Fairline Targa 34 - Model Overview (from original brochure)
She might be the smallest, but she's also the fastest boat in the Fairline fleet. Superbly engineered and planned, the Targa 34 has a top speed of 40 knots - yet is one of the very few boats in her class to feature two separate sleeping cabins. As with many Fairlines, she has the luxury and the presence of much larger, slower, more expensive boats.

Her Olesinski hull delivers a smooth ride even in choppy seas, enabling you to maintain a brisk pace, even as skippers of less agile boats are backing off on the throttles.

This kind of fun was made for sharing. The 34's wide helm seats enable three guests to ride alongside the pilot; alternatively, they can sink into the fully upholstered settee in the rear, where a hideaway table creates an al fresco dining area in seconds. The settee quickly converts into an enormous (and immensely comfortable) sunbed. A drinks bar, electric fridge, sink and drinks holders are all within lazy reach.

For swimmers, there's a big, teak-decked, bathing platform aft, complete with wide-tread transom ladder and hot/cold shower. Clever stowage planning helps keep the decks safe and clutter-free.

In the saloon below, there's 6'6" (1 98cm) headroom - truly remarkable in a boat of this size. Clutter vanishes inside warm honey maple or American cherry lockers. The saloon's settee converts into an extra double bed, and a stereo, dry bar, bathroom and shower come as standard.

In the forward cabin, a big double berth, cunningly angled, creates comfort and space. The aft cabin sleeps two in comfort on twin 6'8" (2.03m) beds.

The galley is a study in ingenious space planning, offering a sink, two-burner gas hob, oven and grill, complemented by ample stowage.

Fairline Targa - Range Overview (from original brochure)
The five models in Fairline’s Targa range have come to define the luxury express cruiser, with outstanding performance, a sleek, athletic build, and excellent use of space. Their deep-V Olesinski hulls cut and plane effortlessly through the heaviest levels of seas, provide soft riding into head seas, and cocoon you with the highest levels of creature comforts and equipment. Naturally, the Fairline’s heritage runs deep: behind the head-turning good looks, clever detailing and gleaming trim, the build quality is impeccable. The fine American cherry or honey maple cabinetry, stunning décor, sparkling halogen lighting and well-equipped galleys are just some of the features that come as standard on all Targa models.

Fairline Brochure Foreword (from original brochure)

More than skin deep...
THE FAIRLINE MARQUE WAS BORN of one man's vision and passion for excellence. Jack Newington, the company's founder, was a man committed to the highest ideals of quality and integrity; more than that, he had the rare ability to take his own high standards and values and weave them into the fabric of what was to become a hugely successful enterprise. Even today, forty years later, these values still drive everything we do. Fairline excels at building beautiful boats that delight, exhilarate and astonish their owners. This is the marque for those who look beyond the brash and the superficial; these are boats with a beauty and integrity that is very much 'More than Skin Deep'.

Exceeding the expectations of some of the most quality-sensitive customers in the world isn't easy. The ability to deliver real pleasure of ownership, year after year, calls for an unwavering company culture and an unquestioning core commitment, to build the very best. That Fairline has succeeded is readily apparent. Praise and the attention of the world's press greets each new Fairline introduction, and the marque commands universal respect for its unique ability to meld traditional skilled craftsmanship with cutting-edge innovations of the 21st century. Success is apparent, too, in the satisfyingly high residual values associated with our motor yachts, and - above all - in the fact that Fairline owners wishing to explore new models overwhelmingly do so within rather than outside the Fairline stable.

Stunning, exhilarating and seductive though they are on the surface, there's much, much more to a Fairline than meets the eye. Come, let's explore.

A Fairline is in the details
Every Fairline is the confluence of a bold creative vision, a clear sense of purpose and a sound seafaring pragmatism. These attributes combine to create a motor yacht that intuitively feels 'right', instilling a sense of comfort and confidence in everyone who steps aboard.

The evocative lines of each boat are a classic merging of form and function. The hull form - responsible for the dry, secure and responsive ride that is the hallmark of every Fairline - comes from the studios of renowned naval architect Bernard Olesinski, while Fairline's Design, Engineering and Product Development team creates and refines every other aspect of the boat's design - from the bold style statements of the superstructure to the smallest interior detail.

Enriching the wealth of practical in-house design experience is feedback from our worldwide network of dealers and, above all from Fairline owners. We support international rallies; enabling Fairline designers to talk directly with Fairline customers about real-world, hands-on design issues and practicalities.

And it's not mere talk, either. Recent improvements include changes to dashboard and instrumentation layouts, the darkening of materials in certain areas to minimise glare, and the separation of compass and gauge illumination to maximise night-vision retention.

Such practical touches abound, making every moment aboard a pleasure. You might take for granted the self-parking wipers, or the eye-friendly red night-lighting at the lower helm position, but if you've spent much time at cruising speed aboard other motor yachts, you'll certainly appreciate the ingenious fixed crockery stowage and the push-flush, anti-rattle door locks fitted throughout your Fairline.

For the same, eminently practical reasons, when you need a cockpit power socket to inflate the dinghy, you'll find one waiting, working (thanks to thorough waterproofing) and perfectly to hand. Overhead handrails will always, magically, be where they should be. And when you see the lengths to which we have gone to ensure that your enjoyment of a peaceful anchorage is not disturbed by noisy generators or the dribble and splash of their seawater exhausts, you'll start to understand the essence of the Fairline philosophy: quality, integrity and pride of ownership cannot be a pretty but fragile veneer... it must run very deep.

Unmatched levels of service
A vitally important part of the experience of being a Fairline owner is the commitment and integrity you will encounter at your local Fairline dealership. These are highly professional, thriving businesses in their own right, serving as representatives of Fairline within a network of dealerships stretching right around the world.

Your Fairline dealer will enhance every aspect of your Fairline ownership. His intimate local knowledge and experience will help you find the right Fairline, and ensure that it delivers the supreme pleasure of ownership for which this marque is justly renowned. Should the need arise, your Fairline dealer will also help you take advantage of the traditionally buoyant brokerage market, helping you to trade up smoothly and easily.
