My question is should I be concerned that she has been just sitting for two years.
Some what. Normal problem is the fuel tank is full of algae. Assume it is and dump all the fuel and change all filters before going any place. It's the most common problem from being hauled out a long time. Look for fresh water system problems from not winterizing properly. In the north bay a boat for sale is always on the hard. The slips cost too much money. A 34 Hunter would be fine on the bay. Do get a good surveyor and go over it all to make sure things are what they are supposed to be. The price seems a bit low but there may need to be some work done too. At that price you should expect a few items.

If it generally looks fine to you and you don't see anything you feel bad about and the price is right everything else really is the survey. Be prepared to walk away.
