We here at Center Console Life were ecstatic to attend the unveiling of the Grady-White Freedom 345 at the 2024 Fort Lauderdale International Boat Show, Standing as a prime example of why dual-console boats are so highly regarded.
This 34-foot vessel combines exceptional craftsmanship with meticulous attention to real fine detail, offering a feature-rich design that sets a new standard for what’s possible in the 34’ class.
The Grady-White Freedom 345 features impressive dimensions, with a length of 33’6″ (10.21 m) and a beam of 11’7″ (3.53 m), providing a stable and spacious platform for both cruising and fishing. Bridge clearance stands at 9’5″ (2.87 m).
With a maximum horsepower rating of 1,050 HP (783 kW) and a standard fuel capacity of 293 gallons (1,109 liters), it can handle the twin 350 Yamaha Four-Stroke with no problem. The twins will grant a top speed of 56.2 MPH at 6100 RPM, and smooth cruising at 30.5 MPH and 3600 RPM.
An XTO Offshore® 450 Twin option is also available.
Additionally, the 345 features a well-appointed compact wet bar with a refrigerator and sink, VacuFlush® head, ample storage, along with all the amenities one might need for extended adventures.
We look forward to performing a full test in the near future!
