Hey everyone. Been a while since posting because everything was Hunky Dory. Until. Genny started great, 110v , beautiful. Turned on shore power 1, great. Then shore power 2 and when the ac kicked in, Back fires......So I'm going to start with replacing the plugs this weekend unless someone has had this happen before to them. I changed the plugs in 2017 when I bought the boat. Thanks for reading.

I see a number of prior discussions on planing speed, but I'm hoping to get some data from someone with this model so I can use the info as a reference when troubleshooting performance. Mine has TAMD 74P engines, but not sure if that is relevant to the knots the boat is going when it gets up on plane, although knowing the RPM which I'm assuming would be engine specific would also be interesting.

I'm still trying to determine the cause of smoking which on my last outing occurred on speeds up to ...

There is forward facing white light on the slanted fiberglass below the helm area and above the windshield on my 1992 Carver 36 aft cabin motor yacht. It has the same fixture as the transom nav light, on a short chrome pole. It isn't getting power (or maybe isn't getting ground, not sure yet/don't have that test setup).

1) is it meant to be a courtesy light for the bow when tying off lines or something?

2) where is the switch supposed to be for it, if original equipment? I don't see this light on ...

Hello all
My wife and I just purchased a 3607. We are year round liveaboards on Lake Ontario, We have spent the last ten years living on a sailboat and decided to upgrade to something a little more comfortable. Looking forward to interacting with other Carver owners as we get use to our new vessel learning all its quirks and charms.

I have an issue with the Tachometers on the bridge and lower helm. All 4 of them do not work, the synchronizer gauge on the bridge works. There isn't one at the lower helm. I would think is would be bad ground from the engines some place. The synchronizer gauge works. That right there leaves me If anyone can clue me in how they all work together. That would be a great help. Thanks

Hello, I purchased my '96 325 Aft Cabin last fall. It came with a Bruce anchor and we're having some challenges getting the anchor off and on the boat. It sets great. We have a Lewmar windless. Looking for recommendations for a self-launching solution that fits the pulpit on the 325 Aft Cabin.

This is my first real issue with the boat. When I bought it, it was surveyed. There were no reports of issues with the shower drains. I have used the master stateroom shower and it drains fine. Last wknd I used the hall shower and it did not drain. The Carver ops manual refers to an 'optional gray water tank'. I do not have a gray water tank.



Section two discusses the sump pump, and operation with a 'breaker' to enable:

This breaker controls the flow of electric ...

I have a leaking seal and want to know if I have to pull engine to remove and repair?

Good morning/afternoon/evening Carver yacht Owners. My wife Rita and I are new owners of a 1988 Carver 4207 (gas) that is up in the Detroit area. She is a vessel that has been in storage for the past 6-years as the result of the owners death and a contested probate estate that delayed transfer of the vessel to the Grandson, that we purchased her from.

Her tanks were both filled for the storage and Grandson has drained them to empty noting that there was some fine white precipitate that cam out o ...

I purchased a 2006 Voyager Pilothouse 57 last Nov. This is my first summer of use, and only had it out of the slip twice.



I have a lot of prev boating experience on 18-27', this is my first big boat. 52,500 Lbs worth. I'm in N Texas, retired engineer and do only pleasure cruising, a bit of fishing and a little skeet shooting, but I make up for my lack of effort by drinking a lot. But - not on the high seas, er - high lake?



I was so worried last winter about freezing I bought a bunch of the anti- ...
