75 HP Fuel burn

I apologize in advance, I’m sure the answer is in the archives, but I was unable to put my finger on it. I have a friend looking at a 34 with 75’s and wants to know the GPH Burn rate at 14 knots.

I of course know it for the 110’s, but ......

Thanks in advance. BTW, I sure miss Vita Bella.

Re: Boat Insurance

I have Chubb, through a broker here in California. I hear through the Coconut Telegraph that Geico (formally Boat US) has raised their rates & several on the dock have switched to Chubb.

I purchased one directly from RayMarine, as My remote failed as well.

Got a CPAP Aboard?

Question has popped up on where one places a CPAP machine aboard our 34’s? Is the ledge by the rear window the place or simply on the berth?

Asking for a friend! 😎

Berth access modifications??

Has anyone modified access making the berth easier to get into & out of? I’m looking for ideas that would make it easier for my wife who is having difficulty.

Re: Fresh Water water flow PDQ 34

Vita Bella, Hull 114, came equipped with a water filter and it was just below the refrigerator. PDQ left a cardboard box with 2 water pick up tubes for water tanks in my water tank that were placed there for transportation to PDQ. The ensuing problem of the cardboard falling apart created real issue...

Re: Cabinet Storage?

I think I have a brochure on the boat that shows the W/d combo installed. I will look and post if I still have it.

Re: Cabinet Storage?

If memory serves me, the space outboard of the “beverage” cabinet was used for the optional washer/ dryer combo that was offered as an upgrade.

Ice maker GFI

Our ice maker is located to the right of the Flybridge helm. For the 3rd time the GFI receptical powering the ice maker has tripped and it looks like the GFI is toast. When this GFI trips, it takes out the electrical receptical built into the flybridge bench port side aft, which is also a GFI plug. ...

Re: Switches on 120 volt panel

On Vita Bella (hull 114), the switches illuminate the entire panels with red light. Handy but don’t forget to turn them off!

Re: Steering Fluid Reservoir

My understanding is that there is simply fluid in the line, no major reservoir. Be sure to fill it from the flybridge helm.

Re: Ultra leather fabric color

We have the Blue Ultra Leather on Vita Bella. I won't be at the boat until the 20th or so, but will go through my paperwork to see if a color is identified and let you know if it is.
