Description
A well-built and comfortable cruiser, Island Time is ready for your next adventure. Island Time has classic down-east lines with fantastic 360 degree visibility to take in your surroundings from the helm station and deck lounge areas. Double wide helm and companion seats flank the roomy elevated cockpit. The side lounges can double as berths with the removable backrests. A tilt-up control console means easy access to electronics and wiring, and there is a built-in insulated cooler box as well as a walk-thru transom door.
Island Time’s wider beam provides a roomy air conditioned salon cabin area with classic teak and holly deck and nice wood trim throughout.
The recently serviced Cummins diesel provides reliable power, fast response, and a robust engine block designed for long life.

Mainship Pilot 34 Review
"Mainship is part of the Luhrs Marine Group. Henry Luhrs was a New York boat builder back in 1830. His grandson, also Henry Luhrs, carried on the tradition but transplanted it to the New Jersey coast. Nowadays, the Luhrs Marine Group includes Silverton, Luhrs and, since 1978, Mainship, their flagship trawlers.
The traditional design of the Pilot 34 is reminiscent of a displacement hull lobster boat but with flat sections aft and plenty of power. The keel helps the boat to track straight, even at lower speeds, and protects the prop and the hull.
The transom features a roomy mounted swim platform (not molded in) and features a very seaworthy transom door equipped with excellent hardware. Lots of room in the cockpit with a flat floor in non-skid fiberglass and good drainage, a huge engine hatch for easy access to the single diesel, and freshwater wash-downs.
Up two steps is the helm and companion area with double width forward facing bench seats with footrests on both sides. Inward-facing seats aft line both port and starboard sides and can be converted into single berths. Other excellent exterior features include sturdy side rails, wide side decks, bow pulpit and large locker for the anchor chain with an electric windlass.
Down three steps you’ll find an enclosed head to port, featuring deck hatch, porthole, small stainless sink in wood trimmed vanity, electric MSD and a handheld shower that you use with a curtain. The port side further forward features a very functional galley with attractive Corian counters, generous shelf space, three drawers, three lockers, a NovaKool fridge and freezer, two-burner electric cooktop and a GE microwave.
A spacious convertible dinette that seats four to six in comfort or sleeps two in near queen size comfort dominates the starboard side. It offers loads of storage under the seats too.
The whole cabin is dressed up with a teak and holly sole and the wood trim is cherry. Mainship takes great pains to stress that it is solid cherry. No veneer disguising particle board for this boat.
The forward vee is the master’s quarters. Here you can opt for single port and starboard berths or add a filler cushion to convert to a vee shaped double. This cabin includes hanging lockers port and starboard, deck hatch and side storage. The bow shape allows the berth to be placed low enough that you can sit comfortably.
The salty-looking Mainship 34, with its timeless styling is a boat guaranteed to take you to your favorite fishing grounds or picnic spot in style and seaworthiness. It is a boat that we’re convinced will stand the test of time."
