Broker's Comments

Presenting a highly specified and well-maintained Birchwood TS340 from 1994, offering a compelling blend of comfortable accommodation and serious cruising capability.

Lying on Scotland's spectacular West Coast, this vessel is an ideal platform for exploring these famous waters, boasting a comprehensive inventory of modern navigation and domestic systems that far exceeds expectations for a boat of this era.

The twin 270hp Mercruiser diesel engines, with a balanced 823 hours each and freshly serviced in March 2025, provide dependable power for a comfortable cruising speed of 16 knots.

Manoeuvrability is greatly enhanced by a powerful Vetus bow thruster, making docking and close-quarters handling a confident affair.

The practical semi-displacement GRP hull offers a stable and sea-kindly ride, with Bennett trim tabs and an auto-tab control system fine-tuning performance and efficiency.

A true standout feature is the extensive and high-quality suite of Raymarine electronics, including a C120 Chart Plotter with radar overlay, a digital radome, and an Autohelm autopilot system. This is complemented by a Garmin GPS and a Furuno sounder, providing exceptional navigational redundancy and clarity - a major asset for coastal cruising.

Below decks, the accommodation is both practical and comfortable for extended stays, offering six berths across two cabins. The galley is well-appointed with a four-burner stove, and comfort is assured year-round thanks to a dedicated Eberspacher cabin heater and a calorifier providing plentiful hot water.

This Birchwood TS340 is a notably well-equipped and thoughtfully upgraded vessel. From its 3kW inverter and Shurflo water pressure system to its inflatable dinghy and recent engine service, it presents as a genuine "go-anywhere" motor cruiser that is ready for its next adventures. A viewing is highly recommended to fully appreciate the scale of its specification and its overall condition.
