2009 Yellowfin 34

Step aboard and you’ll notice how much room there is to move—this 34 fishes more like a bigger battlewagon. The wide walkaround, tall gunwales and deep cockpit let you work a hot fish from bow to stern without tripping over gear. The second station turns long runs into a scouting mission, letting you read rips, color changes and bird life far ahead of the fleet. Yellowfin’s aggressive entry and big-shouldered bow soften up a tight afternoon chop, while that massive fuel tank makes honest canyon or island hops realistic, not a gamble. It’s the kind of hull that feels planted when you’re loaded with ice, crew, and a box full of meat on the way home.

In this region, conditions can swing from glassy mornings to stacked-up, confused seas by the ride home, and the Yellowfin 34 is built for exactly that. The sharp entry and substantial beam give you a confident ride when the wind comes on, and the cockpit layout is ideal for trolling temperature breaks, drifting wrecks, or live-baiting along structure. Long runs to offshore grounds are well within reach thanks to generous fuel capacity and efficient power. The open bow space and coffin box make it easy to carry extra gear, dive equipment, or overnight supplies, so you can adapt quickly to shifting weather, water temps, and bite reports.
