She's a '02 Carver 350 Mariner. 2 zincs on each shaft, out of picture.

Never take advice from anyone who stands to benefit financially if you accept that advice.

I clean my bottom twice a year, sometimes three. Once in the spring, once towards the summer's end and once in fall if we've had a real hot summer attracting more algae growth in my waters.

Nuts on wrong nothing to get upset about. From what I've seen about 60% of them out there are on wrong. The marina I'm at is an O/A dealer and they come in wrong to some only have the big one on them.

Got my bottom cleaned yesterday - cruising this afternoon.

Diver said I have a split in my trim tab - couple inches - so guess I gotta replace them. They're boat levelers - hope I can find the same hole pattern to screw into the transom.

Just had our 8 grandkids over for the long weekend - 4 are 2 years old or younger, and not toilet trained. Yeah, we cleaned a helluva lot of bottoms!!

Glad to here she ran good. I had our 8 month old Grandbaby over and I'm glad to say I've not cleaned that bottom yet.

Now THATS a dirty bum.

Still waiting for my new VDO temp gauges to show up. They were closed last week, so I may call and just switch to the Livorsi's. Its very disconcerting to see the temp gauge ont he STBD engine pegged ... temp gun aimed at the sedner reads 185, so its good, but it will make you nervous. So nervous, we cancelled our weekend trip ...
