Water pump for Universal - ~$200
Water pump for Volvo - $600++
Starter for Volvo - $600++
In other words, take $$ for Universal or Yanmar part and multiply by 2 or 3 to
get Volvo part price.
I'm assuming the 331 has a newer Volvo. If it's an older Volvo, it's an anchor.
My opinion, look at a Catalina 309. Much nicer boat.

This is not an example of the finer Beneteau boats.
