Vancouver 34 Pilot for sale in Gosport United Kingdom

Boat Description

What a pretty coloured Vancouver 34 Pilot. She appears to be in good condition having been lovingly maintained and cared for by her current owner and I have been provided with so much info from the owner its great, read on below...

Built in 1995 by Northshore Yachts, she like all Vancouver Yachts, is a good passage making yacht for a short handed crew to sail in comfort and in safety. The Vancouver Pilot is an easy-to-manage cruiser with the advantage of a sunny saloon giving clear views of scenery and the ability to ‘sail from indoors’ in inclement weather.

In the ten years of our ownership we have sailed many miles in Angel, circumnavigating Britain and Ireland, including several summers cruising the Scottish Hebrides and Northern Isles. The previous owner sailed her to the Baltic and Norway. We have regularly maintained and constantly updated her, including:

• New engine
• Electronics
• Plumbing
• Canvas covers
• Upholstery
• New standing rigging (last winter)
• Weather deck (last winter)

It is with heavy heart that with our advancing age and ailments we have decided that our pretty yacht must now go to another caring owner.

As with all Vancouver yachts, she is a tough, long distance cruising yacht. Her pale blue GRP hull, Hull No. 85, has an encapsulated ballast long keel which is cut back at the forefoot but is swept aft to support the rudder and protect the propeller opening. She is 10.5m overall and beam is 3.2m. Her draught is a mere 1.5m. The bow has a nice entry, the sheer is pronounced and the counter stern is slim. With these lines, underwater configuration and approximately 8 tonnes cruising displacement she holds her course comfortably through a choppy sea.

The hull penetrations below the waterline are:

• ¾” toilet seawater inlet
• Two 1.5” toilet and holding tank outlets
• Depth/temperature instruments
• Speed log instruments
• Bow thruster tunnel
• Anodes
• Fridge heat exchanger

Anodes were replaced in 2024. Antifouling has been applied annually.
