Hi!
How do I get the screen door out of this 95 Santego 380 to rescreen it? I can almost get the boor out but once I do it doesn’t fit. Do I have to take the entire door frame off? Any help with the puzzle much appreciated!!

Hi we have a new to us 95 Santego 380 I am going to make door curtains (there are none). I am looking for some good pictures of the 3 doors with curtains just so I can get an idea of what they should look like finished.

Thank you!

My generator has always been hard to start. It would take 20-30 seconds of starter operation to start the Generator. I never held the starter button for more than 10 seconds before I’d give a 3 second pause. Once started the generator worked as advertised.

Finally yesterday after 1.5 years of ownership I decided to fix it. Simple fix!

The choke needed adjusting.

Here’s a pic of the generator. I’ve an Ohm meter connected to the choke heater wire to check voltage.

Only owned a 3807 1989 for a week. Started generator and had smoke coming out of exhaust then it shut down after less than 2 mins. I think I've sucked up weeds and it over heated. Has no "sea strainer" or sea cock to shut off water intake. Can I remove the water intake hose from the inner cooler at the generator to check for weeds? As long as I keep the hose end above the water line? Or will I sink? New to this group and I'm already in trouble. Thanks

Ok. Throwing this out there. Our dock is a challenge at best. Getting very good at it but on those windy days, nerve-racking.
People are talking about adding a stern thruster. Worth it? On our 360 we have a bow thruster already. Just wonder if that investment would be worth it and if so, what brands ? Thanks guys......

According to the paperwork with the Mariner boat it had a model DE828. But now I pulled the fridge and it appears to have been replaced.. The one I have issues with has only one compressor and has CFC free refridgerant 134 A. The label says Sawafuji Model SK-515M,50hz, Lot no 02-1-16. On a bar code label it says DE461 and OIN-0168. It short cycles on both12 volts and 110 volts. I tried disconnecting the cooling fans and nothing changed. I am not sure where the thermostat is loc ...

Hi all, so we've got a 1987 4207 with twin 7.4 Crusaders

Port fuel pump was getting worse, so decided to replace both

Ordered the Carter 97843, flange number 60502

Long story short, we ended up ordering three of these and all three are going back to the vendor

Original Carter pumps lasted 35 years...they have a brass alloy arm with a visible spring under the arm

These newer pumps have no spring and are black steel arms

Each of the arms would get pushed by the pushrod until they bent just ever so slig ...

I need to replace the shower faucet of my 1996 325 aft cabin. I removed the faucet and the width, center to center, is 3.5 inches. I cannot find a single replacement faucet anywhere. Does anyone know where I can find one?

I am open to user error, there are many 4” faucets out there, but I am measuring from the center of the stem to the center of the stem and getting 3.5”.

Thanks!

Hi, My wife Josee and I, are new Carver 396 owners, we have a lot to learn.
We are in the process of outfitting our Carver to boat the Great American Loop, of which our intentions are to start this adventure from Midland Ontario, Canada starting the 1st of August.
We are purchasing Starlink for internet service. We would love to know if any other 396 owners have installed this, and wondering where and what mount they used?

The manual says the forward and master stateroom AC units drain condensate into the grey water tank. But no mention of the salon and pilot house units which are located under the galley sink/cabinets. Do these units drain condensate directly into the bilge? When I’m onboard running AC for 24 hours, I’m getting couple gallons of water in the bilge and I can’t see where it’s coming from. No leak in fresh water system.
