Seller's Description

If you’re searching for a sailboat that combines classic beauty with unmatched performance, look no further than this 1987 Pacific Seacraft 34. Designed by William Crealock, this vessel is renowned for its strength, durability, and ability to tackle rough offshore conditions easily. Whether you’re planning coastal cruising or serious bluewater passages, this boat is designed to provide safe, comfortable, and enjoyable sailing experiences.

The hull is hand-laid, solid fiberglass, providing unmatched strength and durability. The full keel ensures a smooth, stable ride in heavy seas, making her an ideal offshore cruiser. The canoe stern enhances seaworthiness, handling following seas with ease.

This Pacific Seacraft is Cutter rigged with a versatile sail plan that includes a furling headsail (110 Genoa), cutter sail, a mainsail (new in 2023), and 3 storm sails all in excellent condition. This boat is easy to sail shorthanded or with a small crew and the boat balances beautifully under sail, whether you’re beating upwind or cruising downwind.

The boat is equipped with a Lofran Tigress windlass (2018), 150 ft of 5/16 anchor chain (2023), and a CQR 35# plow anchor forward. There is also a Danforth anchor haninging on the stern rail with 40’ of chain and 100’ of rode leading through a hawes pipe to a dedicated chain locker in the stern lazerette. This ground tackle set-up will ensure secure anchoring even in challenging conditions.

This Pacific Seacraft boasts a comfortable, thoughtfully designed interior. There is a spacious V-berth with ample storage underneath and its large enough for two adults to sleep comfortably.

The head is fully enclosed, with a marine toilet and sink. The head compartment is well-ventilated and has plenty of storage for toiletries and towels.

The saloon has beautiful teak cabinetry throughout with plush cushions and a U-shaped settee that converts to an additional berth. The beautiful chrome bronze portlights offer excellent natural light and ventilation, making it a cozy space to relax after a day of sailing. There is a Sony stereo radio, and, for cooler nights, there is a Force 10 wall heater.

The galley is well-equipped with a three-burner propane stove and oven, a deep stainless steel sink, ample counter space, and a large icebox with a Seafrost cold plate (2018). Everything you need to prepare meals at sea or at anchor.

The Nav station includes a dedicated chart table with ample space for charts, instruments, and navigation tools. Navigation electronics include 2 VHF radios (1 at Nav, 1 in cockpit), an iCom 802 single sideband radio, Garmin radar, and 2 NEMA 2000 linked GPS plotters( Garmin2010/Garmin2006). The boat is also equipped with a Monitor windvane and a Raymarine-Evolution EV-100 tiller sail drive unit and a Raymarine 2000 control head.

The cockpit is deep, safe, and secure, with high coamings to keep you dry. Tiller steering means there is lots of space, comfortable seating for crew, and a large cockpit locker for storage. The well-protected cockpit makes her an ideal boat for both heavy weather sailing and relaxing at anchor.

The cockpit is well-protected with a sturdy dodger, providing shade and shelter from the elements, and while at anchor, there is a custom cockpit sun cover.

The fold-down swim ladder makes it easy to get in and out of the water during those perfect days at anchor.

The reliable Yanmar 3YM30 27HP engine has been regularly serviced and runs smoothly, providing plenty of power for motoring in and out of the harbor or when wind conditions aren’t favorable. Note that the hour meter shows 394.7 hours, however, the boat’s maintenance log shows that the hour meter was changed out with 2100 hours on the engine. Thus, the 2494 hour count.

There are 3 group 27 house batteries - 90 amp hrs each - that were new in 2023. There is also 1 group 27 starting battery that was new in 2020. The boat also features 2 100-watt solar panels and a Rich Solar charge controller ensuring your batteries stay charged even during extended time off-grid.

This Pacific Seacraft also comes with a 9 ft West Marine RIB dinghy and a 3.5 HP Tohatsu OB motor that was new in 2023.

The Pacific Seacraft 34 is known for her smooth, easy motion at sea, even in rough conditions. She tracks well and has a forgiving helm, making her easy to sail for sailors of all experience levels. Her deep cockpit and high-quality build provide security and confidence offshore, while her moderate size and well-balanced design allow for nimble maneuvering in coastal and harbor settings.

Few boats have the reputation of the Pacific Seacraft line, and the 34-footer is often considered the ideal balance of size, comfort, and performance. If you’re looking for a boat that’s ready to sail now, fully equipped, and ready for extended cruising, this is the boat for you.

Whether you’re dreaming of weekend getaways or planning a full circumnavigation, this 1987 Pacific Seacraft 34 will be your trusted partner on the water. She is ready to take you wherever your hopes and dreams desire.

Calculations

Hull Speed
7.2 kn
Classic: 6.86 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

7.18 knots
Classic formula: 6.86 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.
16.27
<16: under powered
16-20: good performance
>20: high performance
Ballast/Displacement
40.0
>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

40.0
<40: less stiff, less powerful
>40: stiffer, more powerful
Displacement/Length
298.5
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
298.51
<100: ultralight
100-200: light
200-300: moderate
300-400: heavy
>400: very heavy
Comfort Ratio
30.0
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
30.01
<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
1.8
<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
1.75
<2: better suited for ocean passages
>2: better suited for coastal cruising
