Need Assistance With the History of This Boat
Hello All,
I'm a newbie to the whole lifestyle of power boating and to this board, but was wanting to see if anyone out there had any information they might be willing to share?? I recently purchased a 2001 DCB Mach 34 (F-34) in an auction there in Lake Havasu, but have yet to receive the title to it. I was just wanting to know if anyone might be able to give a little information on it, as to who the previous owner was, where the boat was run and how, and anything else that you might feel helpful in determining the history and story of this boat. It came without engines nor drives, so I have a project on my hands for sure, but look forward to undertaking the task. I don't know if the engines were removed for a quick cash sale or if they were removed to be rebuilt and are still sitting in someone's shop or garage or if they were blown at some point and worthless. The drives...same story on them...were they sold, in the process of being rebuilt or are they floating around somewhere taking up space?? Any assistance would be greatly appreciated. I have contacted Dave at DCB and he is working up quotes for the replacement engine hatches and seat cushions (oh yeah...they were missing too). Thank you much and I look forward to learning all I can from the experienced driver's/pilots of these beasts.

Well...I was going to post some pictures of the boat, but I read a little further down and it states I am not allowed to post attachments. Does anyone know how I can gain permission to post attachments?? Please advise. The registration number of the boat is AZ 0426 BF. I'm happy to send pics via email if anyone is willing to assist me with this "research project". Thanks again.

I was looking at that boat. I don't know the history other than at one point it had big 900s or something and number 6s. It was for sale with engines for like 130K and then showed up at auction without. google 2001 dcb f34 and look at pics, etc...
