Does anyone know who manufactured the small hull doors with a lifting mechanism to lock the door in place. Also is it true that carver went out of business?

Welcome aboard!.
Yes, Carver was taken out of business when bought out.
I can't help with you parts need. Maybe a picture would help?

I went through my parts manual for a 2002 396 and those two doors do not even show up - even as an option. Which is really weird because this parts manual has every possible option listed/depicted - at least so I thought!

So I got curious and went on a photo hunt and it appears that there were some manufactured with those doors - and some that weren't. Specifically I found pics of both a 2001 and a 2002 that depict both variations.

It obviously was an option, but the fact that it doesn't even list it in the parts manual has me baffled.
