Hi,



The core underneath the swim platform is delaminated on nearly half of the platform. My fiber repair guy is telling me that this is cuased by water getting in and out of the platform via the flaps at the end of the platfom. He suggest sealing these to prevent water from coming in after the repair is done.



My question is: if their are flaps at the end of the platform, it mus be because it is expected, by design, that there is water in the hollow platform. If so, does anyone know where that wate ...

Our front hatch got broken due to an ice problem. We broke the glass and the latches are bent. Can anyone please help us locate another hatch? We have a 2006 Carver 38SS.
Thank you.

I'm in the middle of choosing my transducer for our vessel. We have a Garmin 1242xsv touch. My main question is all about installing a transom mount transducer. This transducer will do clear view, side view, depth and temp. Anyone here ever install a transom mount transducer on this style boat? Thanks.2004 360 Sports Sedan.

Hello, I am considering a 1998 Carver 355 Motoryacht as well as a 2002 346 Motoryacht. I had a question about hull construction. I assume the hull below the waterline is solid fiberglass and assume the decks/swim platform are fully cored. How about the side hulls on these models- cored or solid glass between the waterline and rub-rail? How about the stringers? I read elsewhere on this forum that Carver was moving to woodless stringers around this time.



Thanks in advance for the help.

I'm about to have an extensive electrical power upgrade performed on my 2012 41 CMY. New LiFePO4 house bank, Victron Inverter/Charger, Solar panels, electronic monitoring system, etc. My budget couldn't afford alternator upgrades mainly because there was an unknown mounting challenge for a higher output alternator. I have two questions: 1) has anybody found a good solution for a high output (200A) alternator from a mounting and reliability point of view? 2) Has anybody had issues with mechanical ...

So while replacing speakers in my aft deck hardtop, discovered this stuff around both speakers. Rest of the hard top appears to be hollow (from knocking on it) except for about a 3" section all the way around both speakers. Was this done at the factory or by one of the previous owners?

Hello Captains,

I've been trying to resolve a problem. 4 years ago a mechanic replaced and my starboard inboard engine on our 1996 310 express cruiser and didn't connect the water heater hoses. He came back and connected one hose to the front and the other hose to the rear of the exhaust manifold. Obviously there's no flow, so there's no heat. He's useless (being nice). Being in South Florida and having electric heat when docked it hasn't been a big problem. However, I'm working on replaci ...

Hello all,

I am about to take delivery of a 2003 Carver 444 and would like to put the vessel in Survey (NSCV Class 2C) and was wondering if anyone knew where i might be able to purchase drawings for this vessel?
