Bermuda 34

I had the morning at Wayford bridge marina Surveying this Bermuda 34 broads cruiser.
 

Such was the success of the Caribbean that after three years service a much needed smaller sister mould was launched for the 1969 season. With one less bedroom the 34ft Bermuda class was otherwise very similar to her big sister, in both appearance and layout, with all the popular features including: Aft mounted engine for quiet cruising. Spacious saloon with double bed that could remain made up and simply folded upwards out of the way during the daytime.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Surveyors comments: These boats were built with a double gelcoat which is great news when it comes to the dreaded osmosis. Underneath the bottom of any blister will show a smooth, glossy appearance with no evidence of a glass fibre or fibre pattern showing. Basically the outer gelcoat acts as a barrier layer, this absorbs the water pressure leaving the second layer usually pristine and like new. it’s a shame not more builders followed this procedure….
