This is so sad, cannot believe we need to renew our boaters license every 5 years now in Canada with a fee attached. In the end, it seems like all they are looking for is address changes that might have occurred not to mention money.

I have a 1996 Carver 355 with Vacuflush. My wife texted me today with this pic. Dark liquid, smells like pee seeping out from under v-berth. Does anyone have any idea where to start looking for the leak?

Have a 1994 Carver 390 with a leak somewhere in the steering. Anyone have any experience fixing one of these? thanx, dc

Here’s my thought process…please stay with me, I promise I get to the point and subsequent questions. This past season we had a lot of life changing and demanding situations that kept us from using and even maintaining the boat. One item I did start work on at the end of the season was the Kohler 7.3e gen. After adjusting the auto choke and putting in fresh plugs, I got the crank time down under 5sec. Was closer to 30sec previously. But then I noticed it did not want to restart and it would run ...

I currently have three of these systems on my 1989 Californian (built by Carver). All are split systems. Has anyone replaced/ungraded these that would retain the split system setup or gone to the new self-contained concept? if so, is this a costly project? What units (in either case) were purchased?

Thanks in advance!!

Hello All! 32 degrees in Beautiful SW Florida this morning - YUCK! I'm restoring a 1993 Carver 300 and I am looking to replace the logo badges. Does anyone have information on sources for replacements or possibly the know the font and size to have them reproduced?

Hi Everyone, new owners of a 2001 444. On the forward salon wall (between the salon and the forward stateroom) there's a cabinet. Ours doesn't have it! Any possible resources on finding one from maybe a salvaged or other one? Not looking (at this point) at fabricating one. Pictures of our boat (without) and an example of one with the cabinet. Thanks Curt

We recently bought a 2001 406. We also have an 88’ 3807 we are prepping to sell in the spring. Both have fire suppression bottles in the engine rooms. New insurance company list having the bottle on the 406 certified as a post survey “must do”. I carried it to two local companies that said they couldn’t do it because the bottle was older than 12 years and didn’t have any previous yearly certification tags. ABYC standards say you have to have at least 2 BC, 5lb non serviceable extinguishers IF yo ...

Is anyone familiar with TACO track PVC tuck system? I replaced the hatch and now to finish up the floating ceiling. What material is best?

Hay all, glad to find this forum.

I'm looking at purchasing a Santiago 3063. I'll be looking it over soon but wanted to see if anyone had specific things I should look at. It is known that the starboard engine has some cut out issues. I think that's going to be the shift interrupt switch or just adjustments. There may be some issue with the exhaust manifolds also but I'm not sure what and there could be new manifolds that come with it.

The boat has not been used for a while and did s ...
