Hi
The stickers with the engine number(s) are worn away. Any ideas where else Mr Volvo recorded these numbers? Are they stamped on the engine somewhere?

Hi,
I've just been quoted ?1500 for re covering the seats in the main cabin (lounge) in my Targa 31.
Sounds a bit steep to me.
Any thoughts?

Re the props.. If I post a close up picture of the props could one of you tell me if they are "river" props or "go Faster" props?

I had the same and it turned out to be the shower head on the swimming deck dripping and running back down its hose and into the boat. I had 2 to 3 gallons in a day. ( amazing how much a drip can deliver) Drove me nuts trying to find the cause.

Went trolling for Pike today. Caught 3 cans of Stella that my son tossed to me but that was it.
Oh well next time.

Hummm... I never thought of that... Is that why I'm the only boat going backwards down the river? (lol)

Thanks for the tips I'll try the easy ones first and let you know.
Every thing seems to operate correctly so I'll check (again) the fuel supply and I'll change the filters.

Thanks for the advice. The boat is new to me so I have never seen it on the plane. (She is used in rivers) The hull is really clean as In washedd it myself. I've tried every which way with trim tabs and legs.... Both engines reach 4,000 rpm. I'm starting to wonder if the rings are stuffed and there ...

Hi. I've a 1992 Targa 31 with twin 150 horse Volvo Penta diesels. Clean hull, recently serviced engines which seem to run well. But... I can't get the boat to plane. Any suggestions as to what I'm doing wrong?? (All the weight in the boat was supplied by "Mr Fairline" when he built her) Re...
