Head vent blowers on Voyager

Post by Viking-boater »

Have a 2006 46 Voyager and the starboard head exhaust blower is very noisy and needs replacement. All trim in that area is glued and no screws to be seen. Anyone’s help would be appreciated before I start with a crowbar and maybe damage areas where it is not located.

No. I guess it will be crow bar and hammer time.

I find an easy way to "cut" glue under something is to get some fine wire like mechanic wire, start on one end and get it behind the item you want to remove so that an end of the wire is sticking out of both sides, then pulling the wire down the length of the item. There are several things you can use but I always have thin stainless steel wire on me that I use for other things. Works great. High test fishing line should work too.

It would also help if you contacted Carver with your hull number and let them know what you're trying to do. The trim may be snapped into place mechanically or there may be another access point.
