Looking for a Californian 34 in the PNW

[Mappy]

We are looking to buy an older*Californian 34 and would prefer normally aspirated engines. We found one that looks good in Ventura Ca but that is about $8000 worth of shipping away from Victoria BC. If anyone has one for sale in the PNW let me know.

Thanks

Roger, are you set on a Californian, or would a 34' CHB work for you? There's one for sale in the Brookings harbor; I believe it's an early 80s. *I spoke to the owner a couple months ago when he had it out for bottom paint, zincs and such. *Single 120 Lehman diesel (na) and lots of electronics and so forth.

If you're interested I can get more details when I'm at the marina tomorrow.


There's also a 34' Californian listed on Yacht World not too far from you.

Thanks Mike

At this point we are stuck on the Californian. I have looked at the one in Nanaimo, the boat is pretty good but the current owner has repaired a soft cabin top by bonding 3/4 plywood to the inside and putting in a*new headliner that is dropped*about 1.5 inches to refinish the ceiling. It looks ok inside but the repair method has made me nervous and the loss of headroom is unfortunate.

So still looking.........
