VANCOUVER 34  

This Vancouver 34 is a superb offshore cruiser and is exclusively for sale with DBY Boat Sales. A rare opportunity to secure this much sought after yacht with a proven hull design and excellent build quality, plus, sailed so easily short handed. Very much a modern classic and with her long keel and heavy displacement, she is a delight to sail. Australian registered ship a bonus and ready to go anywhere.

This Vancouver 34 Classic is in immaculate condition, very clean and tidy and is a fantastic boat for those who wish to sail that bit further in comfort and safety.
