- Forum: The Project Center
I recently purchased a 2003 366. I am wanting to have an extended swim platform installed. Boat is on a freshwater lake in the Midwest. I also want to install underwater lighting. Can anybody steer me in the right direction on the platform. So far I have been searching the Internet. I don't know if these are premade or if I will have to have one custome made. Any ideas???

The cooling fins on the AC in the main salon began to disintegrate and "spray" tiny pieces of aluminum all over the main cabin. The unit was replaced by a new Marine Air unit 2 seasons ago and the new unit is now doing the same thing. There is no evidence of sea water intrusion into the space - it is dry except for the normal water present in the collection pan for the condensation run off. Any one else have this problem? I don't wan to replace the unit again without knowing what is going on here.

- Posted by: cfmosier » September 16th, 2013, 10:03 am
- Forum: Electrical
When we turn on the battery charger for each engine, they click right back off again and we think something might not be hooked up correctly. Does anyone have a picture or drawing of how the battery connections go for a 2002 Carver 396 with diesel engines. There are five batteries and we think it is one for each engine, 2 house batteries in parallel and 1 generator battery, but purchased the boat used (and neglected), so we don't know for sure.

Hey all just sold my Meridian 408 and purchased a 2005 56 voyager. I am very active with DIY projects and found the Meridian forum to be very helpful and hoping this site will do the same especially given the systems given the systems on this boat seem over the top. First question is cleaning the AC filters. I found one filter under the stairs to the fly bridge, however it seems the only way to get the filter out is to pull off the stair. Found three strews under the stair but that did not seem to do the trick. Any advice would be great? The prior owner did not clean any of the air intake filters and going through the boat to start cleaning them up, this one has stumped me.
