Hello all,
I'm actually Emmett's wife...he's the proud owner of a 79 Santa Cruz, purchased about 2 months ago. I'm the computer literate half of the family so I'm here to research and ask questions on his behalf unless or until he actually feels like he can function out here in the ether. I promise to try not to be the PIA newbie (or is it noob in this forum?) My first chore after this introduction is to hunt any and all manuals, diagrams and specs that I can find on this boat. I have absolutely nothing to offer in return, my apologies to all. Perhaps down the road I'll be a knowledgeable second mate but as of today, I'm just the researcher.

Re: Proxy owner
Welcome aboard.
Very little on the boat will be actually built by Carver other than the fiberglass and trim.
Figure out what engine you have and go to that mfg. Same with transmissions, pumps. Electronics, refrigerator, air conditioning, etc.

Re: Proxy owner
Welcome aboard!!
Throw the questions out there. Helps with pictures sometimes, so figure out how to upload them so when the time comes you can add them.
I'm sure as you get used to the boat, someone else will have a question you can answer!
