About
Tranquility Base is a great example of a well-cared-for 2003 PDQ 34 that’s truly been enjoyed the way these boats were meant to be.
Her owners have cruised extensively—up and down the East Coast and over to the Bahamas—and most recently brought her north to Massachusetts before an enjoyable return to Florida. The result? A boat that’s been used, loved, and thoughtfully maintained.
Inside, she’s in excellent condition. Outside, she’s been compounded and waxed, and she’s loaded with practical cruising gear, galley items, and a solid inventory of spares—making her an easy boat to step aboard and go.
Recent upgrades include:
• New aft A/C unit
• New full and flybridge accent striping
• New aft bimini with sun screen
• Brand-new Strataglass flybridge enclosure (approx. $11k value)
• Major 3000-hour Yanmar service just completed (approx. $5k value)
The PDQ 34 has earned its reputation for comfort, efficiency, and capability in a manageable package—and Tranquility Base is a strong example of why these boats continue to have such a loyal following.

As you enter the vessel, you will note a large salon area, a curved seating area on your left and a lower helm on your right. You are surrounded by windows and a door that provide outstanding 360 degree visibility. The height and light of that openness that make the boat feel much larger than a 34 footer. In this area, you will find space to entertain 6 to 8; people, a table that seats six and drops down to make a queen size berth. On the port side midship is the galley containing a refrigerator/freezer, double sink, and Gourmet air fryer oven, pantry and lots of storage. Aft of that is a stateroom with queen size berth and again lots of storage area. On the starboard side midship is a changing area with lots of shelf and hanging storage. Forward is the head with Lavac manual salt water toilet, large showering area and a medicine cabinet. Aft is what is usually considerad the master stateroom with a queen berth lots cabinets, hanging storage, opening port, tan, and large opening hatch aft. Both staterooms have heat and AC.
Ascending the stairs to the flybridge, you will find a large open seating area, great far entertaining in nice weather. The Todd helm chairs are custom as well as the instrument/steering wheel cover. There are two new folding chairs. On the foredeck you will find four lockers, two are all the way forward in the hull. On the port side the generator is located in a sound insulated compartment with lots of storage forward. The starboard side is primarily far storage but also contains the black water discharge pump and the raw water wash down pump all at eye level far ease of maintenance. In between the two hull storage areas are two smaller hatches that give access to the fresh water tank and the forward fuel tank. Lots of storage is available above both tanks. In between these two lockers is the anchor chain storage area that is accessible from behind the seat in the salon.
Accommodations

There are now 114 PDQ powercats cruising the world with over 500,000 miles under their keels. As a result, PDQ 34s have gained a reputation for being strong, reliable, fast and very comfortable.
Galley
The Galley is well laid out and uses its space very efficiently. It is located mid-ship in the port hull. The Galley is open to the Salon and Dinette area and provides good ventilation and ease in socializing with people in the Salon while performing Galley chores. Storage is remarkable with lots of cabinets and under floor storage. There are two opening ports to add ventilation.

Engine & Mechanical Equipment
The MV/34 is powered by Twin 75 HP Yanmar Turbo-Charged Diesels. This provides cruise speed of 13 knots and a fuel burn of about 4.5 GPH. These engines have been very well maintained and now have 3900 hours on them. They are in excellent working order. The full service was just completed in June.
Electronics & Navigational Equipment
Tranquility Base has all the basic navigational equipment.
LOWER HELM ELECTRONICS:
Flybridge
The Flybridge from the factory is a beautiful layout. The Radar Mast and Bimini Top can easily be dropped down by one person for cruising under low structures. There are not many cruising boats that offer as comfortable a flybridge in just 34′ of LOA. Truly remarkable.
UPPER HELM ELECTRONICS
Deck Equipment
In addition to the deck equipment, this boat has a Heavy Duty Radar Mast with GPS Antenna, Radar Dome, VHF Antenna, and the required navigational lights. The PDQ 34 features large storage locker in each hull at the bow. The generator is installed in the port bow locker and is very accessible for maintenance. Each hull has a water-tight “crash” bulkhead built in below the waterline in the forward section of each hull. There are also nice storage areas located on top of the auxiliary fuel tank and the water tank.

Chuck at The Multihull Company is the real deal.
He helped us find our Lagoon 40 after genuinely listening to what we needed, not just what he had to sell. He let us visit the boat multiple times, answered every question honestly, and helped us make a confident decision on a major purchase.
What impressed us most was the post-sale support. Once the paperwork was signed, Chuck was still picking up the phone, offering referrals, and helping us work through the early stages of liveaboard life. That kind of follow-through is rare.
If you are looking for a multihull and want someone who knows the boats and actually cares about the outcome, Chuck is the person to call.
We just purchased a 2025 Nautitech 44 Open with The Multihull Company. The process of getting here has been great, and we could not have asked for a better agent. We worked with Conor, whom we met at the 2025 Cannes Boat Show. We started our search for a cruising catamaran in Florida at the beginning of the year. We spent a couple of months looking at different boats/models within our price range and quickly narrowed it down to what really mattered to us, in part thanks to the wealth of knowledge and expertise our broker provided. When we found a perfect match in Montenegro, Conor and The Multihull Company did not hesitate to continue supporting us and to lead the efforts from start to finish with great care and transparency. Communication and support have been outstanding throughout this entire process. Conor, in particular, showed great compassion and care, going above and beyond to ensure that no stone was left unturned and that we would be able to safely and happily sail off into our big adventure.
A sale well handled. No inflated expectations and an honest opinion throughout. Highly recommended.
Absolutely THE ONLY company to use for buying or selling a catamaran! Our Broker Andrew Hodgdon, was excellent to work with, an experienced catamaran captain with extensive knowledge of sailing catamarans, the ins and outs of the construction, performance, systems, everything involved and life on board catamarans. All of which is invaluable in looking for the right boat for someone to buy or helping market your boat when selling. The Multihull Company is so connected in the catamaran world and used by so many catamaran sailors and searchers that we had an interested buyer before our boat was even listed and a completed sale 60 days after her first showing!!! Thanks Andrew and all of the Multihull team who worked diligently to make it happen so smoothly!
We had a great experience working with Andrew! He was extremely knowledgeable and listened to our needs of what we wanted our next boat to be. He responded quickly to all of our requests and got us to the finish line. Working with Multihull was seamless and we highly recommend using Andrew and Multihull.
