Im reading through the owners packet from my recently purchased 340 EC and it mentions a recessed can opener. I cant find it. Does anyone know where it is or where its supposed to be? Was it possibly an option and mine doesn't have it? Also it says its equipped with autopilot and it runs off the accessory breaker. Where is the autopilot control and how can I check if it works?
 
Take a photo of your helm and we can probably identify the autopilot for you. It is worth noting, however, that with boats our age it's pretty likely that many/most of the boats systems have been altered from OEM at some point in its lifetime. Electronics in particular.

No clue on the can opener. I can picture such a thing existing in or under a cabinet in the galley but I can't say I've ever seen one...
 
If you had the can opener, it would be out in the open on the front of galley cabinets.

Like on a magnet.
 
I also have a speaker with a button below it in the corner of the galley. Does anyone know what its for? I attached a picture. Theres also a speaker at the helm that i dont know what its for. Maybe they are connected? The galley speaker looks factory, the one at the helm does not. Thanks

Push the button and ask the galley wench to send up a brew?
 
The can opener would be to the right of the galley sink. Do you have the built-in coffee maker? It would be next to it.
 
Yes I have the coffee maker. I looked all over theres nothing else so its probably long gone.
 
Does any one know what this is? It was mounted behind the dark plastic access panel under the helm. Looks like it was factory installed the way it was mounted. Obviously dont need it anymore just wondering what it was for. Thanks

Alarm buzzer?
 
I thought of that but theres no speaker on it and my alarm works so that cant be it.
