1978 Mainship 34 Trawler

This 1978 Mainship 34 is a fiberglass trawler powered by a single 160-horsepower Perkins diesel engine. The boat cruises at 7 knots and reaches 11 knots at full throttle, making it well-suited for Puget Sound and coastal exploration. With a beam of just under 12 feet, the 34-footer offers a practical balance of stability and maneuverability.

Below deck, two cabins and one head provide accommodation for cruising or liveaboard use. The layout is arranged for comfortable coastal voyaging without excessive complexity.

Significant mechanical work has been completed in recent years. The fuel injection system was rebuilt, the steering system replaced, and the electrical system upgraded with new batteries and an inverter. Aluminum fuel tanks were also installed. The boat's core systems reflect a methodical approach to maintaining long-term reliability and economy of operation.
