The Graymarine in-line 6-cylinder engines were reportedly installed during the 1960s and are beautifully presentable. They are very clean and sound great as her owners have maintained them well. Some of the maintenance and upgrades that have been done over time include new exhaust manifolds and exhaust systems, water pumps, rebuilt carburetors, and new throttle cables.
She has a smooth operating hydraulic steering system and updated trim tabs onboard as well.
There are 4-8D batteries that are protected by a NewMar 1-2-70 battery Isolator that can be charged by both engine and shore power options. There is a Guest Charge Pro Series battery charger installed.
She also has a 1000 watt Heart Jazz 1000-12 inverter on board for power when away from the dock. The inverter is hard wired into numerous outlets throughout the yacht.

Richardson Boat Company of North Tonawanda, New York produced high-quality boats from 1909 to 1962. Richardson suspended recreational boat construction during WWII, becoming a major supplier of a wide variety of military vessels and expanding in the process. This boat was built not long after Richardson returned to production of recreational boats.
Hull construction is 1" x 4" planking. The bottom is marine plywood. Decking is 1" x 3" planking topped with painted canvas.
This beautiful Richardson enjoys several modern upgrades that increase her functionality and reliability without detracting from her classic appeal. These include custom Diamond Seaglaze windows with no leaks, new wiring, and non-skid deck paint. The exterior brightwork is very presentable -- recently done and well protected with canvas as well as a full rear inclosure for year round cruising.

This truly classic Richardson Deluxe Sedan Cruiser 34 signals her owner's pride-in-ownership. Her bright work is in well-kept condition, and she's very trim and orderly. She was last hauled out in October of 2020 and had the bottom paint and boot stripe done, and the hull primer paint was done at the same time. The hull was then prepped and painted with her final coats being laid in July of 2021. She sits in fresh water and the bottom paint is reportedly in great condition.
Her new owner can proudly take the helm without any need of correction for deficient care, and immediately begin enjoying the looks of admiration from other boaters that she draws with her lovely lines and supurb performance while underway.
While appearing totally classic and original she has enjoyed many practical upgrades that enhance her performance, reliability and ease of maintenance, as well as make her a very comfortable cruiser to take on extended trips and over nighters.
If you're drawn to classic vessels but aren't ready to fully restore one yourself, this Richardson is a gorgeous piece of yachting history ready to cruise at a amazing price.
