Attention 350 Mariner Owners
One of the Carver's less that inspirational features of our model is that padded skirt around the aft of the cockpit. Something that was replaced by a SS rail in later years. Cleaning it, drying it, protecting it for another season over and over again and it still looks like crap every time we get back to the boat. The admiral and I have had enough of it. I am thinking about removing it and replacing it with something.... maybe teak. The two portions on each side of the transom door look very easy to remove but the piece on the door is held on by a couple of screw but it also seems to be firmly attached, perhaps glued.
Has anyone ever take this off before? Any insight would be great.
Thanks
Fraser

We left the marina and I could feel that coming..... Glad I got the canvas water proofing done before.... LOL. This padded combing is just looking tired and got pretty messed up over the winter.... long story. At minimum it needs to be re-done..... we shall see what happens. This Starboard product looks pretty good
I am just searching around for a supplier up here.

Re: Attention 350 Mariner Owners
After 4 years, they look tired again.
I bought Caver White vinyl spray paint two years ago and it came out fine.
I like the stainless railing best and have considered replacing them with a stainless rail.

That was our first thought. I found a couple of pics of this and it just didn't catch our eye. I thing we have decided to try the vinyl paint and if that does not pan out we will probably replace the padding with starboard anti skid marine lumber.
Cheers
