    Hi all i have recently purchased a Carver 530 here in Melbourne Australia and it is equipped with 2x Gensets.
    Do i need to have 2 gensets as i was looking at removing the port side unit and crating a lazerette area for storage ... has anyone else attempted this... can the genset be removed through the engine hatch ...
    Cheers for now

    Personally I wouldn’t remove the 2nd unit. Having two gensets is such a plus for reliability.
