The Islander 34 is a masthead sloop designed by McGlasson and Islander, built by Wayfarer Yacht Corp., Islander, and Tradewind Yachts from 1964 to the present. It measures 10.2 meters LOA with a 3.0-meter beam, a 1.4-meter draft, and displaces 4717 kg. The design likely evolved from the Islander 32, incorporating a different rudder profile influenced by the 1964 America's Cup defender *Constellation*, a modified coach roof, and an added bowsprit. It was also sold in kit form as the Yachtcraft 34. Aboard *Sailing Into the Mystic*, a 34-foot Islander sloop purchased for $5,000 required extensive restoration, including an Atomic 4 gasoline engine with a suspected blown head gasket and electrical system issues.2:33 The crew moved the boat to a private backyard for repairs, where they identified two mainsails and two jibs, three of which were in good condition.26:02 The same crew later decided against a multi-year refit of their Islander, opting instead to sell it and purchase an Irwin Yachts 43-CC MKIII for immediate cruising.9:33
