IMO, Nor-Tech has the best cockpit access and pathway between the backseat and the engines on all their models. On some the rigging is so in the way I don't see how one doesn't trip navigating around the back of the boat.

Looks like you put the 340 lounger in ??? Great minds think alike !!!!

Really nice new swim platform. :ernaehrung004:

Looks like power steering on the two outside engines. When I repowered this year I had to buy an additional power steering unit because Merc requires one on each engine on a twin 400 set up, where as they only required one engine with the 300s.

Bill- not sure I follow when you mention the 340 Lounger. In my previous 340's I had the lounger shortened 13" in order to accommodate the U shape bench seating in the bow. With the 390 being 5' longer I now have the full length lounger + longer U shape bench seating w/ the seat backs.
Is that what you were referencing, the bench seat w/ seat backs?
Those are money!!

It looked like you put the shorter lounger up front in the 390. When I built my 390 I had them put the 340 length lounger up front to give me added walkway up front.
Smaller bed in cabin but hell i am never going to sleep in it.

Ok, got ya, yes I did that on both 340's which was a necessity in order to have the U shape seating.
Then I needed the berth extension in order to be able to fit in the berth length wise.
I only spent 1nt on each boat, kind to say I did (like camping in your own back yard as a kid) but I prefer to have the option.
NT finally adopted my lounger lumbar seat cushion as an option. I was known as a real PITA asking for things like the U shape seating & lumbar lounger, now they are either standard or at least an option available to all.

Things that make you go Hmmm??:party-smiley-004:

I was playing around one day and only had the motor (300) without the steering running. NOT easy to steer!

Oh, and not to hi-jack, these Nor-tech's are great looking boats!

So what is the fish boat designation since it too is a 39?

They use 392 for the Superfish designator.
