About the Crealock 34 Pacific Seacraft

Pacific Seacraft's Crealock 34 represents a thoughtful approach to serious cruising sailboat design, embodying the builder's reputation for creating robust, seaworthy vessels. Designed by renowned naval architect W.I.B. Crealock, this 34-footer reflects his philosophy of traditional styling combined with modern construction techniques and materials. Built with offshore cruising in mind, the Crealock 34 features the heavy-displacement characteristics that made Pacific Seacraft boats highly regarded among long-distance sailors. The design emphasizes seaworthiness over speed, with a full keel configuration that provides excellent tracking and stability in challenging conditions. Her moderate beam and relatively high freeboard contribute to a dry, comfortable ride even in rough seas. The boat's construction quality follows Pacific Seacraft's exacting standards, utilizing hand-laid fiberglass with generous laminate schedules and careful attention to structural integrity. Interior accommodations prioritize functionality and comfort for extended cruising, with well-thought-out storage solutions and sturdy joinery work. While production numbers were relatively limited, the Crealock 34 earned respect within the cruising community for her solid build quality and capable offshore performance, making her a sought-after choice for sailors planning serious coastal and ocean passages.

Performance Ratios
SA/Displacement Sail Area to Displacement ratio measures how much sail power a boat has relative to its weight. Higher values mean more performance and speed.
Under 14 — Heavy cruiser, slow14–18 — Cruising sailboat18–22 — Cruiser/racerOver 22 — Performance racer
16.33
Comfort Ratio Ted Brewer's Comfort Ratio predicts how comfortable a boat will feel in offshore conditions. Higher values mean a steadier, more comfortable motion in a seaway.
Under 20 — Uncomfortably rough20–30 — Acceptable coastal30–40 — Good offshore comfortOver 40 — Very comfortable offshore
30.25
Capsize Screening Formula The USHS Capsize Screening Formula estimates offshore capsize risk. Lower is safer — values under 2.0 are considered acceptable for offshore sailing.
Under 2.0 — Safe for offshore2.0–2.2 — Borderline offshoreOver 2.2 — Coastal use recommended
1.75
Hull Speed Hull Speed is the theoretical maximum speed of a displacement hull, calculated from waterline length. Most cruising sailboats reach this speed in moderate conditions. 6.85
S# (Speed Number) The Speed Number (S#) is a quick performance index. Higher values indicate a faster, more powerful design relative to its size.
Under 3.0 — Slow cruiser3.0–5.0 — Average cruiser5.0–7.0 — Performance cruiserOver 7.0 — Racer
