Post Lost a Letter in the Word "Carver" on Port Side


Hello, all. I own a 1994 Carver 350 Aft and am having trouble finding a replacement letter. Recently, the letter "C" has fallen off, so boat now says "_ARVER". I've called Carver, Great Lakes Skipper, and several salvage yards and they do not have them. Any help would be appreciated. I do not mind purchasing the whole word "CARVER" if I have to. Thank you.
-Ken

Post Battery life without shore power.


We will be docked outside of Neyland Stadium over the coming weekend for Vol Navy. Having never done this before, what is the standard time most of you will let your boat sit without running the generator? We will not be on the boat for the entire 5 days. We will be there from Wednesday to Sunday. We have a 2005 Carver 56 Voyager.

Post Spare Battery Location


I have a 93 300 aft cabin and for the life of me I an so puzzled on where to find the spare battery location! I want to switch them out and also get them set up for solar panels but they are hiding. The manual doesn't even discuss where they may be. On my switchboard there are two spare battery switches but they are hiding. Any help locating in the vessel would be helpful!

Post Still Learning This Boat


I am still learning the idiosyncrasies of my 3007 Aft Cabin Carver. In many ways boats are like people. Each one has its own personality.

I learned how to maximize fuel economy. I even got to the point by looking at the fuel gauge just how much fuel it would take to fill the tank.



Comparisons between the two boats. My Ciera was 32 ...

Post 430 Carver Diesel fuel transfer switches


Hello
I am new to the board. I have a 1996 430 Carver cockpit with Cummins Diamond series diesels in it. The boat has 3 fuel tanks. Port Starboard and Auxillary. In the aft closet there are 4 handles for transferring fuel. Currently they are all turn to the starboard side of the boat. The only other way to turn them is pointing up. Can anyone tell what these handles do in when turn in either direction?
Thanks
