Post Window Weather Stripping
- Posted by: Jangocat » May 29th, 2020, 8:59 pm
- Forum: General Repairs & Maintenance
Hi, I'm looking for information on the fuzzy window weather striping that's between the sliding side windows on our 1975 Carver Santa Cruz. It's mounted on a thin strip of aluminum and slips in to a channel that's pushed on to the end of the window. It closes the gap between the two windows. I've looked at Owen's Prime Line self adhesive which may work. I was going to post some pictures of what I'm looking for except I couldn't figure out how to do it. Jim

Post Windlass chain
- Posted by: toestedford » May 29th, 2020, 5:18 pm
- Forum: General Repairs & Maintenance
I have a 1989 Carver Montego 2557 express cruiser. Bought a couple of years ago and have been refurbishing. Question regarding the electric windlass. It came with 100 feet of 5/16 galvanized chain attached. It works. Have pulled it all out by hand and wound it back it by windlass with anchor attached. What I am concerned about is the weight up front when coiled in the bow. A 100 feet of 5/16 chain is a lot of weight and not sure if this boat can handle it when on plane. May force bow do ...

Hi all, I'm Edwin from the gulf coast of Texas.
I'm hoping to purchase a 1986 3227 Convertible and am curious if the entire floor at the stern comes off or just the access panels that are clearly removable.
I'm positive I will spend far too many hours in the engine bay to fight with what looks like horrible access.
Thanks in advance for any information you can provide, I hope to be posting pictures of a new to me Carver soon.

Post Fuel transfer line
- Posted by: vtcats » May 28th, 2020, 11:14 am
- Forum: General Boating Discussion
This might be a dumb question, but I’m interested in answers from anyone who knows the answer.
My Carver 460 Voyager has a fuel transfer line between the two tanks that sit near the aft of the boat.
There is no pump transfer, it’s simply gravity/pressure I assume. I also assume it’s there because the genset draws fuel on,y from the starboard tank.
So my question is, if the boat naturally lists to one side (maybe not naturally, but due to weight distribution of tender, etc), and I open the transfer ...

I have had a recent experience which leads me to this statement.
The customer support has been GREAT. They are always willing to help and always do everything possible to address any situation that I have encountered in the last couple years. But I must take issue with the documentation in the Owners manual. (for model year 2005 in the least!)
This is the second incident where the documentation does not reflect reality.
The first time happened last year when I wanted to do something about the intr ...

Post Mariner 350 a/c airflow
- Posted by: Blake » May 27th, 2020, 3:10 pm
- Forum: AC/Heat, Plumbing & Sanitation
Greetings all, hope you and yours are all well in this situation.
We have a 2002 Mariner 350 which we love!
The a/c in the cabin (above bench and near table) blows strong and cold to the point we almost need to turn a/c up or off.
However the airflow in the berth is very low and it never gets cool enough in the berth.
Has anyone figured a way to improve airflow in berth?

Post Ice Maker Outlet
- Posted by: 650Guy » May 27th, 2020, 1:02 pm
- Forum: Electrical
Hey All
So my 03 396's Ice Maker on the bridge stopped working.
Ice Maker checks good - Runs fine on another outlet
Breaker was just replaced
Still seems to have no power to the outlet.
does anyone know if there is a GFI that protects that outlet? Every other outlet on the boat seems to be operational. This one WAS working at the onset of the season, now, not so much. About to replace the outlet itself just to rule that out.
Thought this was going to be an easy one... HA, I'm so silly!

Post Low WOT rpm on Santego 3467
- Posted by: BarryK » May 26th, 2020, 11:27 pm
- Forum: Gas Engines/Transmissions
Hi all,
I'm not getting full rpm at wide open throttle, both engines. I will troubleshoot but I want to make sure that the propeller size is in the ballpark,
1990 Santego 3467
454 Crusaders
Warner transmissions with 1:1 ratio
Walter V-drives RV-36 with 2.09 ratio
propellers 20x21, 3 blade
I'm seeing about 3500 rpm port and 3800 starboard. This is on the ocean at about 70 deg. air temp, calm seas.
I've only had the boat for a few months and have been going through everything. So much to check! I think it ...
