Seller's Description

This 1982 Sweden Yachts 34 has quite a sailing history. Multiple trips across the Atlantic, and even a trip across the Pacific. The latest adventures began when the boat was purchased in 2017 In Corfu, Greece, and sailed to Las Palmas, Canary Islands to participate in the 2018 ARC (Atlantic Rally for Cruisers) from Las Palmas to Rodney Bay in St. Lucia (2700 NM).

After the 2018 ARC, the boat was sailed to Miami and then sold to some folks (2019) that moved it to the Dominican Republic due to Covid -19. The current owners purchased the boat in DR with the intent of sailing it back to Europe. However, the demands of life and time forced them to put her on the hard in Green Cove Springs, FL, and return to their home in Norway.

Anyone familiar with the safety demands of the ARC understands the requirements and rigorous safety standards a boat sailing the ARC must meet.

Sweden Yachts C34s were built at Stenungsund, Sweden. Since 1976, the Sweden Yachts yard has developed into a world-leading producer of well-sailing quality boats. This boat is one of the very last C-34 models built (hull no. 300). The hull is thick and solid. The boat is wide, and with its 6.25 ton weight, according to the seller, it sails safely and well in all conditions. Especially good and safe in bad weather.

Below, this Sweden Yachts C-34 has a roomy salon with a large C-shaped seating/dinette to port. To the starboard is a nav station with easy access to all electrical panels and controls.

Forward of the nav station is the galley with gimbaled stove/oven, sink, and refrigeration.

Forward of the salon, to port is a good size head with JABSCO head and a sink. To starboard from the head are two very spacious hanging and storage lockers, and forward of the head and lockers is a large V-berth.

Aft of the cabin ladder is a very large quarter berth to port and a very large storage locker to starboard.

Standing rigging includes a Selden mast and boom, 6 winches, a Furlex furling forestay, a spin pole, and 8 Easylock Maxi line clutches.

Sail inventory includes a newer North Sails main (2020), 155% gen, jib, 2 spinnakers. gennaker, and a storm tri-sail.

Navigational electronics include Raymarine autopilot and GPS/chartplotter (2019), AIS transmitter/receiver (2016), and an iCom CI-M423 VHF radio (2016).

This boat is loaded with equipment, parts, and tools too much to mention here.

Calculations

Hull Speed
7.8 kn
Classic: 7.18 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

7.8 knots
Classic formula: 7.18 knots
Sail Area/Displacement
?

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: under powered
16-20: good performance
>20: high performance
Ballast/Displacement
33.1
<40: less stiff, less 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

33.07
<40: less stiff, less powerful
>40: stiffer, more powerful
Displacement/Length
265.1
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
265.08
<100: ultralight
100-200: light
200-300: moderate
300-400: heavy
>400: very heavy
Comfort Ratio
27.7
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
27.7
<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
1.89
<2: better suited for ocean passages
>2: better suited for coastal cruising
