The wheel can override the side motion of the buckets if needed. The drawback is losing the versatility you have when operating the two buckets individually. In open water, we opened up the twin 350 hp Yanmar diesels. Once on plane, however, the 34 was as responsive as a dinghy. The WhisperJet 34 has a compact, yet practical layout beatifully executed by the craftsmen of Little Harbor Custom Yachts.
Lighting is cozy and warm throughout.
The Ray Hunt-designed hull with 17 degrees of deadrise provided a solid ride through the chop. We hit a maximum speed of 31 knots. Expect a cruising speed around 24 knots. Little Harbor constructs the hull with Corecell A550 on the bottom and Corecell A500 on the hull topsides, vacuum-bagging both areas to ensure a secure bond and reduce the risk of delamination. Knitted bidirectional E-glass with a Kevlar hybrid is used throughout the hull.
