1978 Crown 34.
These boats have a solid reputation in the Northwest. They were built in British Columbia and the majority of them are still in BC and the Seattle area. Check the owner’s web page at http://merricks.net/crown34/ for the history of the design, etc.

Excellent sailing on all points of sail.
Proven cruiser, easy to single or double hand, good liveaboard, very good headroom throughout and very spacious main cabin.
2007 Survey available.
The previous owner cruised this boat from Seattle to San Francisco, Hawaii, Marquesas, Tuamotus, Society Islands, back to Hawaii, Back to the Seattle area, and back to San Francisco.
I have just returned from cruising Mexico for the winter, down to Tehuantepec and back.
The boat is ready to go anywhere today.
