New owner, new experience.
1. Manual says it has 2 200 gallon stansless steal tanks? Is that 100 x 2 for 200 total capacity or two two hundred tankes for a total of 400 g? How far can I travel an an easy go speed?
2. How many people fit on the boat when checked by coastguard?
3. Are there two piglet houses? How does this work?
Thanks in advance.

Re: New owner, new experience.
Your best range would be below hull speed... probably 7kts or so and you might get 1.5 mpg, so ~250 miles max leaving a little fuel in the tank. But that also depends on how clean the bottom is and how well the engines and drivetrain are being maintained.
Not sure what you're talking about with "piglet houses"?

Re: New owner, new experience.
No idea what a piglet house is either. Possibly spell check and the vessel has two helms? If that's what you are asking, you can operate the boat from either station. You don't need to switch over anything, either one works.
