I only have a couple posts here so far but I've been working on our 2827 non stop since we bought it in early April.

All new exhaust/cooling on the port side (starboard is in process now)
New distributors
New fuel pump
New ignition wiring
New Norcold
New outlet added to forward closet for TV in stateroom
New Raptor (like SeaDek) flooring going on the bridge TODAY! (excited)

But my most enjoyable project has been working the wood. It was very dull and grey at first. It really helps give the deck a much ...

Can anyone tell me how to remove this panel on the port side? it's damaged pretty well and I would like to replace it with a nice sheet of teak.

Carver 36 twin 350 gas engines
Keeps overheating wheneve the boat is sitting ag the dock only


When we drive it it doesn’t overheat

Any ideas???

Hi! We have a broken starboard portlight window on our 2000 350 Mariner that we need replaced. The parts manual shows what is in the "portlight" image attached and it's obviously #11. Then the part number page ("parts" attached image) is missing #11!!! Seriously! I'm sure someone at Carver is laughing at me right now.



Anyone know what the real part number is for that and have an idea as to where I can get one? I'm sure someone at Carver is laughing at me right now.

We took the muffler off to hoist the engine and change the transmission



Now everything is put back together and I have (what I think) is excessive fumes and noise coming from the port engine.



I open the hatch and everything is perfect, no fumes, smoke or anything out of order



Everything comes out of the back exhaust just above water level



Note the Starboard side is much quieter and no fumes at all



I have no idea of what it should be like as I just bought the boat and can only compare it to the starbo ...

Hello everyone I'm wondering if anyone has specific experience with a 410 Sport Sedan with 8.1's to provide some baseline data for me to compare to. I've seen numbers suggesting 17-18 knots for best cruise and 26 knots WOT. With fuel burn around 1.5 gallons per mile. I'm finding 18 knots feels solid and smooth but I'm only getting. .39 Nautical Miles Per Gallon which seems excessive even for this behemoth and half what it was speed at.... Engines run great. I have recently installed Fox eng ...

We have a 2005 Carver 56 Voyager, and we have to remove the AC vents on the steps from the Pilot House to the bridge. In doing so, the small white clips that hold the vent grid in broke. Anyone know where to get replacements?

Hello - my brother-in-law's dad just bought what he described as a '96 Santego 38. He is very experienced in sailing vessels (over 20 years) and decided to buy a more comfortable boat to go to Catalina (still needs to find a slip - right now in Long Beach). I'm a complete noob but in the planning/dreaming stages of getting a Nordhavn 55. So I've been consuming large amounts of information over the past several years on all things boating.

I'll be helping him as much as I can since he is a great g ...

New Carver owner.

Purchased a beautiful 1989 Carver 2357 Montego and have a question.

Where do you purchase replacement gauges and gauge backing mounting pieces, the inscriptions have worn away. Thanks

Can’t find lense replacement for the mast light/anchor light. Does one know the brand or where to get the two plastic lenses.
