The Legacy 34 Express features a roomy and comfortably appointed bridgedeck and cockpit. Overhead, a custom hardtop shades the bridgedeck, but occasionally, the temptation to open the enclosure and enjoy the fresh air will be there. Visibility from the helm is excellent. Although the engine compartment is directly underfoot, careful insulation and baffles keep noise levels well in check. Access is via a large, hydraulic-assisted hatch.

Her hull is balsa-cored E-glass and polyester resin with an outer laminate of vinylester resin for improved resistance to blistering. Directional weave fabrics are selected to orient the fiber in the direction of the loads, so that the hull is stiff and strong, yet light. High-density foam stringers replace conventional wood ones to eliminate the transfer of engine vibration. The hull to deck joint is bonded and mechanically fastened on six-inch centers to the inboard turning hull flange. Below the waterline, the Mark Ellis design features a moderate-V bottom with wide chine flats aft, a steep entry, a pair of lifting strakes, and a skeg providing a soft ride with roll dampened significantly. She tracks well even in cross or quartering seas and corners with astonishingly little heel. More importantly, while many planing hulls have to run at high speeds to achieve plane and level out the bow, this boat lifts onto a plane at lower speeds. Her unique underbody configuration allows her to go faster while using less fuel.

Through the companionway door, the cabin features inviting accommodations that resemble a condominium. To starboard there is a large head with separate stall shower. To port, there\'s a well-equipped galley with refrigerator, two-burner stove, and stainless sink.The forward stateroom features an island double bunk with plenty of stowage beneath, along with bureau cabinets port and starboard. The interior wood is varnished cherry and has a light, airy feel of elegance.  

The aft cockpit has three bench seats, adding to the enjoyment of this beautifully styled Downeaster.
