I am a happy new owner of a 1988 Mariner 32. Still figuring things out. I am having a waste tank pump tomorrow and hope that alleviates the smell in the cabin. It does not smell like sewage however it is stronger than when I have that hatch open. Any advice or recommendations would be great.

The 56 Voyager latest version has tremendously beautiful vertical port holes at the level of the master cabin on the hull sides.
I have a crazy plan to put similar portholes on my 53 Voyager. Anyone knows who was the supplier oroginally..

Hello everyone!

First day and a lot of useful info, so thanks!

Today I finished my first panel of .040 O’Sea replacement. I heard horro stories of don’t take it apart, you will lose the shape, Your feet will turn green, etc. HOWEVER because I AM Tony. I was up for the task. This was one of the side bridge panels. I pinned it down to a /4” piec of plywood, then used a sharp razor knife to slide between canvas and vinyl to cut the stitches. Yes, there was old basting tape, so it was a bit gooey, but that was good for me. When I finished the outside, Since it ...

36 AftMY. Ready to Reupholster Dinnette and cannot get top rail cushions off. Any suggestions that don’t include full demolition.
To our best determination, there are no metal bracket hangers and overhang board seems to be nailed from below to corner shelf. Which is also screwed down and not really accessible.

Project going well. However, before I move forward, is there an inside and an outside to O'Sea .040? Or it doesn't matter?

I have a carver 450. I have 220v showing on the main panel, and everything on Line 1 works. But line 2 is dead.
I can't seem to find a breaker or fuse for line 2. Anyone have any ideas?

I got some fixed elliptical porthole windows (Bomar/Pomponette) from great Lakes Skipper. the original ones were getting tired in sealing from water. NO instructional sheet. I called Pomponette and they have none except a generic sheet of use a quality marine caulking between surfaces, single sheet. So i toss this out to you all.

There are a window pane, inner ring, outer ring and trim ring. By playing with these, I came down to this:

Install inner ring first, so it is caulked and go though the h ...

Yes. Sadly, we are moving away from the water and we are putting our 1988 Santego for sale.

She has been well maintained and the previous owner did a good job with the interior, getting rid of the cabin carpet and installing water resistant laminate on the floor.

Hi all,

I am an inventioneer by nature and started out looking at boats of this size that weren't basket cases to recondition. All of the boats here are great lakes boats and probably haven't been in the salt. Most of the boats we looked at had big problems, mostly neglect. The Carver was owned by a marine mechanic and was in decent mechanical shape and had a newly rebuilt engine with a dyno sheet. He had been in an accident and needed to be in a smaller boat. I have been working on her for 9 mon ...
