Time2Go | 2011 Bruce Roberts 34

Port Elgin, ON, CA

About

The Bruce Roberts 34 design has been sailed across oceans and around the world. It's a true bluewater design - strongly built, heavy and sea-kindly. This is your opportunity to acquire a well equipped boat that has already been to Florida and the Bahamas, at a very attractive price. It is Time 2 Go !

This custom built Bruce Roberts 34 was professionally welded and then outfitted to a higher quality of finish than is usual in Bruce Roberts builds. Interior headroom was increased, and she was fitted with a taller mast with in-mast furling, solar panels, a hard bimini top and plenty of good quality equipment.

Some modest updates are required, but this boat represents an excellent value proposition for a couple or solo sailor looking to escape to Florida and the Bahamas.

*** Winter Storage included through to Spring 2025 ***

Design and Construction

Built to plans purchased from Bruce Roberts, this vessel will easily and comfortably handle rough weather with a sea-kindly motion.

Hull was professionally welded, then the decks, interior and all equipment were fitted by the seller.

Hull was originally sandblasted, coated with Strontium Chromate, then multiple layers of primer and paint applied. Foam insulation was applied to the interior of the the hull.

Lead ballast was installed into the keel space.

The rudder is mounted on a full-height skeg for full protection, and is driven by a rack-and-pinion drive from the Lewmar pedestal.

The cabin top and deck are comprised of steel ribs, 2×2 ash framing, marine plywood, fiberglass and epoxy, then marine paint applied.

The topsides are painted with Awlgrip, freshly updated, and capped with a handsome and sturdy ash toe rail.

The bottom has fresh Micron CSC anti-fouling paint, and is in good condition with no signs of exterior rust. Fresh zincs have been installed on the hull, shaft and rudder.

Rig and Sails

The spar is an aluminum, single-spreader rig supported with dual lower shrouds, cap shrouds, forestay and single back stay.

The mast is deck stepped to a height of 40′ above deck and supports some additional sail area beyond the standard 37′ mast.

The headsail is a 2011 Lee Sails 130% overlapping cruising genoa with UV protective strip, mounted on a Harken furler.

The mainsail is a 2011 Lee Sails cruising mainsail, mounted on in-mast furler.

Both sails appear to be in very good condition, showing signs of little usage.

All control lines are led aft to the cockpit, where there is a pair of Lewmar #43 2-speed self-tailing primary winches.

Plenty of good Garhauer equipment

  • Traveler on coach roof
  • 4x rope clutches
  • Turning blocks, organizers, etc.

Lewmar track and cars for jib sheets

Accommodations

Entering the cabin from the companionway, we have the galley on port, complete with nicely built cabinetry, tiled countertop, Force 10 stove / Oven, microwave oven and sink. There is plenty of stowage space, including for dishware and glassware.

Aft of the galley we have an unfinished quarterberth, useful stowage of all that equipment we need when cruising.

Opposite the galley on starboard we have a massive refrigerator with exceptionally thick insulation which goes a long way to reducing energy demands from the 12 Volt refrigeration compressor. The top of the fridge doubles as a chart table or other work surface.

The main electrical panel, with VHF radio and stereo, is mounted above the fridge.

The starboard quarterberth provides accommodation for a single guest. Additional guest or sea berths can be made of the settees on port and starboard. Between the settees we have the main table, with drop leaves on either side and stowage in the central portion of the table. Stowage compartments abound.

Moving forward we have the head compartment, which can be closed off from the main salon and the vee berth. The marine toilet is on port, with a washbasin and stowage on starboard. The sink faucet pulls out for showering, and a separate pump discharges the water from the floor pan overboard.

Finally, we have the vee berth forward.

A main hatch above the vee berth, another above the head and eight opening portlights with rain protectors provide lots of light and ventilation, with insect screens. Additional ventilation is provided by two dorade cowl vents and a solar vent on the coach roof

Headroom is 6′ 4″ in the standing portion of the cabin.

Testimonials

George Ayers was terrific to work with over the past few months as I evaluated, negotiated and purchased a CS 30 that Harris & Ellis Yachts had listed in Sarnia. He was patient, thorough and totally professional. I have owned nine sailboats in my 50+ years as a sailor. My experience with George and Harris & Ellis Yachts has been my best boat buying experience to date.

George did an amazing job of selling our CS 30 sailboat. A caring and compassionate person, he went above and beyond our expectations and never stopped working on our behalf to get the job done. We are forever grateful for his dedication to his work. Please let him know how much we think of him!

I am writing to express my deepest gratitude for the outstanding service provided by Greg. Last October, my husband suddenly passed away due to a heart attack, leaving behind two boats. Greg was instrumental in helping me sell the first boat quickly and at a very good price. As for the second boat, due to my husband's declining health in his final year, the boat had been sitting idle at the dock near our home for over a year. Greg demonstrated the utmost professionalism in cleaning, maintaining, and preparing the boat for sale. He put in a tremendous amount of work, understanding the niche market for this boat, and always kept me informed of his progress without burdening me with the stress of the process. Last week, Greg successfully sold the second boat, and I am very satisfied with the price achieved. His professionalism and confidence in his work gave me a much-needed sense of security during such a difficult time.    

Thank you for all your work in facilitating the sale of our dad's boat. Jake and I really appreciate all the hard work you put into it with the many visits, paperwork, etc. A special mention has to go out to Grant for teaching me how to fold the sails!

As first-time boat buyers and as foreigners wanting to buy a cruising catamaran in the US, we knew we needed a reliable broker that had our best interests in mind. John Heintzman was just that, and more! He was extremely committed to understanding what we were looking for, gave great advice, and guided us through the purchase process with great patience and knowledge. All in all, we felt very well taken care of.

I feel compelled to reach out about the absolutely wonderful experience that I have had with Grant and Patricia Bowlby. I completed the purchase of a boat yesterday and I couldn’t be happier. They were so helpful, kind, and patient. This was my first experience with a broker, and I think I’ve found the best.

I can’t thank Ewan Campbell enough for the super job he did in selling G, making up for my lack of experience in this realm and patiently searching for just the right buyer and a win-win for seller and buyer alike.

It was a wonderful experience selling A with Jeff Cole’s expert assistance. Thank you for simplifying a complicated process. Your patience and kindness are especially appreciated.

I just wanted to thank Jeff Cole for all his hard work. He was very professional and effective.

This Regal 3350 Sport Cruiser is absolutely loaded with heat and air, genset, windlass, cockpit grill and large engines. If you compare with other pre-owned 3350's on the market, there is a big difference in the details with this one - starting with the available power. The base power was the 260 hp 5.7Ls with single prop drives, up to the largest package, the 375 Hp 8.1L's with Duo Prop drives- a $12K upgrade. With the twin 8.1Ls the 3350 is fast, nimble and a blast to drive.

Designed by Robert Perry, the Saga 35 is a serious long-range, blue water cruiser for the discerning sailor. Offering a muscular sail plan with a performance hull and appendage package, she is nonetheless robustly built with numerous thoughtful features, quality equipment, spacious living and gracious style. She is a highly desirable liveaboard vessel which is meant to go places and get there quickly, comfortably and safely. The current owner has updated her wisely - new epoxy bottom, new main and jib sails, new solar panels and more. She is clean, tidy and will be sure to impress.

Whisper II is a first generation C&C MkI. Built between 1974-1977, the 33 MkI became a popular choice for those looking for a cruiser for a small family, and could still perform in racing. Whisper II has seen many upgrades over the past few years. She is well equipped for those looking to cruise and spend time on the hook, and with her arsenal of sails can still be competitive as a club racer.
