Hi Everyone,



Last year I bought a 1989 32 Montego.

Everything worked great. We put the boat back in the water about 3 weeks ago and everything seemed to be ok... until I tried to turn the heat on.



Before flipping the A/C/heat breaker "on" I had the main breaket on panel 2 "on" and the volt gauge was reading 110 volts. As soon as I flipped the A/C/heat breaker panel 2 went dead and I can't get it back. I run a Y splitter to the shore power inlets at the boat since my dock only has one 30 amp plug, ...

Hi all,

While cleaning out my center bilge pump on my 3467 the hose cracked in several places (30+ year old plastic). The hose seems to be attached to a stringer by straps in an unaccessible location, under plywood beneath the couch. I tried passing a snake but could not get it to go all the way through. I looked with an inspection camera and could only get limited visualization. My friend said I should cut an inspection hole in the plywood, large enough to get a hand inside.

The hose to be replac ...

Looking to buy a 1998 or newer 355 or 356 Carver Aft Cabin within the next 6 months to a year. Will be selling/trading our 1994 Carver 310 Santego at that time.

I'm new to this site. Having a hard time finding the model Carver I want in the state where I live (WA State). Thought I'd try an owner's group and network a little to see if I can find one closer to home.

I am wondering if there are any members here that are also members of the Great Lakes Cruising Club. I recently resigned from the club I belonged to and are looking at my options for joining another boating club or organization.

GLCC hits many of the buttons that work for me. Just wondering if any here also belong to GLCC. Would like to hear the positives and/or negatives from that membership.

Has anyone ever added a second set of engine controls on the stern of a Volvo 74 TMAD powered boat? I looked in the Parts manual and don't see what Im looking for. Ill call the local Volvo dealer but wondering if anyone has ever gone down that road. On the 506 it would really come in handy to be able to single hand since my wife is not comfortable handling the lines on the bigger boat.
Thanks
Carpe diem

Looking to get this replaced or upgraded any thoughts or ideas?
Kidde Mariner Fyre Watch Model 170 Halon 1211
It is about as big as regular fire extinguisher mounted in a regular mount on bulkhead.
It reads zero pressure and needs to be replaced or recharged.
Thanks for any help.

Hello! This may not be the right forum for this particular question, but I've got a 1985 3227 with the Hynautic Reservalve. I purchased a used Simrad 2403VRF autopilot system that utilizes the RPU80 reversible pump. There are 5 connections on the reservalve itself...two in from the helm(s), two out to the cylinder and the one for the supply (or return) line. The manual isn't clear on which lines get attached (and where) to the 'new' RPU80, which has three connections. I'm thinking I'll have to i ...

I recently was reading comments as to Carver owners using 15-40 Shell Rotella engine oil. Several said they liked it. So I bought the oil and put it in one of my gasoline engines. Now I see it says diesel on the container. Duh! So I wonder if the forum I read was all from diesel owners! Help!
