View the latest post Guest Search light replacement
- Posted by: cpoint » June 10th, 2020, 9:40 pm
- Forum: General Repairs & Maintenance
Hi all. Last week I noticed moisture in the lens of my search light (I mean few ounces of water) actually. Opened up the lens and emptied, when I try to dry inside with paper towel, mirror coating came off. Light works, not very bright to begin with. Motor works in turning in any direction. I hate to throw that away, also getting new one would mean getting wiring through tight spaces, etc. So I been looking for 2 things, 1) just replacing the mirror coated piece around the bulb or 2) led bulb that I can just replace the existing light and the mirror coating around it. Any one have any ideas. I searched every where on internet I do not see any replacement parts. Also not sure how water got in, as I keep it facing down towards stern so as to keep it protected from salt water and just water in general.

- Posted by: Jphill85 » June 10th, 2020, 12:24 pm
- Forum: The Project Center
hello! I have an 83 3396 Mariner. I have some rot under the window by the galley. It appears that someone tried to repair it with foam. I want to replace the board and fix it properly. I have been told that in the 70's and 80's carver used teak in the interior. If I can get this board off without breaking it, it will be in the 12-15 foot range as it goes from the very back of the salon to the berthing area, do they even sell teak in that length anymore? if not what is a suitable replacement wood for interiors.
Thank you
Josh

My 2004 466 MY has 9 white cup holders on the bridge. The cup holders have a hole in the bottom and are attached to a hose for drainage. Anyone know where I can get replacements?
Thanks to all.

Hello,
looking for a little help,,( 1989 3807 Aft Cabin) I was underway yesterday i got about 1000 feet from the dock and when I shifted into neutral, then reverse, both motors were stayed in reverse - the levers shifted fine but but transmissions remained in reverse. even when I put the levers in neutral it stayed in reverse. dropped my hook and had to get towed in. any suggestions.... ? it weird that both transmissions did this at the same time.

- Forum: General Repairs & Maintenance
Hello Everyone,
We are just starting to get involved with our new (to us) 1998 355 Aft Cabin. It's in top shape and we love all of it!
One item came up the other day. We turned on a "spare" switch on the 12V panel and a fan was started.
The Red Dot was NOT on and the fan exhaust seemed to be coming out of the heater vents throughout the boat. It was cold air.
Any ideas what I've stumbled onto?
More crazy and ridiculous questions to come. Thanks for everyone's help.
Take Care, Greg

I need to replace the rubber gasket/ tape that is stuck to the underside of the engine hatch covers and generator, but am a pretty new boat owner. Suggestions on tape? Flat or slightly round? Manufacturers?
1999 Carver Mariner 35
Thank you! Ross

- Posted by: emunstar » June 7th, 2020, 10:25 pm
- Forum: Carver Yachts Forum - Model Discussion
Good evening all.
I’m curious to hear opinions from any 3227 owners out there regarding the handling characteristics of their boats.
How are they in chop, how far have you traveled in one. Have you ventured out for some deep sea fishing as their old brochure mentions?
Any and all thoughts on the 3227 Convertible are greatly appreciated.

- Forum: AC/Heat, Plumbing & Sanitation
Good Morning,
I have a 1997 355AC and the shower sump is not working. Checked with a volt meter and I'm not getting any power. I reset all of the breakers and they all appear to be working. Is there a switch or GFCI that the pump may be wired to? We had a bunch of kids on the boat yesterday so anything is possible..
Thanks,
Dan
