Hello, All three of my AIr Condition units will not work. I have tripple checked everything. The CB are all good, boat has AC power on both lines. All other AC systems are working.

The AC units will not show anything on thermostat control units when power is selected. It appears as though they have no power to them. It has to be something in the power supply as all units are independent except for the water pump system?

Hello everyone! I am a brand new owner of a 1989 25' Carver Montego. It's a little bit old but in very good shape. My wife surprised me with it. This is my first boat and it is quite overwhelming. I have it in the marina and am hooked to ship to shore power but my cabin battery died. I can't figure out why it isn't charging. The battery was new last year and so was the charger. I think it is something simple on my part. If anyone out there has the same boat I would appreciate any help and sugges ...

We just purchased an '88 3207 aft. Wow. She is a fixer-upper. Good bones though. We are looking to affordably replace all of the cracked portlights. I have read some older posts. Any new ideas?

The original mattresses on board were rather uncomfortable and my wife was not to keen on sleeping in a bed which someone else had used for 10 years. They were also heavy (coil spring) and made bed making cumbersome. Finally got around to changing both the master and guest mattresses. Problem here is they are shaped rather strange so customization was required. Decided to go with an Ikea mattress as the quality is outstanding and the price is right. We were able to lay down on several models and ...

I am trying to find the weight rating for cradle on the flybridge. I currently have a dinghy that weighs 500 pounds and looking at a new one that is 680 pounds (total weight including fuel)
Thanks

On the 41CMY the exhaust mostly exits through the hull under the boat around mid section. I say mostly because there is an additional 2" exhaust outlet on each side at the rear of the boat above the water line which I assume are there for a no back pressure outlet. There are fibreglass deflectors added in this area to divert the exhaust towards the rear as opposed to coming up the sides and also make for a smooth flow while under way. Problem here is when the boat is picked up with a hydraulic t ...

Hey Folks,

I would like to re-bed the forward stateroom hatch. My fiberglass guy ran a moisture meter on the deck and determined that I am likely getting water intrusion via the hatch.

Can you please give me any advise and insight on the removal and rebedding process?

Below deck, above the berth, there is a screen/shade retractable (forward-aft) devise. Should this be removed before proceeding? How is that accomplished as it looks like a finished product.

Per Carver, I am going to use 3M 4000 U ...

Starboard trans clunks into gear forward and reverse. Trans is quiet when running. Thoughts?

I’m about to install a new Depth-Sounder/Fish-Finder in my 26 Santa Cruz. Currently there is an old Apelco Fish-Finder with a transom mounted transducer and an older Lowrance depth sounder with two units, bridge and lower helm.



I’d like to install my new transducer inside the hull, but am rather unsure where to locate it. I’m hoping someone with the same boat, or one with a similar hull shape has some advice.



My options are:



1/ Under forward floor panel, which is roughly 1/3 of the boat length back ...

I have a 1996 Crusader XL, 454, 350hp motor that has been out of service for a year and half. The boat had ethanol separation, and the ethanol reacted with the rubber gas line, turning it into a jello like substance. I replaced the gas line, and cleaned out as much of the fuel system as possible. There is no "hard" gas left in any of the lines, and it has all new fuel.



When I first put in the batteries, turned on the main breaker, and turned the "ignition" switch on the panel to "on," I though ...
