Post Engine room Fire Suppression - Conntected to Engine run?


Hello everyone, hope you are all well and getting out on the water.

On my 99 Carver 406 I have a FireBoy CG2-475 Halon fire suppression system with a Test button at the helm. Press the test button and it blinks red and piezo horn makes noise. Disconnect wires from the System and the Test button Illuminates and Piezo Horn makes noise. I was getting it inspected today by a local company and the guy asked me if it was wired to kill the engine power if the suppression system was activated. Does anyo ...

Post Volvo Penta QL Thruster Controller


Hello. I am new to the forum. Wanted to offer a part that seems to be in high demand. I had a problem with the Volvo Penta QL Thruster relay box and found replacements online. Got the thrusters working and had one spare that I do not need. I upgraded the thrusters to Sleipner Thruster Controllers which was quite a project in itself. I have one aftermarket controller leftover.

Post 91 36 Aft Cabin - transport - aft skirting


Hey Forum,



My 36 Aft Cabin is going on a truck tomorrow for a ride from Michigan to Florida. I prepped it according to the transporter’s instructions, and left the boat. Driver saw my pictures and recommended removing the plastic panels that wrap around the aft deck below the rail.



They seemed like they’re on there pretty good, held with some type of rivet. The boat will ride stern forward. Do those panels really need to come off? I land Chicago 6 am tomorrow and can drive up to Spring Lake by t ...

Post Electric Shift - Carver 396


I get an alarm from the electric shift throttle unit when powering up the bridge electronics. The alarm can be silenced by pressing the "select" button on the throttle mount but the LEDs for FWD, Neutral and REV continue to flash. The shift & throttles work but this is clearly not normal operation. Has anyone else experienced this?

It seems from my Google search that this may be a communication issue that can be related to the powering up sequence?

I've tried cycling the switches on the servo ...

Post Crusader 8.1 oil/trans cooler replacement


I have a 2004 396 with twin Crusader 8.1 mpi's. I think this would apply to other twin 8.1 boats as well. I'm starting the replacement of the dual tube oil coolers. The port engine has the cooler on the inboard side which makes this an annoying but possible job. The starboard engine has the cooler in the same position on the engine which means it's on the outboard side. (Thanks, Crusader) This makes the access somewhere between life-threatening and impossible. Has anyone successfully replaced th ...
