I n surprised a 70 didn’t have enough room for more batteries. My old 53 originally had two 32v banks in the gen room and I added 8 golf cart...
Geez. Even back then hatteras used separate batteries for the gens. I hated how one starting bank doubled up as house bank. Changed all that...

Yes I dug these numbers from my old notes. while the numbers vary slightly with each boats the overall result remain the same: the worst speed...
For a boat like yours, hull speed is about 10.5 to 10.9 kts. One single knot over that is going to cause your fuel burn to jump 60-70%. 2 knots...
In all fairness when most of us read this “and I normally run slower than that running 12 - 14 kts or so” or 200gph WOT on 3412Es it does...

Anyone familiar with this boat? It s taking on water at the entrance to the west river in the Chesie. 120 San Lorenzo pictures from social...
