Hello we, my girlfriend and i, was just given a Carver 3396 Mariner 1981 model with two Volvo 155hp located in the Canary islands. It has been used by an elderly man as winter "residence" getting away from the cold in Norway.
We already have a house in the northend of the island with a hobby workshop so i am well equipped to take on this task i hope It is a big project i think, a lightning strike killed the batteries 4 years ago and due to his age (88) he did not bother replacing it so the engines have not been started since. Due to the lightning strike all the electrical need checking of course, and the toilet is out of order...
Well, the plan is to use it as he has at first, as a "cabin" down south on the island starting out with fixing the looks like polishing/paint and appliances etc. replacing all textiles and so on, and then start fixing the technical bit by bit as we go along. I hope to find inspiration here and hopefully get some help when i need advice
