Greetings,

I recently acquired a 27ft 1989 Carver Santego mid-cabin. Her former owners lost interest in maintaining her and she needs a lot of TLC. The hull is in great shape but she needs a lot of cleaning inside as she sat unattended for almost a year. Bilge areas and engine bay seem really clean so hoping she only needs minor fixes inside. Sterndrives were removed and cleaned but transom housings still need serious cleaning and lift rod replacements. If anyone has space/tank/default equipment diagrams for this model I would greatly appreciate them.

I live on the southside of the Hampton Roads area of the Chesapeake Bay so she will still be a river, ocean coast cruiser. if anyone has mechanics or electricians they recommend in this area that would be appreciated also. Looking forward to being part of the Carver cruising community.
