So I was originally looking at a 1984 3270 with V6s. After the survey and sea trial I decided to pass on it. It had too many issues. I currently found another 1985 3270 with V8 350s. Had a surveyor look at it yesterday and waiting for the report. I am new to "big" boats and still learning about the whole inverter/charger between DC and AC power. This boat does not have an inverter. So am I right that AC appliances can only be used when on shore power or do you receive AC power from the alternators when underway? Second, I am planning to install an inverter/charger so I can use a small amount of AC when anchored but this boat must have a charger already for shore power? And once I install an inverter I must turn it on and off periodically so I do not drain the house batteries from AC appliances like the mini fridge?
Also, does any one have a guess what fuel consumption would be for this boat around 10-12 knots? During the survey it hit 4200 RPM at 20 knots at WOT. Is it possible to get 1NMPG with those bigger engines and still cruise around 10-12 knots?
Thanks for the help!
