Chinook 34
9 / 20 - score 49%
The Chinook 34 is a 34.0ft masthead sloop designed by Frederick Geiger and built in fiberglass by Cascade Yachts/Yacht Constructors, Inc. between 1956 and 1968.
70 units have been built.
The Chinook 34 is a very heavy sailboat which is a reasonably good performer. It is stable / stiff and has an excellent righting capability if capsized. It is best suited as a bluewater cruising boat.
Despite its low score, this boat is ranked in the top half. It might be a good tradeoff.
