This 2002 Mainship Pilot 34 has been well maintained by her second owners and is an outstanding example of one of Mainship’s most sought-after Downeast-style cruisers. She is turn-key and ready for her next adventure, with numerous recent upgrades and no known electrical or mechanical issues. Has main salon and cockpit air conditioning. Powered by the dependable Yanmar 6LYA-STP 370 HP diesel with 1,740 original hours, she delivers reliable performance with a top speed of approximately 20 knots. Like many experienced cruisers, the current owners primarily operated her at an efficient 1,800–2,000 RPM, where she cruises comfortably at 8.5–9 knots while burning approximately 4.5 gallons per hour. This economical cruise speed allows for roughly 90-mile travel days, making her an excellent choice for the Intracoastal Waterway and extended coastal cruising like the Great Loop.
With her generous fuel capacity, owners typically planned on 40 gallons per day, providing an impressive 4–5 days between fuel stops—an excellent feature for long-distance cruising.

The Mainship Pilot 34 is well known for its comfortable accommodations, efficient single-diesel operation, and practical Downeast design. This vessel has successfully completed extended cruises, including multiple trips to the Florida Keys, demonstrating her capability as a dependable coastal cruiser.
