We have a 24 hp Yanmar and do quite not reach hull speed probably due to over-pitching of our prop. I suspect other Coast 34 owners would be very interested in what you did. I will contact you directly to discuss putting some info up in the Coast 34 Owners web site.

We have just re powered and would be interested if any other owners out there would like to see what we did. <br />As you know most of the coast 34's are over the weight listed in the specs. Ours is just under 20,000 lbs and the 24 hp yanmar was not enough to give us hull speed. So we re powered with a Beta 38 with a few engine cover modifications. Now we have no trouble.
