Riviera bilge question

[hcarmich]

Thank you - good idea. Anyone know of a good value hot water tank with the heat exchanger option?

Thanks

Kuuma heaters are reasonably priced.

Source of the post Hi Steve: we are having the same problem on our 1986 2807. I’d love it if you would keep us informed on your progress.

Sure will Lizie. I need to explore beneath the port bunk next, but when I went down on Sunday it was too darn hot in the boat so I had a beer and thought about it, then went back home. Back at it this weekend when temps will be lower and I'll have a buddy on board to assist. Will report back!

And congrats to hcarmich for fixing his issue. It might turn out the same for me.

so I had a beer and thought about it, then went back home.

Boats tend to do that at times.

Source of the post On my Riviera, there is also small amount of water in the fdw bilge, just enough water not to have the pump to start. The fwd pump is right there under the table. I will be at my boat tonight and provide photos if needed.

I haven't check for the fwd pump but the master one (mid bilge pump) is connected directly to the battery, no switch or breaker is needed.

I was lucky to get all the original documents and technical sheets (wiring plan, etc...) with my new to me Carver Riviera 1989, let me know if I can provide you information;)

Is it possible to get these from you? Would be helpful for sure! thanks

They would need to be scanned... next I get to the boat I will see what I an do to share those diagrams;)

Maybe the 83 didn't have that fwd pump. Wish I knew if the connections are still there or not.

Hello Unc.,
I'm a brand new owner of a Riviera, unfortunately it did not come with any manuals. Would you be able to forward a copy of what you have to me? I've searched relentlessly and haven't found any info. Thanks.
