Mainship 34 III

The Mainship 34 III is a refined and more stylish version of the original Mainship 34 Sedan. In the 34 III, the salon has been lengthened by some 9 inches to add interior space, and the extended hardtop of the original 34 Sedan was eliminated in favor of a more open cockpit. The same basic interior (updated from teak to light oak trimwork in 1985) was retained with a slightly larger galley and bigger salon windows. The cockpit of the 34 III is somewhat smaller the earlier Mainship 34, although the transom door and swim platform were made standard. Every Mainship 34 is powered with a single diesel engine (usually a 165-hp or 200-hp Perkins) capable of cruising at 7 knots at 2 gph or 13-14 knots at only 6-7 gph. The fuel efficiency of this coastal cruiser is truly impressive, and used Mainship 32 IIIs are always in demand. In all, over 900 Mainship 34s were built including the original Sedan and 334 II models, and these inexpensive boats remain a benchmark in owner popularity.
