This is a really nice boat! If you are in the market looking for a 34 Mainship or any Downeast style boat, you can stop looking. This boat is ultra clean... interior, exterior, engine room.... this boat is super nice, especially for a 20 plus year old boat.
I took the boat out for a ride (video included in this ad) it ran wonderfully. turned right over from a cold start and zero smoke. The twin engines pick the boat up and put it nicely on plane in very little time, she turns and handles nicely. This should be the next twin engine 34 Mainship sold.
On top of that, the sellers (who have taken wonderful care of the boat) are genuine and easy to work with. If you can make a reasonable offer, I have no doubt we can get you in this boat quickly, and you can start enjoying it immediately.
Season is coming... time and tide wait for no one!

The Mainship 34 Pilot is an enlarged version of the super popular Mainship 30 Pilot, a versatile (and affordable) Down East cruiser introduced by Mainship in 1998.
Where the 30 Pilot is essentially a day boat, the larger interior of the 34 provides the volume required for extended cruising. The first 34 Pilots were express models; in 2001, the Sedan version with an extended hardtop offered owners the added security of a semi-enclosed pilothouse.
The well-appointed accommodations consist a roomy main salon with full-service galley and convertible dinette, enclosed head with shower, and a single stateroom forward with bi-fold privacy door. A TV on a swivel platform is mounted forward in the cabin.
In the cockpit, facing bench seats behind the helm and companion seats can double as extra berths. A centerline hatch in the cockpit sole provides access to the engine. Additional features include a tilt-away helm, transom door, and wide side decks. The 34 rides on a semi-displacement hull with moderate beam. A single 350hp Yanmar diesel will cruise at 14 knots (16–18 top). Twin 240hp Yanmar diesels cruise at 18 knots.
