Good afternoon!



I’m going to look at an 88 3227 (with mercruisers) this Thursday and need some advice on what to look at as I’m still new in the boating community. I do plan to get a survey but have been burnt on a few carvers that have wet stringer or transom issues before and getting a survey each time is becoming costly. I love the 3227s because of the layouts and fit my budget pretty nicely. Any tips on what to look for/ common issues on them before I invest in another survey is greatly appr ...

I’m selling my Charles Inverter/charger. This unit works great, but I replaced it 2 months ago with another charger/inverter specifically for my LiFePo batteries.
Here is a link for the manual: https://www.vanner.com/manuals/IQC12-2600.pdf

Also included is the remote panel as well as 75ft of Cat5 cable.

Asking $800 + freight.

NEW lower price $500+ freight (still negotiable depending upon where it’s shipping)

Anyone know where I can find a replacement for a Marine Air VR6K-H (6,000BTU) unit? May have to replace the unit if it cannot be repaired. The unit runs fine but it doesn't pump out the cold air. Hoping to get an AC guy to have a look but keeping my options open at this time.



Unit is tucked in the port aft corner of the master cabin and very difficult to access. Seems like Carver built the boat around the AC unit!! I guess they never had service in mind during their planning off placement.

Looking for used 16k btu Marine Air Systems unit or any info on where to source used equipment.

The Captain and I visited "the Condo" last weekend, and as was on our too-do list, played out all the anchor rode. It turned out to be all galvanized chain (but need to verify 5/16 BBB or G4). We did determine we only have 120' of it, and we need to mark it!



Now the question is, to achieve desired scope, we're limited to <30 feet for anchoring purposes. Rather than replacing with a single longer chain run, has anyone joined additional chain? or at this point do we just get 200" of 5/8 3-s ...

First day for the Trent to be open....I believe Swift Rapids may still be closed for maintenance .... check first would be wise.....

It is now sold........ ......

I went out on my Carver yesterday and when pulling back into my slip I lost the starboard prop. I have another set of props and I have already went under the boat to verify shaft is ok and all seam to be good minus the prop. My question is although starboard motor runs CW and port runs CCW are the nuts on my shafts the same? Both right hand thread? The reason for asking is when I pull boat out of the water I would like to replace both props and both sets of nuts so the same does not happen on t ...
