    Engine room Insulation, 07 34pc

    I pulled the engines and generator to have good access to clean and fix some maintenance items. During this process I tried to clean the sound insulation but failed, so decided it's time to change it out. Maybe because it's still fresh I think it was a bad choice but this is not an easy job...

    Cleaning engine room foam insulation

    I am doing a bunch of bilge cleaning this year, and have engines/generator out. I took the waste tank out also, it seems a broken vent line allowed caused some issues. There's a lot of mold build up and the foam insulation and waste hoses concentrated around the waste tank outlets. Is there a...

    Formula stainless window snap buttons, 07 34pc

    Hi All, I have an 07 34pc but I suspect this may be similar on many formulas. The snap studs on the top of the window frame are mushed/distorted on our boat. These are riveted on. I drilled out a rivet and went to install the new buttons I have, but realized the hole that Formula drilled is...

    07 34pc cockpit refrigerator door latch repair

    The latch broke on our cockpit stainless isotherm fridge door. We have the earlier model that apparently has a welded in latch and thus is not serviceable. I ordered a new door and it was the wrong one. I didn't want to be without a door for the weekend, and figured I have a new one on order...

    Full raymarine E80 system off 2007 34PC

    Just stripped all the raymarine stuff out of our 34pc. Not sure if it has much value, figure I would post if here if anyone has any interest. Everything worked when removed, except the E80 lost position fix occasionally, but had no external GPS that I saw. E80, DSM300, seatalk switch, 24"...

    34pc steering wheel diameter?

    I'm upgrading to hydraulic steering, and the steering wheel is the last piece of the puzzle. Does anyone know what the diameter of the stock 34pc steering wheel is? The boat is 2 hours away and I forgot to measure last time I was there.

    Updating electronics rabbit hole... Bennett Trim tab indicator control upgrade?

    I am redoing electronics on the 34PC,and the dash has the now obsolete Bennett trim tab indicator that hasn't worked since we got the boat a year ago. I went to buy a new one for planning the new dash, and they are no long available. Only the combination button/indicators are available now...

    Trim limit not working, 34PC DTS with new transom assemblies

    I have brand new transom assemblies installed and buttoned up. I set the digital trim sensor to 22-24 counts, but the trim limit switch isn't working. It still trim's all the way up to trailer with the trim buttons. I do not know how they worked before as the boat is new to us. I went...

    Where/how to store vinyl windows when underway

    On our 330ss we just rolled up the windows in sheets and left them on the front v-birth. However on the 34pc there are a ton more windows and that also leaves the v-birth cluttered up if someone wants to nap during the day. Where you do all store them when not zipped up? Rolled up in sheets?

    New Drives include dual/low water pickup, any disadvantage?

    I bought new drives due to a severe electrolysis issue from the previous owner/previous marina. The place we got the drives from must only stock sea core bravo 3 X, and at the price we paid was an amazing deal. However, these also have the dual water pickups (holes in the back of the cone)...

    Powering up 12 V systems with the engines out 07 34PC

    Does anyone know an easy way to power up 12V systems in the boat with out the engines in? I understand stuff that goes through the engine harness won't work, but I'd like to do some troubleshooting on the bow thrust-er and other systems while at the boat this weekend. I know I couldn't get the...

    Drive antifouling paint for band new seacore drives

    We have brand new drives and transom assemblies for our 34pc, and wondering what to put on it for protection. Pettit recommends sanding with 60grit and then priming and painting with hydrocoat eco. I just don't feel right sanding brand new drives with special coatings. Any recommendations...

    2007 34PC cockpit lighting, is the arch light separate (new to us boat)

    We have the arch liner out of the boat as well as many other parts for cleaning and repairing. We aren't close to the boat and haven't had time to play with every last detail since having it transported up. My question is, does the arch light come on with all of the other courtesy/cockpit...

    07 34PC chartplotter upgrade, dash options

    We have a new to us 07 34pc, with the Raymarine E80. It looks like the Raymarine Axium 12 is just a tad larger in all dimensions, and "may" fit. I like some of the simrad stuff also, but the way Formula layed out the pre-08 dash it is really tough for bigger electronics. It appears to be a...

    2007 Formula 34PC ST60 Graphic display, just for heading info?

    I was under the wrong assumption that the ST60 controlled an autopilot, but apparently after digging into the boat this isn't the case. Is this just for redundant (separate from chart plotter) heading display?

    Replacing bravo 3 drives on 34pc, worth the upgrade to bravo 3 x?

    We have a 2007 34pc, and the previous owner got into some very bad galvanic corrosion issues. The drives are toast. We have a possible find of bravo 3 x drives for 600 more a piece than the standard bravo 3. It is my understanding they came on the 496 HO models. Is there any benefit to...

    Winter cover options, local or Fisher (also local ironically)

    This is our first winter with our new to us 34PC. We were lucky with our 330SS, it fit inside a local warehouse and was trailer able. The 34pc is not easily trailerd, and even if it was it wouldn't fit into the warehouse so it stays at the shore. After reading a bunch here, and online, it is...

    Pulling engines on a 2004 or newer 34pc

    Has anyone pulled their engines out on a 34 (probably similar for 37) PC? Any advice on removing the engine hatch, and getting the engines out a pretty tight opening? Unfortunately the transom assemblies on the boat we just bought were as rotted as the drives.
