I have seen some pretty scary blocking used on boats on the hard. Here is a good example of a huge one that did not hold up to high winds. Hope all injured will be OK. Even the so called pros get it wrong sometimes. https://www.edinburghlive.co.uk/news/hi ... d-26532125

Does anyone have a used extended swim platform for a carver 250 express?

Now ventilated.

Floor boards removed...fans blowing.

Issues? Did not top off the tanks. 3/4 level each tank..

1 tank Port...1 tank SB...3rd tank....not seeing.

This boat has a fuel fill port at the swim platform steps area...right next to the shore power connectors....reserve tank.

Unless it's hidden under the aft cabin bed...

Where is your reserve tank located...355 Carver.

No fuel leaks at the engines...nose says...toward the aft tank...

Appreciate your telling me where to look for the reserve tank.

Howdy all, I have a 2004 564CPMY with the Volvo D12 engines. I was looking to get spare props, but do not want to pull the boat out of the water. Does anyone know where I can get the correct prop size and pitch? according to my survey I have 2.25 shafts. Thanks for the help.

I am closing on a 1996 500 Cockpit Motoryacht at the end of this month in Charleston SC. I need to drive her back to Cortez FL and was wondering what kind of fuel consumption I can expect at both planing and hull speeds. I plan on cruising around 18 knots when I can. She has the 8.3L 6CTA 420HP Cummins diesels. I have heard 1.5MPG off plane but I don't know at what speed or RPM that would be. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I’ve got loose and saggy water damaged vinyl panels in the salon by the side windows. Does anyone have any suggestions to replace? I was thinking of just cutting out the vinyl, fill, fair and paint the area? Unless it bare fiberglass then that is too much work. I’d rather not remove the windows.

Hi everyone on the carver forum , I’m writing from Ireland ,to kindly ask if you can advise the dimensions of the water tank in the carver Monterrey 27 circa 1981 ?
Thankyou, kind regards

Interesting article in the paper today about folks that are retiring for one maybe two years at sea. Some of the cruise lines offer these at around 40K cad ( About 30K usd ) each per year.......can be more depends on cabin.
Apparently these are all inclusive......sounds surprisingly reasonable to me. Anyone ever consider these offerings?
