Post 466 AC control panel location.
- Posted by: wdbox » February 13th, 2026, 11:14 am
- Forum: AC/Heat, Plumbing & Sanitation
I have a model year 2006, 466 motor yacht with the external ac units (one over the wet bar, one under the dash) My question: where is the control panel for the under dash unit? The control panel for the unit over the wet bar is in plain site. I have looked all over the bridge and cannot find a control panel for the under dash unit. And yes the ac circuit breaker for the unit is under the dash is in the ac panel.!

I finally got the transmission coupler of on my 3297 1988 so can now replace the shaft seal.
Would anyone know were I can rent a strut pro tool to remove the cutlass bearing leaving the shaft in
I’m in Surrey Bc but boat slip in Blaine Wa
Can it be done without the tool?

I am looking at a 1995 carver 440 with 3116 cats. What to look out for? What are cruising speeds and fuel consumption?
Pricing? Four of the for sale just around lake Michigan alone. I think found 10 for sale on this side of the Mississippi including 445s.
Any information helps.

Post 1993 Carver 280 Express prop selection

- Forum: General Repairs & Maintenance
Hi. I am a long time boat owner of small runabouts and this is my first large heavier boat. The boat has a 7.4 with a Bravo 2.
During my pre-purchase water test i discovered it would only rev to 3500 rpm and about 21mph. The owner said that the boat never ran more than 21mph. He actually had a long block installed about 30 hours ago and confirmed the new engine had a WOT of only 3500 rpm just like the original one.
I found the prop was bent/damaged so hauled it out yesterday and installed a n ...

Post Volvo BP1200 thruster problem

- Forum: General Repairs & Maintenance
Last year I purchased a 2002 570 Voyager. It is equipped with a Volvo QL BP1200 24V bow thruster. Both of the switches were bad, so I was able to construct new switches for them using toggle rockers. That worked well and the thruster functioned properly last summer. The boat is on Lake Michigan in Wisconsin, so we hauled it out last October for winter storage. On the day of the haulout the thruster would not function properly. It worked well in the port direction, but would not power up at ...

Does anyone know where the screws may be to remove the convection/microwave on this model boat? I've looked behind the master toilet pulled off the panel and can see the shelf but cannot find the screws. I cannot see them putting the trim on over the screws.

Post Westerbeke gas generator

- Forum: Electrical
Hi Fellas,
I’m having some trouble with my 5kw Westerbeke gas generator. The engine itself seems fine, but when I try putting load on the generator, it dies. I’ve been trying to adjust the electronic governor, but now the speed adjustment doesn’t seem to be doing anything no matter which way I turn the screw. The generator only has 830 hours on it, but I’m thinking that I should replace the electronic governor.
Westerbeke has been awesome with advice, sent me a bunch of diagnostic tests, but noth ...

Post Excessive water in fuel
- Posted by: DownUnderOZ » February 4th, 2026, 7:41 pm
- Forum: Carver Yachts Forum - Model Discussion
Carver 38 SS - Primary fuel filter displayed algae in the sight glass. We engage a guy to conduct fuel polishing, removed 10 Litres of water from the starboard fuel tank. Started engine and run for 30 minutes, and saw signs of water in the filter sight glass.
I believe the intake incorporates a cooling chamber to retain excess fuel and return to the tank.
Right now we are trying to determine the root cause of the level of water in the fuel tank. Any assistance will be much appreciated.

Post 325 Electrical Questions

- Forum: Carver Yachts Forum - Model Discussion
Hello friends!
The two deck lights on either side of the sliding glass door are inop. They needed replacing anyway so I upgraded the fixture but there is no power. Does anyone know where the switch is to turn them on? I’ve tried every switch on the boat!
Also, at the helm, below the transmission shifts, sits a white and chrome round knob, like a dimmer switch. It doesn’t look factory to me and I have no clue what it was used for (the knob is fused and won’t rotate). I’ll dig into it this week ...
