Niagara Nautic, later reborn as Aztec Yachts, was started by my wife’s late 
husband, Henk Zwart and Henri Adriaanse (along with silent partner Jay Dubbeld) 
in the mid 70s. You know about Henri already. Henk worked in the development 
shop making molds with George Hinterhoeller at C&C before this. They designed 
and first built the Nautilus 40 pilothouse, then the Nautilus 36 pilothouse 
which was updated into the Nautilus 11m when Aztec was formed. These are very 
solid, well-built boats and were all pretty much custom boats for each owner 
since they were a small shop and the interiors were somewhat stick built. If 
you want to know more about these boats, the guy who knows the most is Art Epp, 
a later partner in the business. I asked if he minded me posting his email and 
he gave a thumbs-up <art_...@yahoo.com <mailto:art_...@yahoo.com>>.

The company in St. Catharines that Doug mentioned is Neptunus Yachts, located 
in the former Hinterhoeller Yachts building where I worked back in the 80s. 
Later Saga Yachts and Turner Yachts were in the same industrial park with many 
of the same people - former Hinterhoeller and C&C people who kept recirculating 
in the Niagara boat ecosystem.
