As you enter the salon you will find a large salon with excellent ventilation and visibility, dinner seating for six and entertainment seating for 10. The PDQ 34 boasts a lower and upper helm, twin queen berths (down two steps) and a very functional head. The flybridge is large with excellent visibility. The decks are wide and easy to navigate when moving around the boat.

The performance and economy of the boat has yet to be matched by any other boat on the market. With the twin 75 hp diesels she consumes less than 1.5 gph at 7 knots and has a top speed of about 17 knots.  The propellers are so far apart that handling for docking is in increments of inches not feet, even in the windiest of weather.

EASY RIDERS has been cruised in Florida and the Bahamas for the last seven years. The owners have found her to be ideally suited for this type of cruising. Her speed, low fuel consumption, ease of handling, and shallow draft all make for an enjoyable cruising experience.

Entering down through the glass sliding door aft, you step down into the spacious elevated Bridge station and Salon including the Lower Helm Station with seat and complete set of electronics. Moving forward, the Salon is centerline with a large square-shaped lounge and table with folding leaves that converts into a King Size berth.The 28" TV is readily viewed from several comfortable seats. The Galley is down and forward in the port side hull along with one Stateroom aft. The Head & Shower are down and forward in the starboard side along with another Stateroom aft. The Topside includes an enormous Bridge area with Upper Helm Station and Electronics, lots of seating area, numerous storage lockers, wide walk-arounds and Transom Stairs on each hull for easy boarding to floating docks or dinghy.  There are also two deck height boarding gates on both sides of the boat for elevated landings like fixed piers.  There are two very large storage lockers accessible by lift-up hatches in the two forward hulls.  The portside hull houses the genset.  There are also two smaller hatches revealing two more storage compartments on the forward deck.

The Salon area of the MV/34 is one of her most appreciated features. With lots of large windows, excellent ventilation and comfortable seating, she is hard to beat. In this model year the salon features a rectangular seating area that makes into a king size berth. This squared-off seating allows great seating or lounging for the cruising couple to just sit back and read a book using their own reading light or watch TV with their back to the seatback and their legs up on the seat facing the aft of the boat.  Very comfortable!  The elevated lower helm seat for two is also convenient for entertaining large groups with all the social gatherings forward of the Captain, not with his back to the crowd.  And the elevated L-shaped seating to portside allows Crew to have the same outward, forward view as the Captain.  Very smart design!
