Post 3007 Portlight and Forward Hatch Replacements?


Hi,



I''m looking at possibly getting a 1981 3007 Aft Cabin. Some of the plastic portlight windows are cracked / broken. Does anyone know if replacements are available and where I might get them from? I tried e-mailing Carver, but they didn't have much information on boats that old.



Same thing on the forward hatch above the V-Berth. Can the broken window part be replaced, or does it have to be replaced as a whole unit?



Great forum! Lots of useful information and nice folks!

Post Aftermarket EFI


Has anyone switched over to an aftermarket EFI setup, namely the throttle body type? There are so many options out there that I was just wondering what others have used. FiTech, Holley Sniper, and Edelbrock have the setup where the ECU is enclosed in the throttle body. F.A.S.T. has the setup where the ECU is separate but is Marine Certified. I don't really see an issue with the first three because the ECU is sealed in the TB as long as all the connectors are suitable for a marine environment. Th ...

Post 506 Swimplatform


I was using compressed air to remove water from the raw water condenser cooling system piping for the air conditioners. Noticed on the bottom of swim-platform, where water normally drains for the condensers there was a small amount of water leaking from where the swim platform attaches to hull of boat. Just below and forward of the drains. My question is. Is the swimplatform hollow? And the water discharge is into the platform then out the drain holes.?

Post Engine trouble on a 330 Mariner


Hello all,



I'm a recently new owner of a 95 330 Mariner. Let me apologize in advance for the long post, I have a lot of info I need to put out there.

My story begins like this: Purchased said boat in Tom's River New Jersey from a small dealer/broker. I think it was in his marina for about 2 years. We went up looked at the boat, had it surveyed and hauled, and decided it was a "good risk" and purchased it. It is our third boat.

After some work we(my wife and I) decided we needed to get her ...

Post Our New to Us 1995 Carver Mariner 330


Hi all,

My husband and I recently traded our 2004 Four Winns 248 Vista for a 1995 Carver Mariner 330 - looking for more room to move around when we have guests.

It needs some work. Bought it in NJ and we are at a marina in Northern Maryland. Tried to move it down and got as far as LBI when had some engine trouble and we're wintering in Beach Haven, NJ for some TLC.

Very excited about learning about our new boat and looking forward to great memories.

We'd love to chat w/ anyone who has a 330 Ma ...

Post 15% off all custom Fisher Winter Storage Covers


That's right. If I have the pattern on file for your boat or you are within Maryland to Conn and I can measure the boat, take 15% off all custom-made Fisher covers. We can do out-or-water storage covers or in-water storage covers.

Call or email and let's see what we can do, thanks.

Post 2003 Diesel 366 blowers on all the time?


My new to me 2003 366 has twin Cummins 280Hp engines. When I turn the ignition on, the blowers start & run continuosly - blowing in & sucking out.
In my previous diesel boats the blowers were activated only when re-fuelling.

Is this how the boat was delivered new? or has the PO changed the wiring for some reasons?

I note that I have a lot of black soot stains in all the carpet joins & I guess this may be why.

Post Carver Mariner 350 City Water Hookup - Winter


Question. What is the best way to winterize the City Water hookup section of hose? For the rest of the water system, the intake on the water pump was removed and antifreeze was pumped throughout the system.

The City Water section has a back flow valve so you can't pump your stored water out the fitting. It also has a pressure reducer in it.

Thoughts?

Post Want to replace microwave with electric convection oven


My 1992 Carver 33 aft cabin came with electric burners and a microwave oven underneath. I rarely (if ever) use a microwave, and would much rather have a convection oven in its place. Any suggestions?
