Post 3607 over the road height


Can anybody tell me the actual height of a 1985 3607 for the purpose of having it hauled down the road? I assume will need to lower the "roll bar" so from flybridge to bottom of the hull. :captain:

Post 91 Carver 430 named Lady Jean in Canada


Hello all,



I have a deposit on a boat that will be surveyed next week but I found out that it was previously owned in Keswick, Ontario, Canada and was named Lady Jean. The one problem I have is that there is no ownership/maintenance history on this boat (it was in marina inventory when it went through bankruptcy in 2015). I was hoping that maybe someone knows someone who might know any of the previous owners of this boat that might be able to fill in any history/maintenance history for me.



Thanks,
...

Post Bilge Blower


Hi, looking for advice on how many bilge blowers should i have on my 1995 Carver Santego 310. There is only 1 and it is not connected to any vent ducting .I am thinking there should be 1 for each engine. If only 1 is required should it vent out the port or starboard side vents.Thanks

Post New Riviera Owner!


Hi Carver-folk!

Just finalized everything (pretty much) today on a brand spanking new (hah!) Riviera 2807. Having it shipped to my front yard soon, will work on upgrading the electronics and fluids while saving thousands in storage-bucks this winter. The survey was very comforting - no moisture throughout except swim platform and bow pulpit - none! Everything in great shape, the only negatives: no upgraded electronics and needs a few maintenance items such as replace trans lubrication, keep an ey ...

Post Holding Tank / Line Odor Only when Flushing


Hi,



We have a 1997 355 AC and we've picked up an odor in salon momentarily after the forward head is flushed. It seems to get worse the more the holding tank holds. This odor goes away 5 mins or so after appearing. My bilge is clean and dry and I was wondering if the vent may be plugged? I'm having a hard time finding the vent. It's almost like it's venting in the boat.



Any advice would be appreciated!!



Thank in advance.



Br,



John :help:

Post battery / dc layout


I have a carver 2000 406 aft cabin and am trying to get a wiring diagram for the batteries. I have 4 batteries that feed the boats systems. I have a battery charger that keeps these four batteries charged when I'm hooked into shore power.
I have a schematic from the owner's manual which show's all the DC circuits but nothing on the batteries.
Any help would be highly appreciated because I need to remove some of the batteries while still living on the boat and in the water.
