Seller's Description
The Creekmore 34 is a great bluewater cruiser with more living room than most 40’ sailboats I have owned. This boat has seen lots of offshore passages throughout the Caribbean & The East Coast. The diesel engine, rigging and sails are all in good shape. The 155% head sail is on a Harkin furler and the new 100% sail is just behind it on a second Harkin Furler. There are an assortment of Light air sails below. The boat handles bad weather offshore well. 6’ headroom. Master bed is king size
Equipment: Yanmar 4JHE 45 HP diesel, Nextgen 3.5kw diesel generator, 2000 watt inverter charger,Balmar high output alternator with 3 stage regulator, Propane stove and oven, 12volt DC refrigeration, 3 Kyocera KC130 solar panels with Outback MPPT solar controller, Bluetooth stereo, Raritan PHII manual head and holding tank, 12volt electric anchor windless w all chain rode, Delta 45lb anchor, Propane BBQ, Dive tank and equipment, 2 personal epirbs, fishing rods, hurricane lines and spare rodes, Large Fortress anchor, Cruisair 16,000 btu AC/ heat, Standard VHF below w remote cockpit mic, Simrad Autopilot, Raymarine depthfinder, Raymarine Wind direction and speed, Furuno GP31 Gps, 12volt Apinglow lighting throughout, 12v fans throughout, Charts,spares, 10’Hypalon RIB with sunbrella cover, Nissan 5hp outboard both like new.

7.7 kn
Classic: 7.28 kn
Hull Speed
The theoretical maximum speed that a displacement hull can move efficiently through the water is determined by it's waterline length and displacement. It may be unable to reach this speed if the boat is underpowered or heavily loaded, though it may exceed this speed given enough power. Read more.
Formula
Classic hull speed formula:
Hull Speed = 1.34 x √LWL
A more accurate formula devised by Dave Gerr in The Propeller Handbook replaces the Speed/Length ratio constant of 1.34 with a calculation based on the Displacement/Length ratio.
Max Speed/Length ratio = 8.26 ÷ Displacement/Length ratio.311
Hull Speed = Max Speed/Length ratio x √LWL
- Sail Area/Displacement
-
14.3
<16: under powered
Sail Area / Displacement Ratio
A measure of the power of the sails relative to the weight of the boat. The higher the number, the higher the performance, but the harder the boat will be to handle. This ratio is a "non-dimensional" value that facilitates comparisons between boats of different types and sizes. Read more.
Formula
SA/D = SA ÷ (D ÷ 64)2/3
- SA: Sail area in square feet, derived by adding the mainsail area to 100% of the foretriangle area (the lateral area above the deck between the mast and the forestay).
- D: Displacement in pounds.
- Ballast/Displacement
- ?
Ballast / Displacement Ratio
A measure of the stability of a boat's hull that suggests how well a monohull will stand up to its sails. The ballast displacement ratio indicates how much of the weight of a boat is placed for maximum stability against capsizing and is an indicator of stiffness and resistance to capsize.
Formula
Ballast / Displacement * 100
- Displacement/Length
-
295.8
200-300: moderate
Displacement / Length Ratio
A measure of the weight of the boat relative to it's length at the waterline. The higher a boat’s D/L ratio, the more easily it will carry a load and the more comfortable its motion will be. The lower a boat's ratio is, the less power it takes to drive the boat to its nominal hull speed or beyond. Read more.
Formula
D/L = (D ÷ 2240) ÷ (0.01 x LWL)³
- D: Displacement of the boat in pounds.
- LWL: Waterline length in feet
- Comfort Ratio
-
32.6
30-40: moderate bluewater cruising boat
Comfort Ratio
This ratio assess how quickly and abruptly a boat’s hull reacts to waves in a significant seaway, these being the elements of a boat’s motion most likely to cause seasickness. Read more.
Formula
Comfort ratio = D ÷ (.65 x (.7 LWL + .3 LOA) x Beam1.33)
- D: Displacement of the boat in pounds
- LWL: Waterline length in feet
- LOA: Length overall in feet
- Beam: Width of boat at the widest point in feet
- Capsize Screening
-
1.8
<2.0: better suited for ocean passages
Capsize Screening Formula
This formula attempts to indicate whether a given boat might be too wide and light to readily right itself after being overturned in extreme conditions. Read more.
Formula
CSV = Beam ÷ ³√(D / 64)
- Beam: Width of boat at the widest point in feet
- D: Displacement of the boat in pounds
Notes
Little about this model is known by us, besides a widely disseminated account of an abandoned CREEKMORE 34 that was cut in half, 3 feet was added at the midsection creating the ENDEAVOUR 37.
Of these, 476 were sold.
