If you have carpeting you will probably need to pull it up to access bilge hatches

Is it possible you have the head with the attached tank, has a pump out hose connected to that.......I don't know just an idea as I think that was an option for some.....
FWIW.....The above is just my opinion.

no carpeting in the area tank location is on port side behind the head. just don't see any point to access the tank area. little hot down in my area right now so digging around in the bilge time is limited. I haven't seen one in there as of yet. going out again today thinking now it might could be be in a area under the stairs. not much room for access there though but worth a look just saw your last post. no its definitely not attached

Just remember, Carver is very creative in putting hatch’s in out of the way, hidden spots. Under carpet, under bed, under stairs, inside or behind cabinets...you really have to search

great call. talked to craver rep and he told me where to check. haven't made it back to slip to check it out but access is going to be to from port side of mid cabin under the mattress. would not have found it in a thousand years.
thanks again for your insight on hidden access points.

Thanks senjen. I used to have a 3807 and we found a couple of bilge hatches in some really out of the way places that took some looking for.
We now have a 356 and we have at least 3 underneath the aft cabin carpet. Maybe more but we haven't pulled the entire carpet up yet.
