The link didn't work, but here is what I did find on the Bruce Roberts web site: NEW CUSTOM CAT 35 - FIBERGLASS - TRAWLER CAT ALSO AVAILABLE IN OTHER LENGTHS - SEE BELOW. LOA : 10.83 metres 35' 6" BOA: 5.18 metres 17-0" Speed Max: 26 kn Speed Cruise: 20 kn Displ : 9,000 KG Draft: 0.550 metres Headroom in hulls: 1.9 metres Headroom in bridge-deck: 1.9 metres Fuel capacity : 400 litres Water capacity: 300 litres Motor: 2 x Yanmar or FNM Diesels 125 - 155hp. Hull Form: Chined semi-planing Hull Construction: Fiberglass, foam cored. Deck Construction: Fiberglass, foam cored" I wondered about the slightly over 105 gallons of fuel--are you adding more? The Yanmar diesels are fairly light weight engines (504 lbs)--and I don't think you will gain much by moving them further foreward. The 106 gallons of diesel in the tanks will probably weigh 450 to 500 lbs with the tanks and are easier to move around. It is nice to get weight out of the ends of boats, especially cats. Bob Austin

Hi All Another point which Bob's comment brought to mind is 400 litres (105 US galls) of fuel at 13 litres per hour per engine at 3000rpm (Yanmar 125HP) will provide a little over 15 hours and then you are empty. At a safe 20% fuel reserve you have 12 hours cruise (something under 200 nm). Fountaine-Pajot Highland 35 has double this volume at 800 litres (211 US galls) and PDQ 34 provides nearly 700 litres (185 US galls). For coast hopping this is adequate but I think I would be looking at adding weight (fuel) not just moving it. Regards Roger Bingham France
