3467 carver

Does anyone know the location of the washdown pump on a 3467

also where are the water holding tank level gages?

Yes the transom shower is hooked up to the fresh water system
And i see nothing but a washdown breaker turned it on and checked the bilge and nothing running ?
As far as the water tank there are 2 tanks connected together one has what looks like a float but i see no gages anywhere in the boat for water ?

Ours is in the same bilge as your engines etc and it does have a through hole supplying it also in the bildge. Cwms is correct in that if you have a wash down you have to a faucit with hose hook up that would go to it. You probably need to get down in your bilge again with a realy good light and look again. It is probably somewhat hidden behind one of the engines/tranys. Also it may be tee'd off the raw water intake to your heads.

Ok, you have a transom shower that is hooked to the fresh water system. If that's the case, your fresh water pump supplies the transom shower and you don't have a separate wash down pump.

And as far as your water tanks go, I have a 3807 Carver with 2 tanks and neither have guages. Are there any electrical wires attached to the float switches? If so, follow the wires and see where they go.

Just took delivery if the boat in early september and pulled for winter layup in mid september,There is only one water connection and that is shorewater, I turned on the washdown breaker and checked all thru and no noise and no other hose connection, As far as the water holding tanks when winterizing I removed the inspection access plates and vacumed out all the water dry and that is when i noticed the float on one tank will have to trace wires in the spring don't see any gages anywhere just thought that maby someone with the same boat would know the answers thanks for the help

As I said earlier, just because there is a breaker, doesn't mean it is actually hooked to anything. I'm 99% sure I have a few breakers on my panal that aren't hooked to anything either. They were put there for optional systems that the original buyer didn't get. In this case, I'm guessing a wash down system is not a transom shower, but a wash down that is on the bow to hose off the anchor.
The water pump that runs your fresh water system (when away from the dock) supplies water to the transom shower.

captbc Nice boat, cwms is right. I have some labeled breakers that are for equipment not installed. When the weather warms up a bit, get a good flashlight, a twelve pack, a pen and some papaer and spend some good one on one quality time with your boat. Take stuff apart, look under everything, and start your "to do" list. Don't be afraid to ask questions if you see something that doesn't make sense. You might also want to get a shop manual and an owners manual if you don't have one.

I have a owners manual where would I get a shop manual?

Washdows have a hose bib on deck somewhere. No hose bib, no washdown. My carver has a washdown bib without a switch because it runs off the fresh water system.
