    My interior wall panels seem to be “Beluga off-white”. I haven’t tried to match the cockpit cushions yet as mine are in good shape.

    I wouldn’t think the interior is considered “off-white” more of a tan.

    A LOT easier to tick off option boxes for a new boat.

    Does anyone know if the “rib” on the underside of the swim platform is solid or hollow?

    As usual the photo is upside down...

    @Alswagg Al are you still around?  Does the swim platform underside rib provide any function/structural benefit, or is it just aesthetic?

    Of course I can’t find the engine hatch thread - how do you close the hatch with the batteries disconnected??

    Plug in to shore power turn on battery charger  and hatch should work.

    And don't forget to turn on the battery switches and helm power.

    Ask @javhav he rebuilt his platform. Search: bringing 342 back to life

    Yeah but they are probably both same materials like the foam core

    The swim platform question was over a month ago and I figured it out, but thanks.

    I used a gallon for my 342 and add a quart of 216 thinner made it enough to cover and went on better.

    I was going to paint the bottom myself but got an estimate from a company (same company that did my shrink wrap) for $495. I feel that’s a pretty good price, what do you think? The one thing I don’t look forward to doing on the boat is bottom painting.

    Agree with Chris my 342 was over a gallon. $495 is probably pretty good if it includes paint. But isn’t your boat in your back yard? I hate painting the bottom too but man it’s just so easy that I’d rather pay someone to do other things...

    $495 sounds great if it includes materials. By the time you tape off the hull and drives and prep...

    It’s not hard work but it’s not terribly satisfying in my opinion.
