I need to check with Carver and see if they can make me another cover. I originally had a duck cotton type cover that rotted and about probably 13-15 years ago I rode by Carver industries with the cover in my trunk. The owner happened to be walking in when I pulled in the lot and he looked at...
I need a new cover for my 22 foot deckboat. It is V bottom with 18" tall sides above the deck and a small (roughly 14") console windshield. I am afraid to pull the trigger on a semi fitted boat cover because it may not fit right and these covers are pretty expensive to take a gamble on. Any...
Has anyone purchased a generic cover to fit this boat? I had a sunbrella cover that finally bit the dust after about 12 years, I am having a hard time finding something that will fit this boat. Any tips would be appreciated. Thanks
This motor runs great when you can get it started. I had it started in my yard for the first time this year a couple of weeks ago. Took a while to get it going but once it started and ran I let it run for a long time. Stopped and started it multiple times and it was perfect. Fast forward a...
I've had this boat for for 23 years, bought it in 1998 when it was 4 years old for $9750. It has an Evinrude 120hp v4. I have kept it under a sunbrella cover for all these years and it's in pretty good cosmetic condition for it's age. I haven't had it on the lake for about 5 years, have been...
I replaced my water pump housing and impeller about 2 years ago and ran the motor on the muffs and water was coming out of the telltale, not a heavy stream but water was flowing. I haven't used the boat and went to start it a few months ago. It starts and runs ok but no water is flowing out...
I've owned this boat/engine for 21 years. I replaced the water pump for the first time about 2 years ago. I hadn't started the boat since then. I decided it was time to get it running. I added fresh 93 octane no ethanol gas with Starbrite additive to a dry tank yesterday and it cranked a...
I have a Twin Troller boat that has a Minn Kota 36lb thrust motor in each hull. The motors work great out of water but one of them works intermittently in water. Any advice as to what to check? I've sprayed the connectors with contact cleaner and made sure they are securely plugged in. Can...
Should I soak or just spray carb cleaner through the carbs to rebuild? I have a slight hiccup or miss at idle. It's been doing this for years, i'm thinking rebuilding the carburetors since they have never been done would probably help this. A little background on the motor, for the last five...
Does anyone know where to get an inexpensive electric fuel transfer pump? I need to transfer old fuel from my boat and jet skis. Looking for something that won't break the bank but will transfer 20 gallons fairly quickly...Thanks
Re: 24 volt wiring
I have a 4 wire system. It was 4 wires going to a flat trailer type plug that was then plugged into a round 12/24v receptacle on the front of the boat. Here is a picture of the harness end coming off the batteries. There is no jumper on the 2 batteries. I wired the red...
if you have 2 batteries wired in series does it mean you cannot wire anything 12 volt to either of those batteries? Do all of the boats 12 items have to wired to the starting battery?. Thanks
I have had my deckboat for 14 years... it's been good but is now starting to give me a few problems. Most major problem is the bilge pump. It is an Attwood v625. Motor works and the shaft spins, but it will not pump any water. I pushed a piece of wire through the port where the water exits...
