Ben, Congrats on your PDQ purchase. We must have just missed you at the Miami show as we visited with Dick and Carol w/Rhumbline shortly after your order. Rhumbline is a first class dealer and they are fine folks. I own hull #68 and we simply love this boat. In regard to your question about the davits, just get them. Why limit your options for the future. If you don't enjoy the pleasures of "dink'n" now, you may in the future. Without the davits you would affect resale in my opinion. In regard to the other posts mentioning the "silent flush" head, yes it is not silent but unless you want to manually pump your waste, get the electric unit....Push a button and it's gone... Just my personal preference. I agree that you should get the 100 hp Yanmars. As far as the Sony radio, I have had no regrets with this unit. I did bring the XM module and antenna to the factory for them to install. I love my XM. Also get a remote commander for the flybridge so you can control the sound from above. Jim S forgot to mention to get steps installed in the front lazeretts. They are deep and cavernous and will swallow up your gear. The steps make access into these caves easier. Feel free to contact me with any other PDQ issues or q's. Again congrats. Sandy Kramer PDQ Powercat 34 "Mishigas"

Sandy, Thanks for your response. I do have a couple of other questions. Do you have an opinion on the tank monitors for the holding & water tanks? Also, I have a problem with fire on a boat! Do you have the electric stove top or the propane? If the propane, have you had any potential safety related problems? Thanks again, Ben Sanford Kramer wrote: >Ben, Congrats on your PDQ purchase.
