Post 98 model 405 hot water heater
- Posted by: Serendipity » February 16th, 2020, 9:14 pm
- Forum: AC/Heat, Plumbing & Sanitation
Captains,
It would appear my hot water heater is leaking. Pictures attached:)
It appears water is spraying from the metal relief valve and it still has the plastic drain valve as shown in the pictures to the left.
If I leave the pressure washer on, it will drain the fresh water tank. Boat had 335 hours on it 2 years ago and it has 450 on it now, so low hours.
This is the Seaward brand and probably what came with the boat.
So here are my questions?
In the forums, some people are replacing both valves ...

Post Headliner Attachment

- Forum: Carver Yachts Forum - Model Discussion
Voyager Owners. Does anyone know how the headliner is attached in fwd. VIP stateroom? Is it “mechanically” held up or glued? Extensive fiberglass repair needed on deck above and repair team worried about damaging the headliner.
Thanks, John

Post Which engine?
- Posted by: Goldgopher » February 15th, 2020, 10:44 pm
- Forum: General Repairs & Maintenance
Good evening fellow boaters, We own a 1973 Carver 2890 Mariner. From what I know and have found out from Carver, is that this model came with a 255 hp engine. It also either came with a stern drive or v drive. Ours has the v drive. My question is what engine came with this boat, Ford or Chevy? This is what Carver told me, but couldn’t give me a definite answer. Years ago, someone removed the original engine and replaced it with a 65 hp Vetus marine diesel. The boat is way under powered. Any info ...

Post Suspected EVC Problem
- Posted by: Brad Tubbs » February 15th, 2020, 2:39 pm
- Forum: Diesel Engines/Transmissions
I am having ignition issues. I have twin Volvo 2005 Penta D6's with EVC (old style, no LED display). The port engine cranks and runs normally. However, it will not shut down via ignition switch. The starboard engine will not even turn over. The EVC panel displays the "lock" light red, Transmission is definitely in neutral. There are no fault displays of any kind.
Any ideas? Thanks in advance.

Hello All, We are new to the forum. We are trying to find glazing for the rear salon doors on a 1988 3227 Convertible. I have tried caver, taylormade marine, pompanette, west marine, local boating and window shops with no luck. The doors are leaking. The glass is 3/16" the channel is 3/4" width and the current glazing is about 1/2" depth. Any thoughts and/or words of wisdom on where to locate glazing would be appreciated. thank you in advance for your help!!

Post Batteries / Battery Charger
- Posted by: denpooch » February 13th, 2020, 9:30 pm
- Forum: General Repairs & Maintenance
Hey Folks I have a question regarding batteries. I borrowed a 'snap on' tools battery tester and I have two batteries that must be replaced. Last season I replaced port starter battery and bow thruster (they are wired in series for extra 'oomph' when engaging thruster). I went with AGM cells because I had read that they have a quick recovery when discharged. I figured this made sense for the thruster. I have recently learned that we should not mix battery types. If wet cell...all wet cells. ...

Post checking and cleaning black water tank sensors

Our 2006 Carver 36 MY was equipped Tank watch 4 system for both tanks. They were not reading correctly, we we wanted to remove and troubleshoot.
This turned out to be extremely difficult as the sending units hadn't ever been removed since new (14yrs ago). Access and room to move was limted
I bought a gas tank fuel pump remover tool ($20 Amazon) to span the sender access tabs in order to un-screw. This allowed the use of a 26" torque wrench, as a 6", then then 16" ratchet did not provide adequ ...

Post Bilge power
- Posted by: azindianrider » February 9th, 2020, 3:47 pm
- Forum: Electrical
so what I thought was a simple bilge pump swap has become more interesting. I have an 89 380 and as typical the wiring was onesplive after another. so while I was working om it I thought I would get back to the original. OK so I have a black (ground I assume) and two thick brown wires (one auto and one manual) and one thin wire. (No idea) I have zero power on anything. the breaker is on and I get power to one terminal on the switch at the helm (also brown wires) The other two switches for ...
