For Sale: PDQ 32/34, Shoal Survivor, For Sale

[thinwater]

A broad tramp makes for wonderful lounging. A high bridge deck means minimal pounding when beating into chop.

PDQ yachts are known for superior quality, durability, and sailing ability in heavy going. Quality resins, synthetic cores, vacuum-bagged construction, and strategic use of carbon fiber create a tough, lightweight boat that remains free from delamination and blistering. Systems have been well thought out and carefully installed, ensuring minimal maintenance. Unlike the "price point” the boats they often compete with, these were built with years of bulletproof, reliable service in mind; if quality is important to you, this PDQ will make you happy.



Ready for a tropical vacation (off Warrior's Rest, Chesapeake Bay)

Within the PDQ 32 family, this 1997 PDQ 32 stands out as perhaps the most thoughtfully tweaked, including important upgrades including:

• Extended transoms. This added two feet creates a swim and boarding platform, adding enjoyment for the kids and accessibility for mature sailors. It provides a center of activity for the kids by providing a handy parking zone for water toys. Older and disabled sailors will appreciate safe dinghy and kayak boarding. The additional length also reduces pitching and increases speed.
• Professionally installed air conditioning and heating. Cool surroundings make summer civilized, and heat extends spring and fall cruising, allowing enjoyment of the best sailing of the year.
• Extended and faired keels. Improved tacking and windward ability.
• Inside genoa sheeting tracks. Combined with the above improvements, this makes her the fastest PDQ 32.

Extended transoms make for safe boarding.
