Hello and thank you for this forum. I am the newest owner of a 3807 aft cabin. The boat is an 89 so it will need some love but is in overall nice shape. She thankfully came with every bit of info that Carver sent with her from new so please forgive me if I ask questions as I work through it all!
Looking forward to this!

- Forum: Introduce Yourself!
Hello,
I am helping fix up my Buddies 96 Trojan/Carver 350 Express, and I have found it difficult to find certain info.
so I have joined this forum to hopefully get educated. I have a ton of questions, but first.
Any info about the "Anchor Light" system would be greatly appreciated. specifically pics. Just not exactly where it is and how it ties into the electrical system.
Also, if there is already a thread created for my year and model, please let me know.
thanks

WHO has solar panels on their boat? I have a 400 Watt system of 4 100 watt panels. They are hooked 2 sets of 2 panels each wired in series, and then both sets are going to the charge controller in parallel. That makes it so if one set of panels goes down or shaded, one set will produce. At rest for the day, electrical usage is a Virtrifigo 9 cu ft fridge.freezer, Bouge RV electric/battery cooler/freezer, toilet pumps, lights and fans running. Solar kept batteries at 100% all day until nightfall. Then there were still the refrigeration running and lights and toilet use. After 10 hours, batteries were down to 90%, and when sun came up they were being brought back up.. RENOGY system with ROVER controller, one of the best things I ever installed. now if it could shoo away the bugs…..

Hello, I have a Carver Santego 31 with twin 350 Crusader XL motors. The port engine stalled on our way back to marina and will not start. Engine turns over fine and can hear fuel pump running.
Observations: noticed when first turning ignition key the tachometer jumps up an down and the Engine Sync gauge will jump over to port side. Spark seen from ignition coil to dist cap, not always seeing a spark from dist cap to plugs.
replaced start relay, ignition coil ,dist cap, rotor and get the same results.any thoughts, thanks

- Posted by: Bakoboat » August 9th, 2024, 6:19 am
- Forum: AC/Heat, Plumbing & Sanitation
Does anyone know location of AC trigger switch box
456 motor yacht year 2000
5 air conditioners on boat operating through 2 pumps
I found electrical box with ac wires running through it for my 2 units (bridge and aft deck), assuming these are trigger switches to activate the pump (both units on one pump)
My other 3 units use another pump. 2 of these work fine but 3rd unit (salon) turns on but doesnt activate pump , no water being discharged.
I know my pump, sea strainer etc. Are not clogged. Assuming there is a trigger switch or something failing to activate pump.
These are marine air units.
Appreciate any assistance
