1978
Length
34 ft
Price
$39,950
This Californian has a beautiful, open layout with sliding doors to connect the interior and exterior spaces seamlessly. The galley is equipped with 3-Burner Kenyon Marine range, Nova Kool refrigerator/freezer, and plenty of counter space and storage to make life easier. Making your way forward, you'll find two staterooms and the head. The flybridge area is made much larger thanks to the hard top and the full enclosure makes operating from above possible in all seasons. This Trawler is ready to go!
Full walk around decks and a well lit main salon lets you truly enjoy the great outdoors with uninterrupted views. Fully enclosed flybridge allows you to have a commanding view while staying dry in the shoulder seasons. Traditionally styled and showing a distinct Trawler profile, the Californian 34 is a popular family cruiser with exceptional low-speed economy and true planing-speed performance. Her solid fiberglass modified V hull has a fine entry forward which gradually levels out into nearly flat aftersections for stability and greater speed. While most trawler-style boats have been imported from Asia, the Californians were among the few to have been built in the U.S. The salon is well suited for hosting with plenty of seating. The Galley has been updated with a new stove top and oven, new refrigerator and microwave. Two staterooms below with spacious accommodations. Light Maple woodwork is applied throughout the interior. Outside, the aft deck area is large enough for a few chairs and would be easy to set up to fish.
This is a fantastic boat that has been well taken care of and ready to cruise. Check the additional description for more details.

The Californian Brand
About the Californian Brand. Way back in the 1970s trawler yachts were known for several things: they were roomy and comfortable, decidedly seakindly, and fuel efficient. Trawlers were also seen as maddeningly slow when compared to sport fishers and other powerboats, they were expensive, and they were all built overseas. However, these views were magnificently shattered by Jule Marshall and Myrna Elliott, partners who founded the highly regarded sailboat manufacturer Ericson Yachts and who went on to create Californian Yachts in 1977.
Californian 34 diesel cruisers filled a niche previously unoccupied. With 238 produced between 1977 and 1984, Californian 34s were faster and cheaper than their Asian counterparts and they were built tough in the good old USA. Jule designed the hulls and superstructures while Myrna designed the interiors. The results were impressive. With more horsepower and a semi-displacement hull, Californian 34s have less roll, more lift, and higher speeds than their competitors. Topside, Myrna reworked the interior design of the Grand Banks 32 to provide for an extra stateroom, a roomy head, a fully equipped galley, and large windows to provide a light and airy ambiance. Above all, the Californian 34 is one of the most versatile boats on the water. Cruising at low speeds the efficient diesels provide the leisurely ride of a typical trawler yacht. Throw open the throttles and you can get where you’re going in hurry. Add a fighting chair or two and you’ve got a sportfisher, with the hardy top awning, you’ve got a party boat for friends and family.
