished. The deck was given new grout, and the interior re-finished as well. Engines and mechanical systems were checked over, and thoroughly tested. The bottom was also checked over and painted. New upholstery installed at this time.
