S&S 34 is a cruising and racing fibreglass monohull sailboat class. It was based on a design by Olin Stephens from Sparkman and Stephens after a commission from British yachtsman Michael Winfield. [2] The design features a skeg-hung rudder and a Bermuda rig with a large, overlapping headsail.
The yacht is traditionally lined and styled, but is built from solid glassfibre composite with a fin and skeg underwater profile. To achieve a good seakeeping ability for ocean cruising, the yacht is heavily constructed, and well ballasted. In addition, the yacht incorporates a strong skeg hung rudder. [1]

It displaces 18,000 lb (8,165 kg) and carries 7,091 lb (3,216 kg) of lead ballast. [1] [3] The boat has a draft of 6.50 ft (1.98 m) with the standard keel fitted. [1]
