Post AC water pump location.


I have a new to me 1985 3697 Mariner. I’d like to run the AC but it doesn’t seem like the AC water pump (assuming one pump for both AC units) is moving water in either forward or aft AC. Problem is I do not know where it’s located. I’ve found the water pump for the general water. But that’s not the AC water pump. Any help would be appreciated.

Post Grinding, Scraping, Metal-on-Metal Noise?


The other day I was on a short bay cruise, and when I turned around and put it in idle forward, a grinding, scraping, metal-on-metal noise came from what seemed to be the starboard side about mid-ship. The noise would stop after a few seconds and all seemed fine. This continued thru docking, every time I put the boat in forward the noise would start and last a few seconds then stop. I don’t want to move the boat until I can figure out what it is and have a mechanic look at it. Any ideas of wh ...

Post 3297 1988 Transmission acess


How can I get access to the v drives
I can’t even reach the oil dip stick
Does this model have any panels to remove to service the transmission
Crawling behind the twin crusaders is not my best option

Post 3607 Potable water system leak


It seems that I have a leak somewhere in the potable water system services. The pressure pump runs momentarily on a regular basis without any of its services in use. Over the course of a week, when untended, over 80 gals. disappeared from the tanks ( I have a modified 105 gal potable water system) with water in a previously dry bilge. Is there any method or procedure on how to track down the leak that any one knows about?

Short of turning the breaker for the pressure pump off until a fresh ...

Post 3297 Water heater tank removal


My tank leaks an at this point it looks like splitting a riser and removing exhaust to get the 11 gallon tank out

Post Strainer bummer


Discovered my boat doesn't have engine strainers. The genny does. The ac does.

How did I find out? Access to the slips in front of my condo from the north is shoaled in. Was going very slow but grounded it in sand. Was able to back out. Marina owner was with me as a second hand if needed.

Headed back to put it one of his slips. Starboard engine started getting warm. Had water flow out the exhaust, but temp got up to about 175 after about 10 minutes of heading back up the river. Revved the eng ...

Post 1998 405


I lost my boat to Hurricane Milton. Didnt sink but too much hull damage and was totaled. I saved many things from inside before it was hauled away. What I have left are tan galley cushions that are in excellent condition, no tears or stains. I am willing to give them away to someone that can use them. I have no idea if they will fit any other model of boat. The cushions are located in Punta Gorda FL. I will be back in Punta Gorda the first 2 weeks in June if anyone wants to view. Thanks.
