After a life time of sailing boat...Hi from Europe! <br />After a life time of sailing boats, my wife and are in the final throws of purchasing a MT34DC! The decision was made because are current 31 foot sail boat is becoming increasingly difficult to truly enjoy with our 4 month old and 3 year old kids. We need more room and less lines under load waiting to take off busy little fingers!<br />The boat is in need of a lot of cosmetic work, but otherwise has no big issues. <br />Loving your site and actually read pretty much every post prior to making the decision to go ahead and by the boat. So thanks for all the good advice!<br />Keep up the great work.<br />Tony<br />Tonyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04678380378821380151noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5665070556831726952.post-18767870268807387842011-11-19T11:11:01.139-05:002011-11-19T11:11:01.139-05:00Rod and Cindy, Congratulations on your new boat. B...Rod and Cindy, Congratulations on your new boat. Based on our experience, you should be very happy with it. We feel for you on the projects but it is after all, a labor of love. Our project list is getting much shorter and we have some new ones in the completion stages to publish soon. We are very happy that the site has been helpful and maybe even an inspiration. Good luck and most of all,have fun.

Love your website and you...Hi from the cold north. Love your website and your boat. Just over a year ago we decided after 25 years of sailing to move to a trawler but didn't find the right one until last summer. I had looked at this site a few times after we looked at a nicely cared for 1980 Marine Trader 34 while we put in offers on two other boats. One offer was not accepted and the other boat didn't measure up during the survey. In the meantime the price of the MT 34 dropped significantly so we jumped. We got to move it from Toronto, across Lake Ontario, up the Trent Severn waterway, through Georgian Bay to our home on St. Joseph Island in the North Chanel. Just love the boat. At present it is hauled and I am in the process of finalizing our list of winter work. We are getting some major repairs and upgrades done by professionals and I am trying to decide what other projects to tackle next spring (boat is currently sitting 6 hours away). Obviously your project lists and comments on your boat are invaluable to us. We thank-you very much for the information you have so generously shared.
