2003 Carver 466. Just noticed a small, but steady and continuous stream of water exiting from underneath and 1 1/2 ft back from the front edge of the swim platform on the port side. Inside the platform is dry and completely above water. Aft salon and master cabin a/c are off and the grey water tank is empty. No visible leaks from the sink, shower, head, a/c units or washing machine. No recent rain or wash jobs. Has anyone experienced this? If so, do you know the source? Does it have a pu ...

After 28 years, it was time for carpet replacement on our 390CPMY. What started out as sea foam green, had faded to gray, and was just plain gross. I tackled this project head first, and in two weekends and a day, it is now completed. Removed old carpet, cement was all dried up, just those pesky staples that were needing removal. Used some of the old stuff as a pattern, or just measured and cut…carefully! Here are the photos along the way to completion.

I have an ‘88 Carver 3607 aft cabin with two heads. Almost immediately after a pump out, their is an odour on the dock when we pump flush the toilets. I was told their was a vent line filter that need to be changed and have looked all over the place for them. Does anyone know which hatch or area one or both are? We have an over abundance of deodorants and cleaning materials so that’s not the problem. Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

Anyone happen to upgrade to this electronic ignition? Looking at this brand and hot spark. Thanks.

Considering a 2005 Carver 33 SS (Dual 8.1l) My wife and I are wondering what the average fuel usage for an average day at the lake for a family?

(I realize that an "average" day is completely subjective and varies from family to family, but just trying to get a ballpark.)


Thank you in advance for any help!!

Hello there folks, and thanks for putting together a great site.



We are initiating a slow-motion hunt for a Carver aft-cabin, 355 or 356 or 366 (or similar) and I'm realizing it would be very helpful to have some sort of model evolution, or summary, or even history of these beautiful aft-cabin boats.



There have been a lot of evolutions and tweaks and launches over the last 40 years or so and I'm curious if anyone can point me to a summary, or compilation, or explanation of years/changes/dimensions ...

Can anyone tell me the model number or a source for this inline fuel pump? (I'll try to attach an image here too). Carver 350 Mariner. My engine started surging at all RPMs. Changed fuel filter and then had a hard time starting. When I turn key I hear the whine or the priming pump but suspected fuel starvation...Removed the hose at the engine and put it in a bottle, turned ignition key on and off about 10 times but barely any fuel getting from tank to bottle, so I assume the pump may be bad.

Hi this is Howard, I’m new to the forum. My wife and I are both longtime boaters and also enjoy sailing, I have my Bareboat sailing certifications. We are looking at a 1987 4207 as our next boat. I’m approaching retirement and looking for a comfortable, roomy motor yacht. We’re in Missouri and the 4207 would be on a very large lake here (Lake of the Ozarks). The boat appears to be in very good condition with many upgrades. We’ve looked at several 4207s and this one is by far the nicest, but the ...

Greetings,



I recently acquired a 27ft 1989 Carver Santego mid-cabin. Her former owners lost interest in maintaining her and she needs a lot of TLC. The hull is in great shape but she needs a lot of cleaning inside as she sat unattended for almost a year. Bilge areas and engine bay seem really clean so hoping she only needs minor fixes inside. Sterndrives were removed and cleaned but transom housings still need serious cleaning and lift rod replacements. If anyone has space/tank/default ...

Hi All,
Yesterday noticed an abnormal amount of gas in my starboard engine exhaust. At first, I thought I might have flooded the engine, so waited to see if it would eventually clear up. It didn't. My gut reaction is that the CARBUREATOR(??) needs to be replaced.

Important to note: Last time I took the boat out, right after we got back to the dock. I had a brain fart, and when I tried to bump the engine into gear, I mistakenly bumped the throttle into gear, which caused the engine to rev at High ...
