Description
Overview & History
"The Pacific Seacraft 34 could be considered the encore act to a very successful Pacific Seacraft Crealock 37. Back in 1980, when Pacific Seacraft had freshly acquired the molds of the Crealock 37 from Cruising Consultants and continued its steady production, the company approached designer Bill Crealock to work on a smaller sibling. This new design became known as the Pacific Seacraft 34 (“Voyagemaker”) and it was introduced in 1984. Incidentally, this was the start of a long and very successful association between Pacific Seacraft and Bill Crealock.
It’s not surprising then that the boats share similar graceful lines and appearance. As with the 37, the 34 is focused on safety and comfort. Overall a tough boat with a seakindly nature very well suited for blue-water passage making for couples." ~ Blue Water Boats
Construction
"The hull is very solid GRP with the outer layer being in vinylester resin to resist osmotic blistering. The deck is cored with end grain balsa. The hull/deck join is above deck. The ballast is lead and externally bolted on. The interior pan runs the full length of the boat. Overall the workmanship is of a very high standard." ~ Blue Water Boats
Boat Configuration
"The Pacific Seacraft 34 has relatively large overhanging bow, a handsome sheer line, which ends with a traditional canoe stern. Under the waterline is a relatively long cruising fin keel with a very handy draft of 4’11 in standard trim that will get you into places that other boats wont. The rudder is skeg-hung.
The rig is of cutter configuration, all control lines are feed back into the safety of the cockpit. The cockpit is small, which some would say is a traditional blue-water design feature to advert the risk of pooping (flooding from a following sea), hence don’t be surprised if it gets cramped quickly as the people count climbs.
Inside, there is 6’4″ of headroom, a comfortably sized galley, and an interior that is well laid out for liveaboard. There are berths for up to five, two in the V, two in the saloon settees, and a single seagoing quarter berth which doubles as a seat for the nav table." ~ Blue Water Boats
Accommodations
Entering the interior from the companionway down (4) steps you enter the Main Cabin with teak interior and a teak and holly sole. Directly to port is the wrap-around Galley that features, storage above and below work surfaces, a Dometic refrigeration system, Force 10 (3) burner stove with oven and broiler, stainless steel double basin sink with pressurized and manual pump taps, and an opening bronze port light with screen above stove.
On the starboard side opposite the companionway is the forward facing Navigation Station with a custom (2) shelf book case above the chart table. With teak furniture, storage above, in and below chart table, a suite of electronics, 12 volt and 110 volt electric panel with meters, reading light and an opening port light with screen above the station this area has everything you would need at a Navigation Station within arm’s reach.
Just aft of the Navigation Station is the Pilot Berth that extends aft under the starboard side of the cockpit. The head of the Pilot Berth doubles as the seating for the Navigation Station and can take advantage of the lighting and ventilation from the Navigation Station and has its own dedicated dome-light as well.
Moving forward past the Navigation Station and Galley, you enter the well thought out Salon. Taking advantage of a large overhead hatch and (4) opening port lights with screens, (2) to port and (2) to starboard, this area is well ventilated. The Salon also features teak handrails above the settees port and starboard, locker and shelf storage above the settee’s, bench style settee’s port and starboard, fans, reading lights and a large fixed dining table with drop leafs both port and starboard.
Continuing forward you enter the Forward Cabin with a V-berth forward and the head just aft and to the port side. With shelf storage, port and starboard, above the V-berth, locker and drawer storage below the berth and large hanging locker aft and to starboard of the bunk, there is plenty of space to stow your gear. (3) Opening port lights with screens and a large overhead hatch offer ample ventilation and the reading lights port and starboard offer additional light. The wet Head is fitted with a manual marine head, stainless steel sink, storage above and below counters, and pressurized and manual pump taps. For ventilation, the Head has an opening port light and the cowling and dorade-box on deck allow for good air movement.

Like most of us at East Coast Yacht Sales, Kristofer has a passion for sailing and the ocean. He spent time as a kid sailing dinghies and cruising the coast of Maine with his family. Kristofer was born in Norway, his father's home country, but moved to Maine at a young age, where his mother is from. Growing up in Brunswick Maine, he spent his summers working at various yacht clubs, boat yards and marinas and spent winters ski racing for Carrabassett Valley Academy.Â
After graduating from Colorado College in 2000, Kris went to work for Hinckley Yachts. Soon after, Kris restored a 1973 Pearson 36 and sailed down to the Caribbean where he lived aboard and worked in the marina and charter boat industry.
Upon returning to Maine, Kris earned an MBA degree and worked for Harbor Technologies, a startup company in the marine composites industry, while also teaching composite boat building courses at the Maine Advanced Technology Center. In 2012 he had the opportunity to buy Buck's Harbor Marine, a small marina and charter boat business in Brooksville, Maine, which he owned and operated for several years.
In 2021 Kris moved from Blue Hill to Yarmouth, along with his wife and their three children, to join the East Coast Yacht Sales team. He is enthusiastic about all kinds of boats and enjoys helping clients find their perfect boat.
