Hustler Info Needed

My Cheetah appears to have had a battery charger in it at one time on the Port side above the battery. I'd like to know what else this could have been?

What would it take to add shore power?

What is the bilge painted with? Color code and Brand?

What size and model numbers are the hatches in the newer models? Mine does not have hatches and its very warm in there!!

The trailer Is not nothced for the steps and there are chips and cracks in the gel at the steps. Should I trim the trailer bunks for relief at the steps? Or was this simply caused by someone driving the boat off the trailer and not floating it off?

Strip, use these as chapters in your "Hustler" book and I'll buy the first copy!!

I am not familiar with the 34,going off picks and the assumption its like the 38


most that have shore power have the CCharles onboard charger, mine was a 30amp,some were 20-25,the ac panel below the 12v panel,

As what iv seen the wiring harness is prewired for most ascorys,if it has the 110v panel,shorepower plug port carpeted panel by rear port speaker,under the seat should have a switch panel also,

The paint is a off white, its very thin in mine you can see the black fiberglass/kev/carbon thru it,


my Myco doesn't fir the bottom perfect, there places that the pad doesn't touch and over hangs, I guess if these no support to the pad are it not going to support it,Remember the bottom on the 34 is diff from a 38,I have a bunch of trailer picks with the boat on it and with out.


it should have vents on the Front of the hatch unless its a flat hatch style

you can see the over hang and the first set of steped bunks is short, I make sure there none hanging off the back.

Thanks Strip. Any idea what type of paint they painted the bilge with? Its not Awl Grip.

I do have an circuit panel under the rear seat. Didn see shore power plu though and no panel in the cuddy.

I will fix the gel on the steps, and modify the trailer at least to get the pressure off the steps.


I have a line on 525's that I might buy and sell the 500's. Any thoughts on that?

It would be a 15K upgrade from the 500's. Not sure its worth it.

I see from your pictures that you have some chips out of your steps too Strip.
