2013 Buddy Davis 34 Center Console

Step aboard and you’ll feel right away that this 34 isn’t just another center console. The Buddy Davis hull carries that sharp entry forward, softening the ride when it’s choppy, while the beam and weight give you a planted, confident feel at cruise. The helm layout lets you stand or sit comfortably with great sightlines, and there’s enough dash space to keep everything in view without feeling cluttered. Storage is generous and thoughtfully placed, from the in-deck compartments to the coffin-box style fish holds, so gear and provisions disappear neatly out of the way. The bow transitions easily from serious fishing to family sandbar duty, and the console interior offers enough headroom and finish to be truly usable, not just “extra space” on a spec sheet.

The 34 Buddy Davis shines in waters where you might run long distances to the grounds, then pivot to a casual cruise with family and friends. Its deep-V and weight distribution smooth out afternoon chop, while the efficient outboards make those stretches between inlet and offshore ledge feel shorter and more relaxed. For areas with shifting weather and mixed sea states, that hull form and high bow flare keep the ride dry when the breeze kicks up. At the same time, the open layout, generous seating, and smart use of shade make it just as comfortable for sandbar rafting, waterfront restaurants, and island-hopping days when the rods stay in the holders.
