Post Can't locate Transducer on Carver 3207 AFT Cabin


Hello,
My Lowrance X70 Depth finder works but the data or reading is wrong. Appears that the distance works but depth indicator doesn't. I was told that the transducer probably needs to be re-adjusted so went in cold water and tried to locate under the boat. Does anyone know where its located?

Post Princess Dual Burner Stove Top Removal


I want to remove the existing unit and replace it with an induction style unit. How is the unit secure place? Is it simply double sticky tape glued down or are there fasteners underneath. I would like to not have to pull the fridge if not required.

Post Raritan Crown Electric Head.


New (to me) Raritan Criwn electric head. I'm replacing a manual Jabsco. It will not draw water into the bowl unless I remove the check ball. The pressure from the raw water inlet feed is weak at best. The impeller is new and turns freely. Is significant water pressure necessary to disengage the check ball? I thought the impeller did all the work.

Post 1994 Carver Santego


Hello, I'm looking to purchase a 1994 Santego. I really like the boat, the room inside, steps to fly bridge and the boat is really clean inside. The only concern I have is the high hours (930). The boat has mercruiser 454's and I read an article after 1000 hours start to look to replace the engines. Is there any truth to this and does anyone have motors with high hours. Also what shoul I look for when I do the test run.

Thank You

Post I Installed My New VHF Antenna Today


Last week (Friday) I purchased a new VHF antenna for the boat to go with my new VHF radio. I was not sure how old the previous antenna was so I thought it prudent to upgrade to a new one. West Marine had a sale last week and VHF antennas were some of the items on sale.

I purchased a new Shakespeare Mariner 8900 antenna, see link below:
