Post New 1995 Carver Santego 310 Owner


Hello everyone. My name is Joe.

I have been a boater my whole life. My mother went into labor on a ski boat while driving, and pulling my dad on skis. I bought my first runabout when I was 17 and have had a boat in some form or fashion ever since. I am now 39. I recently looked at a 1989 Carver 3067 and really liked it. Due to some mechanical issues we kept looking and ended up purchasing a 1995 Carver Santego 310. I picked it up in SC a little over a week ago, and got it put in the water on Da ...

Post Carver 404-Engine Alarm Merc 7.4 - Part 2


Hi Everyone



This is a new post regarding what I thought were engine alarms (and may still be). I recently received the boat back from the mechanic with a new "engine knock" sensor, as that is what the diagnostic computer indicated was the issue. Unfortunately, after about 15 minutes of cruising this weekend, the alarm sounded (was above 3000 rpm).



Call is in to the mechanic, but I did a little investigating behind the helm. This is what I see:

1) The alarm seems to be coming from a small black b ...

Post Need Advice on Transporting Carver 360


Just bought a 1994 Carver 360 ... with an aft cabin...great boat! I need to move it from where it is on Bainbridge island WA to Portland OR . Its 5 full days by water including 2 days and 165 NM in the Pacific Ocean ...No thanks

The plan is to transport it by semi truck and low boy trailer.

Here is the problem: This boat stands very tall and I need to deconstruct it so that it is 14' max height ...Certainly someone here has some experience doing this or has had to transport their boat by truck. ...

Post 87 3297 runs slow is this normal?


My 3297 Mariner at 3,000 RPM only does 8-10 knots max. I can get up to 12 knots at 3500 rpm. I have seen other forums of people doing up to 17 knots and faster at 2700 rpm. It has the dual 350 engines and V-Drive. Everything sounds ok when running. Any assistance would be appreciated.

Post loud unidentified noise


Hi All,

My 406 with Volvo Penta engines, has suddenly started making terribly loud noises when in gear. It may be in both sides, but is minimal on the port. Increases of course at higher RPMs. The sound has two components: a grinding abrasive sound and a high pitched squeal. Can be heard on the bridge, but in the aft stateroom is incredible. So, took up the floorplate over the rear strut/cutlass bearing and sure enough BAM! mystery solved. Not so fast! Pulled the boat and there is absolutel ...
