True North 34

Sailing Vessel (SV) Dove is a True North 34, cutter rigged, double-ender design, created by naval architect Stan Huntingford of West Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada. She has a long waterline, full keel, bowsprit and boomkin, transom hung rudder, and a slack-bilged underwater shape that classifies her as a true blue water, ocean cruising yacht. The True North 34 is of the same basic design as its predecessors the Trade Winds 34 and Noon Ocean 34 sailboats.
SV Dove was built in 1978 at Chungli Industrial Park, Taoyuan City, Taiwan by Master Carpenter/Builder Patrick C. M. Liu. Additional specifications can be located on SailboatData.com (pictured below).
