Does anybody on here know what these red symbols at the top of this screen shot of my Simrad are? Have searched online and in the manual but can't find an answer.

Post Dual Zone HVAC problems


HI

I have a Carver 33e aft cabin (1992) - the master state room cooling works fine, both water pumps also are working, but the salon system isn't cooling - and thoughts/recommendations (HVAC guy wants to do complete replacement - seems ridiculous to me?

Thanks everyone!

Post 2001 Carver 570 Voyager wiring


I just purchased a 2001 Carver 570 Voyager. It has all of the original electronics, so I am upgrading everything with all new Garmin products and doing the work myself. I’m trying to figure out the best way to get wires from the console under the steering wheel in the pilot house to the overhead compartment where the screens will go. I would appreciate any advice.

Any suggestions? Thank you.

Post Engine hours not accurate on one engine


My 2000 396 aft cabin had some engine work performed last year. Apparently, the ignition key for one engine was left on by the mechanic (engine not running) so the hours listed for that engine is approximately 100 hrs. more than the other engine. What if anything can I do to correct this problem?

I anticipate questions about the hours if I ever try to sell the boat.

Thanks.

Post Just bought a 1995 Carver 370 Voyager


This is a boat that needs a lot of tender loving care. The previous owner did the hull work and replaced the engines with new ones with 5 hours on them. No leaks, so far. Wanted to join a community that may help this underqualified guy with his new project.

Post Engine Replacement


Good Day All,



Has anyone re powered a 320 Voyager ?



We have the 350 Crusader XL's with a little over 1100hrs on each. Started to burn some oil towards the end of last season and maybe this is related to a simpler issue that does not require for them to build rebuilt. We will have to look further into this. It is only the st'bd one that we are having trouble with currently, just thinking about be proactive and if we have to haul one, we might as well do both. I'm basically just the driver and leave ...

Post Mercury Alpha 1 gen2 drives around 2004 to 2009

I have a couple of questions about these drives. Are there any tells as to condition by looking at the general appearance or running the drive in gear out of the water ( cracks etc). Does having a foil on it cause any issues, I see a lot ...

Post Carver 396 solon vents


On my 2001 396 there are 3 ceiling vents on both sides of the solon ceiling. You can actually see light through one of them.
I assume they should be open to let out heat and moisture. Is my assumption correct?
