Help if anyone have any advice!

Postby Iwantacarver » March 23rd, 2021, 1:57 pm

Thanks In advance! I just Bought a carver 35 mariner and I want to know if anyone has ever put a washer and dryer in? I just bought a mini black and decker dishwasher that you just fill the redo out and drain it in the sink through a hose.

I want a washer and dryer..

Sounds like you should have bought a 50' or bigger.
Just not a lot of space for a washer / dryer on anything less.
Also keep in mind the water and power required to operate a washer dryer. When at the slip, water isn't an issue, but you most likely only have 120v and limited spare amperage for the dryer.
120v dryers are notoriously slow to dry clothes. Better off hanging them from the bow rails.

could always use a portable washing machine and hang clothes around outside to dry, the mini dishwasher looks cool though

Maybe not 50’ but a 35 footer is just going to be awfully tight on space. And the 120 volt limitation is a big issue. Will take forever to dry a load.
