The Contest 34 is a 33.99ft masthead sloop designed by Dick Zaal and built in fiberglass by Contest Yachts - Conyplex between 1976 and 1980.

The Contest 34 is a heavy sailboat which is under powered. It is very stable / stiff and has an excellent righting capability if capsized. It is best suited as a bluewater cruising boat. The fuel capacity is originally small. There is a short water supply range.

This boat has a good score and ranks in the top quarter. It is an excellent choice.
