Victoria Yachts 34

Description

Design and Pedigree


The Victoria 34 is a highly regarded cruising yacht, and this example is particularly special as the last one ever built. Designed by Chuck Paine, the Victoria 34 draws clear inspiration from the much-admired Bowman 40, sharing the same emphasis on balance, strength, and offshore capability. Because of this pedigree, she is equally at home on long-distance passages or relaxed coastal cruising.


Accommodation and Layout


She has the much sought after separate aft cabin for that much needed privacy. Recent upgrades have included: removal of the teak decking on the side decks, full copper coat application, new windlass, recent set of sails, upgraded chart plotter and wind instruments, new safety equipment and a replacement Yanmar engine with around 250 hours, she really is the complete, turnkey package.


Location


Currently ashore in Falmouth and available for viewing.
