My water pressure pump comes on every 15 minutes for 3 to 4 seconds. I observed that the water tanks went down an inch in a 4 hour period. I have a leak in the system. But no noticeable leaks around the sinks, tub, shower and toilets. What is the best way to detect where the leak is without TEARING THE BOAT APART TO get at the joints in the plumbing fixtures ???

Hi everyone. Own a 36 carver 1990 aft cabin docked in Marina Del Rey

I recently purchased a 2001 444 CPMY. I want to put a davit system on swim platform to hold a 300 pound rib. Has anyone any ideas? Has anyone removed locker mounted on platform to make more room?

Thanks

Its getting close to launch so I figured I better get off my butt and get my outdrives done. Never worked on them before so it should be interesting. Replacing gimble bearings and u joints, bellows, shift cables and water pumps. Should b good to go after that. The previous owner had her for 10 years and did no maintenance what so ever. Well hope everyone has a safe and enjoyable boating season.

I've a failed piston on the port engine, #4 cylinder in my 2005 CMY41. The authorized V-P mechanic is telling me that in order to access and repair the engine, the bridge will need to be removed or an access hole cut into the side of the boat. Carver is telling me that if the engine is stripped to the block, then the engine can be removed thru the salon door onto the aft deck. This is not a job I trust with the hands at our marina.

Problem? The stove panel next to stove is not getting power (light not lighting up when switched to "on position"? I see there is a fuse next to light, could that be the issue? not familiar with these types of fuses.
Any Ideals?

I will need a new house bank before the end of the season. I am hoping to make the season on what I have. They are five years old. They will be tested regularly.

1984 390 CPMY (We LOVE our Carver!) What are y'all using on the stainless steel shafts and NIBRAL props as paint for growth protection?

I have been advised to use Cold Galvanizing paint, Pettit spray something or other, etc. I have also been told use antifouling copper paint, however, I believe we would only hasten corrosion problems.

Anyway, THE question is now live, so help please?
