Boat in Novato, CA 94949 US
Double Cabin Trawler
1 Engine (Ford Lehman)
34 feet
Diesel
Fiberglass/Reinforced
With a seakindly hull designed by noted marine architect Ed Monk Jr. and built with a rugged solid fiberglass layup, the CHB 34 trawlers were THE long distance cruisers back in the day, and, a Pacific Northwest veteran herself, Delphine is a fine example of the type. She's been well taken care of over the years and shows very nicely today, and she's the upgraded version with deck access from the aft cabin.
Note all the exterior brightwork was wooded and renewed over the summer of 2024 (this is a MAJOR job and it looks fantastic!), the bridgedeck teak was removed then the deck glassed and repainted, exterior canvas was redone, new batteries late 2025, the single Ford Lehman 120 diesel runs very well and both the hydraulic steering pumps were recently replaced (2024).
All in all, the boat shows as nice as any CHB we've ever seen; she's lying Bel Marin Keys and shown by appointment, please.
New listing, more pictures up shortly.
Forward stateroom has V berth with insert, opening hatch above and ensuite head with pull-out sink, then up to salon with lower steering station and galley up opposite dinette/entertainment aft.

Note vessel light and airy, six-foot-plus headroom, interior immaculate with custom leather helm seat, dark blue cushions and white curtains, no signs of water leakage. Also note Espar diesel fired forced air heating system.

Bow rail consisting of stainless steel pulpit with teak hand rails side and stern on 1" stainless stanchions. All exterior wood (hand and toe rails, window trim, doors, steps, etc.)in very nice shape; this is an important consideration on boats of this vintage as there's a good bit of exterior wood and it's quite expensive and/or time-consuming to refinish.

Wagner hydraulic steering with both pumps replaced, Morse throttle and shift cables. Four bladed bronze prop, full keel with skeg hung rudder.
