The Saxon 34 is a classic British cruising sloop designed by the prolific naval architect Alan Buchanan in the late 1950s. Built primarily by R J Prior & Son in Burnham-on-Crouch, the vessel was engineered to meet the rigorous Lloyds 100 A1 classification, a testament to its robust scantlings and offshore aspirations. Historically, the Saxon 34 represents a bridge between the pure racing lines of the era and the requirement for a capable, seaworthy family cruiser. It was famously developed as a more voluminous and comfortable evolution of Buchanan’s highly successful racing yacht, Vashti, which dominated the RORC (Royal Ocean Racing Club) circuit in the early 1960s. Constructed typically with carvel mahogany planking over Canadian Rock Elm timbers, the Saxon 34 remains a quintessential example of mid-century British wooden boatbuilding.
