Post No Air Con when using generator


Hello.

My new to me 95 355 Aft Cabin has air and a generator. During the survey and a couple other times I was on the boat we had AC and the generator running while out on the water. The previous owner isn't around this week so I can't ask.



Here's my issue...

I had the AC running, then went to leave the slip. I disconnected the shore power lines, went in and started the generator without changing anything on the panel. Neither AC unit powered up after that. No lights on the AC control panels at a ...

Post Interior door handle on '00 530


I have a 2000 530. One of the interior door handles lost it's "spring" action - the tension that operates the handle. I took the face plate off to see if I could repair it. Now I can not reassemble the latch. There is a small spring that puts tension on the bolt that I can't figure out how to connect properly (see photo). Anyone have advice or experience with repairing these door handles?

Post New Carver owner from Washington State


Hi all, New here, new to owning a yacht... although as I look around probably should say a boat as it's not as big as most I see :)

Although not new to boating (also have a 1990 Maxum sr2100) we just purchased a 1989 Montego 2557 today!! It's just finishing getting a fresh motor installed and should be sea worthy by Tuesday or so!

Glad I found this forum, looking forward to osmosing some wisdom!

Post 325 Carver Marine Air Passport II


Its been one of those seasons.



I purchased my 325 Carver in FEB 18. I immediately noticed upon acceptance what appeared to be an intermittent water flow problem while operating my two AC units. In the late spring I called for heat and in the summer it was strictly AC. I noticed some intermittent water flow stoppages during either operation. I have read that some units have relays working with the compressor to cycle on and off. I was never convinced my system was designed to do that. Most ot ...

Post 406 Aft Cabin Performance concerns?


My wife and I are brand new to the MY scene. We have a 1999 406 Aft Cabin with twin 7.4 Mercruiser engines. We normally just put around on our lake anyway, but we have throttled her up a time or two. However, after reading on this forum, it seems like we are not getting anywhere NEAR the kind of performance this boat should be delivering. I understand there can be a million factors that effect a boat's performance, but we seem to be far off the mark. I am hoping some other comparable size a ...

Post Onan 6.5kw Marine Genset Cooling


Hello, new to the forums and looking for some advice.



We recently purchased a 1984 Carver 3207 Aft Cabin with an Onan 6.5kw Marine Genset. The generator ran great for a couple of trips but just yesterday I went to start it and it did not appear to be circulating any water (this is a freshwater cooled system). I assume there must be a safety shutoff as the generator powered itself down after about 60 seconds.



I am thinking that I will need to replace the impeller but have read that it may have ju ...

Post replace/repair the exterior panels on a 326 Aft


Looking for some ideas on repairing the exterior panels that "wrap around" the aft deck. We had some straight line winds that snapped dock lines and our dock at the marina (floating dock) actually broke away. Luckily, only damage we sustained was to the plastic panels. We completely lost the corner/curved piece and found one of the plastic panels. Need to reattach but don't know if I can order the correct bushings to afix to the rail. Don't have a clue about replacing the corner piece. Any ...
