It has the look of a Bayliner.

It does, and it's single engine, not particularly desirable for close
quarters maneuvering with a high profile, flybridge design like that.
Once the wind catches you things get very dicey if you are near docks
and other boats.
The 34 does sorta have a Bayliner look to it, but I like some of their
other models.
Although single screw, the boat shown in the video had both bow and
stern thrusters which overcome some of the close quarter maneuvering
challenges. The single screw 36' Grand Banks we had was equipped with a
hydraulically powered stern thruster which was useful although it was
not particularly powerful. It was still fun learning "back and fill".
I understand that Beneteau boats have a very good reputation but I've
never been aboard one. I like this one though:

Here we go. Now I just need to find a one acre barge with grass that I
can tow for the horses.
