Manufacturer Provided Description
One of the most famous and successful boats in Silverton history has been the 34 Convertible. Over the years, more than 1,200 of these boats in various renditions have made family cruising and fishing fun and affordable. Modern lines and a proven hull grace this comfortable interior. The salon offers a convertible sofa and plenty of room to entertain. The oversize flybridge with pilot, companion and guest seating rounds out this value-packed model. Silverton engineers have created an easily driven hull that performs well with smaller displacement engines providing better economy and increased range. Shallow propeller tunnels have lowered the drive angle to increase efficiency and reduce the draft as well.
Vessel Walk Through
Entering from the cockpit you'll find an inviting patio loveseat to the stern that sits above the engine hatches housing the twin Crusader 350 inboard engines with warner velvet drive transmissions, an onboard battery charger, electric water heater, the fresh water and waste holding tanks, and more. At the transom you'll also find a rod-holder mounted Magma gas grill that's occupying one of two integrated rod holders and the integrated swim platform just beyond it with a 2-step swim boarding ladder.
Looking towards the bow from the cockpit you've got a removable ladder for accessing the flybridge that's equipped with a bimini top, sitting and cupholders for 6, a hailer with an intercom to the cabin below, and more. You've got handrails integrated into the exterior sides of the flybridge for accessing the bow area where you'll find a lewmar windlass anchor, an integrated washdown in the anchor locker, and 4 fender holders with fenders.
Returning to the cockpit you can enter the cabin easily through the sliding door where you'll find a convertible sofa to the port and a pair of wicker deck chairs to starboard and the lower helm just forward on the starboard side. The stereo is mounted at the lower helm along with controls for the 16K BTU marine air conditioning unit with reverse cycle heat.
Just forward of the lower helm and to port 2 steps will take you down to the galley that's equipped with an AC/DC refrigerator, microwave, coffee maker, princess electric 2-burner range top, double stainless sink, and integrated cabinets with a perko floor.
Forward and to starboard from the galley, perhaps behind a privacy curtain if your crew is napping, you'll find a large settee that converts to a bunk bed with a port window at the top bunk and 12volt reading lights at each bunk.
Directly to port is the wet head equipped with a raritan macerator head, a vanity sink/shower, vanity storage, two mirrors, a 12 volt light overhead and a port window.
Moving farther to the bow you'll find a hanging locker to port just before entering the wide v-berth with integrated storage above and below the v-berth. This area measures approx 7' wide at the entrance and just over 6' deep towards the V of the bow. AC and DC lighting is available in the V-berth with a large port window overhead and a divider at the entrance when privacy is desired.
