I am on my second Lincoln MKT and I love it. Have had BMW X5, Toyota 4-Runner (2), Buick Rainier, Nissan Pathfinder, and Ford Explorer. This is...
Interesting--thanks for the comments. The Xantrex inverter/charger is connected to a Heart Interlink control pad which does monitor voltage--is...
That was the issue with mine--they weren't set up to release at the same time-at least that is what I was told. I did review the threads on...
Thankfully they are all ok. The 2 house batteries were bad (after 13 months), but I replaced the starting batteries as well. Haven't load tested...
The inverter/charger is a Xantrex Freedom 25; the bow thruster battery charger is a Charles Industries C-charger. Guess I'm kind of mystified...
Actually no--in fact, he discovered that the Halon system--as installed by the manufacturer--was inadequate. I really Didn't believe him until...
Pascal--I'm considering a chilled water system for my boat as well. AC units are 16 years old and showing their age, both in terms of not cooling...
Mine didn't have a hose or equalizer pump. My boating at the time was primarily inland lakes, so boat trim was not so much of an issue.
+1 bucketlist. My 355 had fuel levers under the salon sole for each engine. Could select port, starboard, or aux for each. I used to run each...
My old '96 355 Aft Cabin had the same arrangement--3 tanks, 2 fuel gauges, 1 of which was shared by 2 tanks and controlled by a toggle switch.
Thanks for all the input. I talked to Carver, and was surprised by what they told me. There are 4-8d batteries, but only 2 of them are house...
I have the manuals, but they don't tell me where the battery is. I thought it would be separate from the house batteries--they just died (after...
Hi all! I am trying to find the battery for the bow thruster on my 2000 Carver 506. Have looked everywhere I can think of, tried unsuccessfully...
I used Patrick Dender, Accredired Marine Technologies
I have the same issue. I have a plastic strip that hooks over a knob, but it is just glued on. It fell off once then I used 3M 5200 and so far,...
Do you have any other transducers that could interfere? I have a depth sounder and forward looking sonar, and if both are on at the same time I...
May also help to set the fan to run continuously, rather than cycle on and off with the compressor--especially on hot/humid days
FWIW, I have owned a 506 for the past 4 years and (as you probably expect by now), I love it. I cruise on Lake Ontario, and find it comfotable in...
I have read plenty of posts like this on another site. Most production manufacturers are notorious for over-propping their engines to get more...
I had a 1996 Carver 355--displacement was 18,000 lbs and it had twin 454 Crusaders. It got 0.88 mpg at cruise (3,000 RPM)
