1986 210

[mxzx800ho05]

Hi guys I just bought a 1986 21ft searay 210 Seville cuddy cabin with a e-z load trailer. The po told me that it does take on some water and that he has taken it to a couple of marina's and they cant find the problem. I took it out for the first time to see and come to find out it did take in a lot of water. The bilge keeps up with it but I have to turn it on every 10mins or so. Is there someplace I should start looking first? The bellows do look a little dry rotted but doesn't seem to have any holes. thanks

Did you ck for cracked exhaust manifolds?

I had a Carver 30 aft cabin and had water pissing out the back of engine, hard to see until a friendly dock neighbor used my wifes make up mirror to reach back under the salon floor to spot the leak.

I purchased a consignment boat thru the dealer, asked the dealer to ck it out 1st, I realized I own the bill- Just fix the darn problem! :smt100

After 2 times back to the dealer, the last mechanic said Carver may have screwed up and to raise the aft cabin floor! Are you kidding me????? :smt021

It was a bathtub back there after 30 min of taking the boat out for a ride.

I will be checking everything that was said. I also have another question. The boat seems to be getting hot so I'm looking at replacing the thermostat and the water pump impeller can any of you help me with the part #'s. The Engine serial # is A658182 Trans serial # ob476038 and drive ob464069 I believe if I looked it up correctly that the engine is the 350 mag alpha 1. Any help will be amazing
