We are also finding that it has been one of the few purchases we have made that the longer we own her, the more we like her.



Prepare yourselves for the many questions I will have. This is a whole new world to me. ...

Ok has anyone unscrewed the wet bar from the deck floor so they can re-seal it and the screws? There's a subfloor under the ice maker with 3 screws on the right side holding it down if your facing the cabinet, but this panel appears to go under the left side doored cabinet.

Still awaiting for the new engine to be replaced in our 1994 Carver 390 CMY, so we got the old lettering off of the transom and placed the new on.
