Yachtcraft 34

Yachtcraft 34

Description

The Yachtcraft 34 is a classic fiberglass sailboat from the 1970s, often associated with Islander Yachts. It was originally marketed as the Islander 34 (around 1964) and is a modified version of the earlier Islander 32, with updates like a different rudder, coach roof, and added bowsprit. Yachtcraft boats (built by Wayfarer Yacht Corp. or similar) were sometimes sold or finished as kit boats, allowing owners to complete interiors and systems.
