- Posted by: ataylor233 » November 4th, 2017, 10:18 pm
- Forum: Electrical
I Have a 1986 Carver 3207 and i would love to add about 2 more batteries so that i can run an inverter. My question is is there a specific battery set up for the house bank? Should i just add an additional 2 batteries to maybe battery 2 on the switch in parallel ? Should i some how try and separate the house bank and started batteries? i'm kind of lost here because I want to add 2 100 ah batteries .
i'm looking at at possibly a 1000 watt inverter which maybe over kill i may be running a 32 inch smart TV and a 19 inch in the aft cabin so the kids can watch TV while underway . over all i would like a inverter charger so i can use it for all outlets.
I also want to sometimes run the fridge on 12 volt .

Good Morning all:
I have a new to me 2001 506. The previous owner has had problems with the electric motor for the powered sunroof. Seems to be a problem with heavy load verses small motor. Anyone have any idea's.

Has anyone put a Garbage Disposal in their boat? We cook a lot and would like to be able to grind up some organic stuff to feed to the fishes. The sink looks like there is a spot that can be cut out. Any ideas?

Has anyone updated there shower head in the Carver Mariner 350? The current set up with a wand and a holder is ok, but has a tendency to flop around. I would like to keep it removable for cleaning, but would like a more stable mount.

- Forum: Introduce Yourself!
Greetings from a first-time boat owner!
I decided 7 years ago that I would someday own my own live-aboard boat, and after years of dreaming, scheming, reading and researching, looking at boats in various states, picking boaters' brains on assorted forums, narrowing down my preferences and considering all my options, I finally decided this summer that the time was right! I took a Boating Safety course through the USPS (scored 100% on the exam!!!), got a few lessons on the water, and on Friday the 13th last month, I became the new owner of a 1992 Carver 33 Aft Cabin! The "live-aboard" part isn't a reality (yet), but that's just a matter of time.
Still feeling a bit euphoric!

- Posted by: paboater76 » November 2nd, 2017, 10:15 am
- Forum: General Boating Discussion
Well as we enter the colder months in the NE, 1 of my main projects is to add a bow pulpit and windlass. I'm looking for a company that already has a template to fit my specific boat. In other words, here is my money, send me a pulpit that I can bolt on, that fits the contours and shape of the deck. This is a pic of a stock pulpit. There has to be a company out there, that has a template for this boat.
