I recently became the owner of a '92 C34. It was on the hard when I bought it and the yard it was in uses a Sea-Lift. I'm now faced with a haulout in a yard with a travel lift and I'm unsure of strap placement. I assume "as close to under the bulkheads as possible" is the right answer but... Any advice is welcome.
Thanks.
The C30 factory documents show lifting points, I believe (IIRC) it's on the cradle diagram. Doesn't the C34 owners manual show that info??
But the shorter answer is "Yes".
PDF's of the owners manuals for MK 1, 1.5, and 2 are in the Tech WIKI. Lift strap information is in Section/Chapter 5. MK 1 and 1.5 have same lift strap locations, but different dimensions from the lifeline stantion. I wasn't able to open the MK 2 PDF so don't know if it's the same as older boats.

Thanks for the head's up on the MK-II manual!! :thumb: :thumb:
Apparently, the idiot who posted the link to that particular manual was either inebriated or sleep deprived that day. I forgot that I had moved the PDF off a static C34 web page, over to the wiki repository. :shock: :shock:
I just repaired the link -- the wiki **should** take overnight to catch up.
The MK-II manual is here:

The lift points are on Page 61.
cheers

McS : Look in the MK I manual on page 5.2.
The lifting points are essentially in the middle of the aft fixed portlight and just forward of the bow Lewar opening port.

Thanks. Got it. Feel silly for not looking there in the first place.
Cheers,
