- 1985 Mainship 34 Trawler MK III
OK bought a new to me 1985 34T MK III. has the 200hp Perkins.
No generator onboard. But the elec. panels are setup for one.
I'm guessing the genny sits behind the engine ? Where does the exhaust exit. There is a large metal thru hull on the back aft port side in the area of the lazarette. Looks to be blocked off. Did the genny sit back in there ? Long run for a genny in the engine room. Has the single 200 gallon fuel tank in there.
Many changes over the years. Found 4 water tanks. 3 hooked up to 1 fill and 1 vent. They are gone for 1 new one and 1 original one hooked up right. Need to dig the last one out of the lazarette to see the thru hull.
Any suggestions on a generator ? Size ? Mainly want it to run the water heater for showers and morning coffee. Maybe not at the same time.
