new barchetta 192 owner
I recently purchased my first boat, a 95 Barchetta 192. I am currently on lake powell (7 days on a house boat). The wind is getting nasty and I some how have internet access (verizon card). With the wind keeping me inside I figured it would be a good idea to run a couple of problems by the community.
Vinyl - The boat has white and blue vinyl. The blue vinyl seems to be the most UV damaged and the high traffic areas (sun deck) have some good cracks. I have the original blue vinyl bimini and an after market bimini. Anyone know if they used the same vinyl for the bimini that they did for the seats? If so I want to have a upholstery shop replace the seat vinyl using the bimini top vinyl to keep the same color. Gas gauge - the gas gauge seems to jump all over. My guess is that the gauge is rusted. Any good sources for the gauge? Trim gauge - The trim gauge is not always accurate. Sometimes the gauge shows 3/4 down when it is full down. Sometimes it will not raise higher than 1/2 from the throttle control but appears to be 3/4 high when visually inspected. Sometimes the gauge is accurate. |

Ahoy co-barchetta-192 and welcome to the club!
Let's see, I think I can assist with your second and third question but I will leave the first one to our members with better knowledge on the vinyl.. Quote:
