2003 Mainship Pilot Express

The Mainship Pilot 34 has the seakeeping abilities of the lobster boats it has descended from. It has a steep plumb

bow and a gentle rise of the sheer; both of these qualities give the Pilot 34 the ability to cut through head seas, while

the rounded forward hull sections provide a soft entry. Flatter sections aft increase lift for speed and economy, and the

deep full keel with a complete sand shoe gives stability and protection from grounding.

In the cockpit, the Pilot 34 has double-wide helm and companion seats flanking the large hydraulically-assisted

engine access hatch. The side lounges can double as berths with the removable backrests. A tilt-up console means

easy access to electronics and wiring, and there is a built-in insulated cooler box as well as a standard transom door.

Below, the cabin has a large head complete with Corian covered vanity, lots of storage, a shower, and even a VacuFlush head. The teak-trimmed galley offers plenty of storage, ample Corian counter space, a microwave, a 3-burner propane cooktop and oven, and an AC/DC refrigerator with a small freezer. The large dinette easily converts to a double berth and includes plenty of storage. A color TV - VCR is standard and is easily viewed from the private forward stateroom, galley or dinette on its swivel system. Forward in the stateroom, cedar-lined hanging lockers and drawers will swallow gear for the weekend or a month. Extra-long vee berths guarantee a great night's sleep.

Two cushioned bench seats, port and starboard, provide seating for four. In the aft pilothouse are two cushioned bench seats that convert to full-length berths with storage below. Under the port bench is a built-in insulated icebox that drains overboard. The large engine hatch lifts with a hydraulic arm to provide access to the engine room and generator.
