@YYZRC I notice you have the 340 badge on your boat.  That’s odd.

My 330 badges were faded and gross so I “upgraded”

PSA. Mold under fridge. Yuck.

@Spyderweb , I think 2007 was the first year for the 330 (2007-2008).

I think I got that impression from the 2008 catolag.  Just by a fluke I happened to have that catalog from a 2008 boat show and a 2009.  The 2008 states “the New 330 puts cruising in a whole new dimension”.  That wording (“new”) is not in the 2009 catalog.  Could just be marketing hype too.  Also, I guess I’ve never seen a 2007 advertised on Boattrader.

Added some starboard shelves in the coat closet

Radio remote is gone gone gone!



Helm cover almost done. Going to add a flap to cover the VHF remote.

@aero3113 or @Spyderweb do either of you have an issue with your walk thru windshield? Mine is either out of square (I keep forgetting to bring my square) or maybe the windshield has shifted somewhat.

Here’s a pic I have of mine, seems to look pretty even. If it was off, I’m sure I would’ve noticed.

YYZRC

Just took it apart and got it back to square. The gap still isn’t even. Winter project!

aero3113

Looks a lot better!

aero3113

You can adjust the support post also (shorter or longer). That might help with the gap a little bit if you only need a turn or two.

YYZRC

You just blew my mind. I had no idea those support rods were adjustable!!

I just raised the starboard side by 5/8 and it’s near perfectly aligned now!

aero3113

That’s awesome @YYZRC !! Glad to help 👍👍

I think I'm pretty good, but now you got me curious.  Will check next time up.  @aero3113 good information on those adjustable posts.  Who knew?

YYZRC

Got a few extra RPMs out of her yesterday!

TonyG13

At first glance I was like wow! Had to remember you're KPH! But still wow! 

aero3113

@YYZRC , looks like we are exactly the same. This is at 5000 RPM on analog gauges.

YYZRC

Love it!! When are you going to get the VV mobile up and running??

aero3113

I passed on it for now, maybe next season.

aero3113

Forgot I have my winch tool in there also.

Handy looking bin. Could easily be added @YYZRC if you can find one someplace.

YYZRC

I think I prefer the clean look without it. There are lots of small storage spaces on this boat and not enough large ones!!

YYZRC

Does anyone know the ID of the drain hose from the cockpit sink? 3/4”?

YYZRC

Swapped out the pop out fuse for a breaker. 

aero3113

Nice! Now paint those screw heads! LoL

OCD a little nail polish goes a long way

YYZRC

I did, just waiting on them to dry!!

I need to order the snaps for the bottom frame of the windshield for my cockpit cover. Anyone know how many I will need and have a part number? I know a picture was posted in a different thread but can’t find it.

I don’t have a cockpit cover so I’m not sure how many snaps but I would estimate one every 8”

aero3113

Thank you, I can lay the cover out and count how many.
