The Didi Mini is compact and fast cruiser racer with good performance and is the smaller sister to the DIDI 38. She is a bit more cruising orientated than the 38 .Designed to be a good all-round performer, the Didi 34 will be able to account well for herself in round the buoys or passage races while still being a comfortable small cruiser.

Radius chine plywood simplicity and economy

Construction is radius chine plywood, designed for ease of construction and to achieve a strong and light structure which could be built by people with average handyman skills and a modest budget.

Thoroughly modern

Her lines are thoroughly modern, with short overhangs, fine bow at the waterline and moderately powerful stern. Sections are slightly Veed throughout the length. The forward underbody has been shaped to develop dynamic lift to keep the bow up at speed and promote surfing.

The hull has moderate beam and is well flared to give a narrow waterline, reduced drag and improved comfort at sea.

Draft of the standard keel is 1.9m but the drawings also include a shallower option of 1.5m draft for shallow water areas. Stability is similar with both keels but the shallower one is heavier, so performance on all headings is reduced.

Easily handled deck stepped rig

The mast is deck-stepped on top of a post aft of the main bulkhead, structurally the most sound solution for a timber boat. It places everything below the mast in compression rather than trying to force the hull and deck apart, as happens with a keel-stepped mast. It also eliminates the problem of water going below through the mast and collar.

Comfortable and practical interior

Down below, the midship engine gives excellent access for maintenance, places the heavy weight at the optimum position to reduce pitching and allows a flatter after underbody because the weight is not having to be supported as far aft. It also allows a good seagoing U-shape galley to be built around the engine, with centreline sinks.

The saloon settees are integral water tanks and the saloon table is a box in two sections. The lower is an epoxy coated plywood fuel tank and the upper is a storage compartment.

The separation between sleeping cabins makes her well suited to small family or two-couple cruising, with the settees serving as alternate berths for bad weather. The lazarette is large and has compartments for liferaft, gas and batteries.
