Post Hello from New Zealand
- Posted by: hargsnz » August 5th, 2016, 4:03 pm
- Forum: Introduce Yourself!
Just purchased a 2003 366 with twin 280HP Cummins. One owner boat with only 108 hours. In the process of shipping the boat to my home town of Auckland New Zealand.
Why a 366?
My wife & I have owned motor yachts for around 30 years but we needed a yacht now without ladders, lots of space & a bathroom each! Plus we have a 40ft marina & it will fit on this nicely after we hang a dingy off the back.
Some work to do due to the Cummins engines being under used and just sitting - but the boa ...

Post carpeted stairs have to go!!!
- Posted by: gmwalley » August 5th, 2016, 1:02 pm
- Forum: The Project Center
On my 1994 Carver 370 aft cabin, the main salon stairs as well as stairs down to galley and back to aft cabin were all carpeted. The main staircase had a cheesy plastic runner "protecting" the carpet. After a couple of near catastrophic slips, the carpet has got to go. I'm in the home stretch of the improved tread replacement. I took about an inch off the edge of the plywood stair treads and glued / screwed 1" wide bull nose teak edging. I installed it so it was ~5mm proud of the old tread. ...

Post Hull Speed

- Forum: General Boating Discussion
I have a 1981 3007 Aft Cabin powered by twin 270 Crusaders (5.7's) I have a trip coming up next week. It is just under a 40 mile run. I am contemplating trying to make the crossing at hull speed. On this boat I am not sure what speed that would be. What I am thinking of is powering up to 2000 RPM which should give me a rough speed of 9 MPH or so. Is this setting to high. Should I use a lower setting say 1500 or 1600.
If any other 1981 or 1982 3007 owners have done this give me your input as to wh ...

Post Whats your vote for the best battery charger?
- Posted by: tomschauer » August 3rd, 2016, 10:09 pm
- Forum: Electrical
I know there are some other battery charger posts, but lets start a new one. Its been a bit slow on here.
My 1998 Charles C charger is acting up. One bank charges when ever it feels like it. All connections are good. All batteries are only 4 months old.
Who has the good, the bad and the ugly on....
Charles
Promariner
Mastervolt
Zantrex
Guest
Any others
Current charger is a 40 amp three bank Charles, I guess 18 years is not a bad run.
Thanks
Tom

Post Port engine starting slow when hot
- Posted by: Good News » August 3rd, 2016, 5:59 pm
- Forum: Gas Engines/Transmissions
My 454xls always start but when hot starboard engine starts instantly with no throttle. Port engine takes some winding to start. Both engines had complete tune ups last summer and run well. I am wondering if it could be anti-syphon valve leaking back and where is it located? They have electric fuel pumps. Any ideas.

Post Has anone installed a washer/dyer in Mariner 350?
- Posted by: amanphoto » August 3rd, 2016, 9:48 am
- Forum: Carver Yachts Forum - Model Discussion
I am looking to make a Mariner 350 a live aboard boat. My question is, has anyone installed a washer dryer combo into the boat? I'm thinking the area where the tv / ladder is, would make a great location. Thoughts?

Hi All,
I'm looking to step up to a Mariner 350. My key considerations for this model number where the design. It's a cool looking boat. I also love the floor plan with everything on one level.
With that being said, I'm now to the Mariner line. Can you please give me some thing that I should be looking for in the Mariner line up and across years of production. What are the things that go bad? What are the thing that age good?
Here are some questions to start off.
1. Are they carbonated or fuel inje ...
