1983 Zuanelli 34 | Classic Italian Cruiser with Extensive Recent Upgrades
This 1983 Zuanelli 34 combines classic Italian styling with a comprehensive programme of recent upgrades, creating a capable cruising yacht ready to enjoy. Carefully maintained and thoughtfully improved, she offers straightforward handling, comfortable accommodation and an impressive specification for coastal cruising or longer passages.
Recent investment includes new Dacron mainsail and roller-furling genoa in 2025, backed by a spinnaker, storm jib and standing rigging replaced within the last five years. Cockpit-led control lines, self-tailing winches and a feathering propeller make short-handed sailing simple and rewarding.
A regularly serviced Farymann R30 diesel engine provides dependable performance, while four solar panels, a 440Ah AGM domestic battery bank, Victron charger, inverter and shore power deliver excellent onboard independence for extended cruising.
Below deck, the warm teak interior offers accommodation for up to six, including a forward owner’s cabin, practical navigation station, well-equipped galley and comfortable saloon. Blue upholstery and excellent headlining create a welcoming atmosphere throughout.
Supplied with a Gibsy tender, brand-new Honda 2.3hp outboard, serviced liferaft and a comprehensive cruising inventory, this Zuanelli 34 presents an excellent opportunity to acquire a distinctive cruising yacht that is ready for her next adventure.
