Post Galley stove exhaust
- Posted by: Whodges » June 22nd, 2018, 1:03 pm
- Forum: Carver Yachts Forum - Model Discussion
I have a 1995 aft cabin. 37 foot. Presently I can find no way to vent the cooking area of the galley. However, there is a grill directly over the microwave / stove area which does not seem to Output cold air from the air conditioner. Accordingly, I was wondering if this is in fact an exhaust vent that is not functioning. I can find no switch to cut it on and I have not explored inside the bulkhead to check out the possible duct work if there. I was hoping another owner might be able to let me k ...

Post Two Happy Days
- Posted by: feeez » June 21st, 2018, 10:36 pm
- Forum: Boating & Cruising Lifesyle
When the admiral and I bought our first boat 10 years ago some one told me that the two happiest days of ones boating life was the day you bought your first boat and the day to sell your last boat.
We have decided this year to leave the boating world and we have put our Carver 350 up for sale. Among other reasons one of the primary ones is the length (or short) of our season up here. This year was especially trying as we didn't get the boat in the water until nearly the end of May. It is a lot ...

Post Cruising Speed/RPM 1987 Mariner 3297
- Posted by: rybad » June 21st, 2018, 11:54 am
- Forum: Gas Engines/Transmissions
Hi guys.. I'm on my 4th year with an 87 Mariner 3297 and will be doing some longer runs this Summer than normal, so I wanted to get some feedback IF there are any late 80's Mariner owners, or at least similar hull design.
I have twin Crusader 270's with Voyager electronic ignitions (replaced old points distros). Our usual long trips have been around 70-90 miles RT. I have an issue where my port throttle does not scale the same rate as my starboard. They start even, but mid way I have to thrott ...

- Forum: Introduce Yourself!
Hi everyone..
I have a 1987 Mariner 3297, on my 4th season and my wife and I absolutely love this boat. It's difficult to beat the interior of the 32' boat for size, comfort and amenities.
I found this forum while trying to get some information, as you can imagine its hard to find current info on a 31 year old vessel! So I'm hoping there are some salty ol' skippers here that might be able to help. I'll post my questions on the other board as this is for introduction.
We moor at Elba-Mar Boat Club ...

Post Waste tank monitor

- Forum: Carver Yachts Forum - Model Discussion
Ok got some great info with my last question, thanks!
Our Mariner does not have a waste tank monitor and I want to install one.
Looking for suggestions from the experts....
Anyone have the SCAD Solo Tank Monitor? Looks perfect since external probes but looking for real world results.
Thanks in advance!

Post What Watch Do You Wear On Board

- Forum: General Boating Discussion
I am a little nuts when it comes to watches, love them.
Would like to see what you wear on the boat no matter if it is a Timex or a Rolex. i have a rather vast Timex collection also.
One of my favorites is my Blancpain Fifty Fathoms Titanium. First introduced in 1954 as a divers watch and still available today in a different edition.

My second often w ...

Post High Idle 454 Crusader XL
- Posted by: 390Express » June 20th, 2018, 3:40 pm
- Forum: Gas Engines/Transmissions
Hopefully I don’t cover every issue for these motors, and if the forum would prefer that I use one of my other threads to condense, I will. I figured the issue will be more searchable with a new title, for future reference.
1996 454 Crusader XL, high idle. It won’t idle lower than about 1200 rpm. Intake seems hot to me, but I think that’s just because I’m not used to the closed cooling system. The boat temp stays right around 160 at idle. I’ve idled it at 1,200 rpm for 20+ minutes on multipl ...
