I may have posted my questions in the wrong Forum earlier so I will try here,....
We removed the 240DA from our list and replaced it with a 270DA. We are now searching for a 260DA or 270DA.
I am not too familiar with the 7.4 engine package but we really like the cockpit and cabin layout in the 270. This particular 2000 270DA has all the options I want and more. I have a lot of questions,...
What should I be looking for and asking when I go look at this on Sat? (fresh water used)
Anyone know what kind of fuel usage we can expect to get out of the 7.4 VS 350mag? We typically would cruise in our old boat around 21mph, I know you can't compare the two but what kinda fuel burn should I see with the 7.4? I am not interested in reaching tremendous speeds just like to reach our destinations slowly and enjoy the views.
Can I trailer it? (2 times a year) short distance? Is the 9' 2" beam too wide for a trailer and would I need a permit?
Thanks in advance for any advice, I have a ton more questions,....
