I think you've done some good recon and received some solid feedback.
Best of luck w/ your pursuit of building a new Nor-Tech! |
I’m going for a ride tomarrow.. Today 280 gallons fuel 9 adults we ran 77 mph and the boat was on rails! |

I've yet to hear anyone claim a quad 39 capable of 90mph. My guess is more like 85mph. I would say the length, weight & CG of the 39 overcome the lift. 1050 h.p. behind a 34' boat trimmed up so that's allot of leverage coupled w/ the air trapped under the top in front of the windshield. IMO 1200 h.p. or 150 h.p. more behind a 39' boat that weighs more doesn't have the ability to get the same lift. I also don't believe the large top affects or contributes to the lift, it's the air that is stacked up under the top at the windscreen that causes the lift. The shape is the same regardless of whether you opt for standard or large top. The large top is beneficial if you opt for 2nd row seating on a 39. Better wind / weather protection for more passengers. We had 4 on board returning from the Bahamas in 4-5 footers w/ rain and whoever sat on the cooler behind the helm got drenched w/ the rain that rolls off the backside of the standard top. |
Good info, I stand corrected. Thanks Erik |

Thanks for the post! T-top looks smaller also with box delete (better performance/visibility?). Looks like the also tweaked the tubing towards the side of the console instead of in front of the windshield. Any pics of the rear seat?

I asked about the top w/o the overhead compartment on the boat pictured and as suspected it is the small top off the 344 GT. I thought the new seat was standard but I'm told it's like a $9000 option available on 340's or 390's. |
359
i have the standard top. No rod holders. White. Grey and light grey interior. Air. Trip 350s. |
