I have never seen one but that doesn't mean there wasn't one. Is there something specific you are looking for?

Carl Craft is basically the same as a Gibson. Most boats do have a manuel, or did at one time. What do you need to learn about. Most of us on here can tell you most anything about either one.

The fresh water holding tank is usually located on the Starboard side, under the floor in the bilge area. I believe the kitchen cabinets are on that side, if so, under the cabinets, below the subfloor.

It depends on how much beer I drink.

A normal flush, using sea water, will add about 1/2 gallon to the waste holding tank. If your waste tank holds 50 gallons, then you have about 100 flushes before pump out is needed.

The Carlcraft and Gibson are almost identical except the transom had a 2 inch lip so it would not fit the mold. Everything is almost the same. I helped build the first twelve.
