1978 CHB Trawler
Specifications
Description
Much new has been done to this boat and shows in excellent, cosmetic condition! New inside and outside paint, new cushions, new canvas, new electronics just to name some of the recent upgrades done to this vessel.
The venerable 34 CHB is unquestionably, the most popular small trawler ever produced. Their popularity is due to the huge interior volume offered by a 34 foot boat. They are sought after to this day as live boards or weekend condos on-the-water. They are very economical to operate if traveling is your choice. This vessel is powered by a legendary Lehman 120 HP diesel engine that only consumes about 2.2 gallons per hour while cruising at about 7 knots.
This vessel was built by Chien Hwa Boat Mfg. which today is the same yard that builds the highly respected Kady Krogen line of yachts.
