So I had the opportunity to look at the underside of my boat and do a more through inspection of the forward bilge. I have one intake valve/pump...
Just wanted to clarify; are you asking about the sea water intake pumps or the actual AC units?
What year is your boat? My 1990 has three pumps, but they are wired so all three are on even if only one AC unit is actually running
Macerator Usually a macerator is used for flushing black waste overboard not for "grinding" waste into holding tank. If you do have a macerator...
Best advice is not to cram so much stuff into the boat in the first place. As a previous blow boat owner, I have learned to live by "less is...
The best solution would be to sand blast the arch, then repaint with an marine grade epoxy paint. To save money you could rent a small sand...
3608 Aft There are a few 1990 3608's currently listed on Yachtworld and there is a fairly large span of prices from top to bottom. One thing to...
36 Aft A/C Thanks, I will do that when I launch. Would be great to find a less expense solution than re-doing the panel.
Don't have a genset so obviously not that. I will check the connections at the boat but they (outwardly) looked ok last season. One last note,...
Of course all bets may be off when gas hits $6.00 per gallon this summer. 36 to 40 ft boats are generally owned by people that work for a living;...
Thanks, I will do that at launch this spring. However, the electrical cords are fairly new but the electrical panel (breakers etc) is original....
Aft Head problem You may still have the water intake valve shut. On my 1990 AC the intake valve can only be reached by taking out the lower...
Lower Helm I have a 1990 AC with a lower helm. I boat on Lake Michigan which of course can be rather cool even in the middle of summer. My boat...
Purchased my 1990 36AC three years ago and have experienced problems with breakers tripping (on the house electrical) even without a heavy load on...
Bill, (sorry to take so long to reply) Thanks for the offer. I did receive a manual with my purchase, but the one I have contains only basic...
A/C on Carver I do have one other question for anyone out there. My 3607 has three zone air and I have tried to contact the previous owner...
Thanks for all the input! I understand the concept of GPH but, as an old "sailor" I'm just used to charting all my cruises and calculating in...
I just took delivery of a 1990 3607 (aft cabin) and don't seem to be getting even 1 mpg. To get 22 mph @ 3300 rpm I assume you are running both...
I have had alot of experience refinishing sailboat interiors and exterior teak and have had very good results using Bristol Finish. They have...
Greetings, I just took delivery on a 1990 36 aft cabin (after years of sailing 36-38 ft sailboats) so I have no idea as to what I should expect...
