Alright everyone-
I need some advice.
Took the galley counters out of my 23 Montego to replace them and found the cabinets are rotten. I found where the leak came from but I am going to have to replace the cabinets. Got any ideas? I am including some pics of what they were before.

My mechanic is asking me if I want Globe Run Dry impellers in the water pumps. Has anyone used these and have an opinion? He installed some in a go fast boat three seasons ago and said they were going to change, and the old impellers looked and felt new. I know the owner he is talking about, and that guy is one of those full throttle types. I am thinking I can get multiple seasons if the impellers are what they claim they are. I did see some other users complain about them, but that was from 2011, so maybe that is old info. Thoughts? 8-)

Hello,
We just bought a 2000 406 aft and joined this forum to look for much needed answers. We’re in Fort Myers and really excited to learn about our new boat!

Hi all,

I'm going the change all of the fuel/water separator elements. I have Crusader 454s with the separators mounted low on the engines. There are no fuel shut off valves on the gas tanks or fuel lines. Do I trust the anti-siphon valves to work or would you disconnect the fuel hoses from the tanks before removing the filters? I rather not mess with the fuel lines if I don't have to.

The generator filter is mounted high up so I don't have to worry about siphoning at that point.

Thanks,
Barry

Hi all,

Whatever fastens the swim ladder seems to be missing and I am using a bungie cord to hold the ladder closed. What was the original part that is missing? What is the best fix for this?

Thanks,
Barry

Looking for a source to supply the black rubber trim that trims the front windows on my 1996. It doesn't actually seal the glass to the fiberglass but it is a snug fit regardless. I have not yet found a profile that will work. Carver couldn't help.
Thanks!

Hello, this year we plan to upgrade our boat.

Our 1980 3326 will be getting name!!
This is our second full year and her name is:
Waltzing Matilda

With the new name, Waltzing Matilda will have two new motors!!

I have a 1989 3807 that has a broken glass on the Engine Synchro Gauge. Can I have the glass replaced or do I have to purchase a new gauge? It was broken when I purchased boat.

I have a 2000 396 aft cabin. The outside of the door to the salon has a large handle to open and shut the sliding door. Unfortunately, the inside only has a small finger hole to open and close. I would like to install a stainless steel handle on the the inside of the door.

Has anyone installed a handle on the sliding door, and if so, can you provide some recommendations or dos and don'ts to guide me. I am assuming I would just drill some holes in the door for the handle but drilling holes always causes me concerns.

Any thoughts would be appreciated.

On my 366 I have 4 of these chrome fittings set into the Aluminium radar arch & hard top. They are all reacting with the Alu & it does not look like they actually do anything? I need to remove them & repair the alu / paint underneath. Obviously there was an initial purpose - but now?
