Summary
Marie Zee is an excellent example of a well maintained J/34c.
The J/34C offers great mid-range cruising, a shoal draft, and enough performance for racing or ticking off those extra cruising miles. Much of the J/34c’s design comes from the well known J/40. The large cockpit is excellent for entertaining and housing additional crew while still being laid out with short handed cruising in mind. The UFO (Underwater Flying Object) keel is part bulb and part wing in design, with more mass and strength than conventional fin or wing keels to minimize damage in groundings. It is shaped to prevent snaring pots or weeds, and provides exceptional upwind stability due to low center of gravity.
Cockpit layout follows the innovative J/40 program with a 40″ Edson destroyer wheel, 5″ binnacle compass and guard; mainsheet system with dual self-tailing winch controls and instrument pods for multi-function remotes within easy reach of the helmsman. The reasoning is simple. Most cruising is done by two people, and someone has to get some rest on the off watch.
Marie Zee is ready for your next cruising adventure!
