I hate to say it, but the season is wrapping up and I hate it. I am getting ready to order supplies to shrink wrap my 1999 Carver Mariner 350. My question is, What width material do I order? Has anyone done their own boat?

I looked on Dr. Shrinks website and they are saying 32' wide. I'm not sure and am asking you for verification.

ps. They are saying a 100' roll should allow for two wraps.

Thanks

Closed cooling means the engines are filled with antifreeze and therefor protected from the evils of winter assuming the antifreeze is up to spec. The only thing the raw water does is cool the antifreeze via a heat exchanger which basically replaces the radiator on a car. I also have closed cooling however different engines but it does remain the same procedure. Most simply unscrew the strainer cover and pour the pink stuff into her while the engine is started and run. I went a step further and ...

I've got my eyes on a boat in the Solomons, MD area and I'm looking for suggestions for a marine surveyor in that vacinity.

It's been a while since I've been on here, so much going on but I continue to plug away at my boat project. I am currently building a complete new dash for my Carver 2687 and the plan is to do away with all the analog gauges. The plan is to use two Raymarine 7 inch Axiom displays. Is there a company out there that makes an Interface between older analog engine outputs to the new digital electronics?

This past weekend was the last weekend of summer. Fall is upon us. I along with some friends in their boat decided to head out to a local anchorage to spend the weekend. Temperatures were in the 80's both days and no rain was in the forecast so it was a good time to head out for a couple of days onboard.

I keep my boat at the Gibraltar Boat Yard in Gibraltar Michigan. My friends were at Humbug Marina just across the canal from my marina.

I got up at 8 AM and after a shower I headed over to the Gib ...

My 1994 390 CPMY has twin 7.4 Merc Bluewater gas carbureted engines. Port has 1100 hours, Starboard has 40. Each has 160 degree thermostats. Under normal load, running at 3000 RPM's, 15 kts, both operate at 170 degrees. if I open I up to 3750, (NOT WOT)I will hit 180 -185. Both are pretty much the same temps, so they are even. What do you all operate at? Does this sound normal?

Hi all, I have a new problem popped up last week. Starboard side gear was stuck in neutral. Could not shift forward or reverse. After playing with it a bit, it started working fine. This week I tried while engine was off and could not shift. Port side is fine it clicks up, center and down without a problem. Starboard won't. At this point I am not sure it is the cable gone bad or where it is hooked up to on the engine side. Any ideas or input from anyone, next step I should do. I do not k ...

Where can i find spiral staircase for my 3807

Morning from Racine. I have a 10 kw gennie with under water exhaust. It also has above water line port aft quarter exhaust outlet. No water comes out of the above water outlet. Is this normal? No evidence of overheating and exhaust is not hot to feel.

Also have about 3 inch port list. Any thoughts on reason or fix?

Thanks.
