1972 Islander 34ft Sailboat cruiser

This 1972 Islander 34-foot cruising sailboat is built on a fiberglass hull and equipped for extended voyaging. The boat carries an inboard three-cylinder Universal diesel engine with a 30-gallon fuel tank, supported by both 12-volt DC and 120-volt AC shoreline electrical systems. The rig features a Dacron batten mainsail and roller-furling jib for flexible sail handling.

The onboard systems reflect a focus on self-sufficiency and safety. Power generation comes from a solar electricity system, while a fresh water maker provides independent water supply. The galley includes an electric stove and refrigerator. Navigation equipment comprises a Garmin 740s GPS chartplotter, Garmin radar, and a 406 SARSAT EPIRB for emergency communication. An electric anchor windlass and Monitor windvane autopilot handle deck operations. A four-person canister life raft meets safety requirements.

Accommodations support cruising comfort with sleeping berths and a head. The boat also carries a two-person inflatable dinghy with motor for tender duties and a BBQ for deck entertaining. This setup supports the independent cruising this boat is designed to undertake.
