Hi

The Fjord 19HC is to my information built on a Selco boat hull by Fjord around 1980´s It should be ok to run in the sea as the boat is built to Norway sea conditions. The size of the boat is LOA 5,65 m width 2,4 m Weight 1000 kg Engingine original 1980 AQ140/280 sterndrive Speed approx 30 knots.

hi lars , thank you ! so by that i take it ive not got the origional engine ? or could the boat have been suplied as a " self fit "? the reason i ask is that the boot line on my boat is steeper than pictures ive seen of the model afloat ! thus i wonder if my engine could be too heavy ?
this is the first sterndrive boat ive had , can i ask if it would be possible to "retro fit" the volvo leg ? or would the transom have been cut to suit the merc leg after removing the volvo one ?
thanks for the reply , and thanks for identifying the boat last year for me lars !

hello again , i'm looking for information about the boat again ! - is it possible to find a copy of a manual/handbook for this model boat ? and also with regard to the seating at the port side of the boat , i have three seat cushions , the middle one covers an electric sink but the long back rest ? can this attach to the seats to convert to a bed ? as ive discovered the back rests in the cabin fit together to convert it to a double berth ! cheers kev
