Fits our 1994.. Great shape. We use the camper canvas instead. Offers?

good point on future resale. we.ve already addressed that with our salesman, who knows a bigger boat is yet again in our future as we get spare houses sold, one off insurance, etc. I am anxious to see the insurance file to see photos of the damage and a list of what was actually repaired. I am...

I forgot to add that this happened almost a year ago. The boat has maybe 10 hours on it since then. Just driving it from the marina he was at where they serviced the transmissions , and then it was brought to our marina for the cosmetic repairs and buffing/waxing where it has been for a few months.

I.m not sure which line came off but I want to say it was an engine line????? Don't hold me to it though. Our marina said they would offer around 56-57 if they were to buy it and we can get in it for around 62. It is about 20k below what they sell for around here due to the water history. I...

We are interested in a boat at our marina, a 2001 Carver, bridge boat. Heres the story. freshwater lake. Owner was out boating and high water alarm goes off. He opens the engine room hatch and a water line has popped off. He goes to turn the seacock off and the handle breaks(still broken off)...

600.00 for the aft cabin cushions.:wow: I said "go ahead" I'll bring the v berth Monday and schedule the dinette in a couple of weeks. Its only money! I went with a marine vinyl in light copper. Since the walls and ceiling are beige and the carpet is beige I thought it would look nice...

dropped off part of the interior to the local upholstery shop. i picked a nice light copper marine vinyl to replace the 1994 teal/gray/beige fabric that we all know and ....errr.... love? lol She is supposed to call tomorrow with the estimate. the material is 30.00 a yard and her labor is 50.00...

Just wanted to give a summary of our trip. About 25 boats went the 350 mile trip. The weather was amazing, all boats ran well and had no issues. We were especially pleased with ours. We avg. 1.1-1.2 MPG overall and came in under our gas budget(yay). On the way home our fill up marina ran out of...

Ours bit the dust in our 1994 300 a few months ago. I searched everywhere and called salvedge yards. no luck. We thought outside the box and offered to buy a new one for our buddys boat who didnt have the space constraints we did. Worked out great. He got a new microwave and we didnt have to cut...

A dockmate used that flexible paint that goes on trailers/rooftops. About 20.00 a Gallon at home depot. I'm fixing to do mine. It looks good and he swears by it.

I certainly would have made the assist to persons but since USCG was there and tow boats was on the way I dont think I would have put my property at risk of damage to tow. Lakegirl

we replaced our 5inch round arch lights with LED lights so if anyone has a use for the ones we took out make an offer. they have stainless rings. I can send a pic if needed. Lakegirl

we had Erwin Marine do the bottom paint. We did the mechanical stuff ourself. FINALLY found a socket to fit and we did the spark plugs this past weekend. They were last changed in 2009. They were in good shape to our surprise. We took it out and got a little more RPM but no highter top end...

yes, m.m. thats right. If the weather holds steady for the next couple of weeks I think we will have a very nice trip. Not much fall foliage but still nice enough to not have to run the genny at night. Lakegirl

We have our first big trip in our boat next month.:smt001 8 days on the water. 3 on the hook with no water/power other than the generator. What tips/advice do you have? I am looking at prefreezing our bottled water to double duty as ice. making chili ahead and freezing it for meals. We want to...
