• Trawler Forum Classified Posting Guidelines
    • We expect ads placed to be related to the topic of this forum.
    • Ads that are inactive for 180 days or longer may be moved to the Classified Archive and locked. Ads may be relisted if the item is still current. Alternatively, owners may contact a Moderator to reinstate an archived ad.
    • The Classified section is for advertising, members are asked to refrain from posting discussions to a Classified Ad. Please start a discussion thread or PM the owner for discussions.
    • Do not hijack another member's ad by posting unsolicited commentary. Example: if a member has posted an ad offering an anchor for sale, don't add a post to his thread stating that you have an anchor you'd like to get rid of also. Posts deemed as unsolicited commentary may be removed.
    • For your own security, do NOT include your e-mail or phone number in your ad. Instead request that interested parties contact you via PM (private message) to provide owners contact info.
    • Brokers, Dealers, or those with a commercial interest in a sale are prohibited from posting in Classifieds.
    • Only Trawler Forum Commercial Members may post ads in the Commercial section. You must be a designated Commercial Member to start threads in this section of the forum. (Contact a moderator if you have questions about this)
    • Don't post links to commercial sites where you are also offering the boat, such as eBay, Craigslist or Yachtworld, etc. unless it contains a more in-depth description, additional information or pictures.
    • Place only one ad per item (you may repost only when your ad has expired and been removed).
    For Sale ads MUST include:
    • Asking price
    • Location
    • A Basic Description
    • Clear statement whether you are the owner or non-owner (posting for friend, relative, or acquaintance)
    • Don't forget to select: FOR SALE, WANTED or FREE in the Title block.
    All ads should also include ALL the following:
    • Pertinent maintenance and condition information
    • Exterior picture or pictures
    • Interior picture or pictures (boats)
    For maximum impact & exposure, it is suggested the Ad Title include: Year, Manufacturer, Model, Length, Price, and Location or at the very top of the ad body. When your item has sold or the ad is no longer relevant: Please post a Reply to the ad that the item is SOLD or click "Report Post" on post 1 of the thread to ask a moderator to archive the ad. Ads may be moved or removed by our staff at any time for any reason. All ads must comply with site rules. Thanks for your cooperation.
  • Avoid Scams.

    Our classifieds are free and anyone registered here is welcome to post an ad.
    Be aware that there are unscrupulous folks out there. Avoid any interaction that seems odd to you or �feels� wrong. Inquiries from unknown buyers, buyers �agents� and other non-traditional approaches should be treated with extreme caution.

    Beware of unsolicited contacts offering to put you in touch with someone else who is buying or selling via e-mail or text.

    Do not post your e-mail address or phone number in a classifieds ad.

    Hints that you may be dealing with a Scammer:
    • Seller or Buyer approaches you via a direct email or PM and then steers you to an off-site communication method (text or email).
    • No posts or very few forum posts.
    • Recent forum membership
    • Insists on conducting negotiations via email or text rather than PM
    • Requires payment via Bank Transfer, BitCoin/CryptoCurrency, WesternUnion or other unsecured method.
    • Buyer or Seller suggests Paypal "Friends and Family" payment. Paypal is a good way to arrange payment but an invoice for goods and services should be used rather than "Friends and Family". "Friends and Family" avoids fees BUT there is no recourse if the transaction runs aground. Friends and Family is for gifts only. There is no protection for Friends and Family transactions, so never ever use it to buy something.
    • Declines to allow viewing the item before proceeding with the transaction.

1989 Carver Californian 48' ACMY
I need for the port side wing door an original door lock with key . It has AGE locks and I do not have a key for the Port side. I can lock it from the inside but it would be nice to have a key. Also needed for the same boat is the lights for each side of the make-up mirror in the Aft stateroom. If anyone knows of a source for old Californian parts, I would appreciate it. Thanks
 
I wanted to revive this post. Does anyone know where a Carver Californian has went to die. I would like to see if I could buy a couple of items. Copied from original post.

Are you sure you can't find a replacement in another brand, like Perko? Why does it have to be that specific lock? Why not simply change the entire lockset?
 
I have looked and have not been able to find anything similar to the original locks. They are a cylinder type lock. Everything else I have locked at will require modifying the door and jam. I really didn't want to do that. I can lock one of them from the inside and the other with a key now. They are not keyed the same. I was just trying to find an old one like it if it had a key. The lights I am looking for have to be slim, like 3" wide by 18" long. They mount between a vanity mirror and cabinet door in the aft stateroom. I thought surely there has to be a place these old boats got o die.
 
Take the lock to a locksmith, give them the key and they can make your lock fit your existing key. It's what they do.
 
I am just thinking out loud here, but maybe join the NW Navigators Facebook page and ask them. Since the Carver Californians and Navigators share a bloodline, I’d bet someone over there might know.
 
Thanks to both of you for the last responses. I originally tried the locksmith idea. There are not many true locksmiths in my area. I did take the old lock that I don't have a key to and the old lock that I do have a key to and he took them apart and was going to try to re-key them alike. Unfortunately, because of the "AGE" brand and the age of the lock, he was not able to re-key them. This "AGE" brand is a cylinder type lock that was made in an Asian country. I searched the internet and I actually bought a new old stock that was the right lock and had a key. That is the one I have with a key. It was still in an old box. It is an "AGE", no. 2846, cylinder dead bolt. I have a picture of the box, it has Japanese or Chinese writing on the box as well as the description above. If you know of a reputable locksmith who would be able to re-key them I would appreciate there contact info. I have tried but most of the so-called locksmiths in my are are only able to legally break into your car if you locked your keys in it. I tried to upload the picture of the box. Thanks, Charlie
