Seller's Description

This sailboat is ready to go!

Her name is Wild Rover, she is 34’ long and has many great attributes. Last summer we had 4 adults aboard for an extended cruise of 2 months.

LOA: 33’6” Beam: 10’ Draft: 5’ Displacement: 10,200 lbs

On the inside: U-shaped Galley to port with 3-burner gimbaled stove with oven, 3 upper shelves for dishes, Large top-loading ice box with refrigeration/freezer(compressor was just pressure and leak tested and refilled), stainless steel sink with pressurized hot and cold water, and a salt water foot pump.

To starboard is the quarter berth and navigation station with light, Raymarine radar, Si-tex vhf radio with AIS, 300 amp inverter, and am/fm/cd radio, SSB radio, and EPIRB that needs new battery.

Under companionway stairs is the repowered Yanmar 3YM30, 890 hrs, with V Drive transmission, new 80 amp alternator and belt, and 6 gallon Isotherm hot water heater (110ac/heat exchanger) Heat exchanger was taken out and washed June 2019

Equipment: In Saloon: Port - L shaped dinette with fold down table to make double berth, lee cloth and 3 cabinet storage along the back, storage behind table when latched, and 3 storage spaces under the settee. Starboard- 3 cabinets, book shelf, 34 gallon aluminum diesel tank, single berth with lee cloth, and a wonderful Antarctic diesel heater.

Next to port comes the saltwater head with pressurized shower with shower sump. Head and head plumbing replaced in 2019, and a 15 gallon holding bladder with macerator. To starboard is the hanging locker which houses the Mermaid A/C - Reverse heat unit.

Under the V-berth is the Pur Watermaker that makes approximately 1.5gph and the 53 gallon aluminum water tank. V-Berth is lined with 6 cabinets, 3 drawers and has access to the anchor locker. V-berth has custom v-berth mattress that folds in the middle for under access.

Sails and Rigging: Full Battened Lee Main sail with lazy jacks Hardly ever used Trysail with separate track next to main sail track Inner forestay used for the storm jib (rarely used) and to become a cutter rig for more sail configuration. Harke

Calculations

Hull Speed
7.5 kn
Classic: 6.83 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

7.47 knots
Classic formula: 6.83 knots
Sail Area/Displacement
16.3
16-20: good performance

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.
16.29
<16: under powered
16-20: good performance
>20: high performance
Ballast/Displacement
45.6
>40: stiffer, more powerful

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

45.58
<40: less stiff, less powerful
>40: stiffer, more powerful
Displacement/Length
259.6
200-275: 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
259.57
<100: ultralight
100-200: light
200-300: moderate
300-400: heavy
>400: very heavy
Comfort Ratio
25.9
20-30: coastal cruiser

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
25.87
<20: lightweight racing boat
20-30: coastal cruiser
30-40: moderate bluewater cruising boat
40-50: heavy bluewater boat
>50: extremely heavy bluewater boat
Capsize Screening
1.9
<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
1.85
<2: better suited for ocean passages
>2: better suited for coastal cruising

Notes

These (CAL 2-34 CAL 34-III) later versions of the original CAL 34 share the same hull, but with a higher aspect rig.
CAL 34-III, specifically, was promoted as more of a blue water cruiser than previous versions. A bridgedeck was added, with companionway offset to starboard. Most of the changes to the interior were also consistent with the theme of an offshore cruiser with additional wood trim.
Among other changes:
Fuel and water tank capacity was further increased.
Heavier gauge standing rigging. Wheel steering is standard equipment.
