The Crown 34 is a Canadian sailboat, that was designed by Hein Driehuyzen and first built in 1975.[1] [2] [3]
The Crown 34 design was later developed into the San Juan 34 in 1980.[1] [3] [4]
The boat was built by Calgan Marine in North Vancouver, BC, Canada, with 30 examples completed between 1975 and 1979.[1] [3] [5]
After production of the Crown 34 ended in 1979, the molds were sold to GlassFab of Monroe, Washington, United States. That company only built five examples, under the name Sun 1020. The molds were then repossessed by Calgan and later sold again, this time to the Clark Boat Company in Kent, Washington. After some modifications, the design became the San Juan 34, which was introduced in 1980.[1] [3] [4] [6]
