Hey Guys, I stripped out the gears on my QL BP1200 bow thruster. Tried to order new parts but they are obsolete and no longer available. After a lot of searching I found a new company called thrusterparts.com that is selling gears for Volvo Penta QL BP series thrusters. I ordered a set, had them installed and they work perfectly!

Hello, I have an 89 Carver 38 Santego with a 4 cylinder Kohler generator which has a magneto.

I disconnected the white kill wire to the magneto, but engine won’t start. I assume that means I’m dealing with an ...

Ok. I installed a new Promariner 2000 PS inverter charger last year. Well, I did some of the work, and the “main electrical guy” on our lake did the rest. In order for the alternators to charge the battery while underway, I replaced the two alternator three battery bank diode charger with ProIso 2 alt 4 battery version. The alternators put out 100 amps a piece. Promariner said the circuit must be able to handle 200 amps, the total of the two alternators.

I was having trouble keeping the inverter ...

Where in the world can I find aft cabin windows or seals? The bottom seals are rotting so bad, I’ve got MOSS growing in the channels and water intrusion from there may ruin my sidewalls! Any help is greatly appreciated!

We have a 1989 32 foot Aft Cabin. I would like replace the leather sleeper sofa. I have the size but I wanted to see if anyone had hints, suggestions or advice how to get it on the boat.
