The Carver Owner's Manual is good, but very light on schematics, diagrams and plans - although the elecrics are well documented. As a new owner, I like to get to know my toys as well as I can, and frequently find myself baffled about some of the changes that previous owners may have instituted (mostly boats, admittedly).

Here's what I'd like to know; is there a sound source for full schematic representations of all of the originally-installed machinery, equipment etc on a Carver 2827? It's all very well on a forum such as this to ask: "'ere, wot's this thing down 'ere?" for every widget you hurt your toe on, but if the information is readily available in the first place, in a format that the thickies among us can identify - a plan, or photograph - we wouldn't ask silly questions that the more experience sneer at and give condescending replies to (that hasn't happened...), and the world would think the better of us.
