Post Wiper Blade Refill


Attached is a shot of one of the wipers from our 350 Mariner. I am not have much luck in finding replacement blades that will fit the attachment point. I have been to Canadian Tire, Carquest, and NAPA. No luck yet.

Any suggestions would be welcome.

Post New Soft goods on Bridge of Voyager


Has anyone replaced theirs? Cost? Did you make any modifications? Did you remove yourself?

Post 2000 Carver 356 horn issues


Tackling next item on list :) After couple months of ownership got around to testing the horn, no sound. Assumed if I don't hear it others wont either. So not sure bad horn or electrical issue. How can I test the power or horn. I hope I do not have to take apart the horn switch, as there is no easy access to below it. Is there a way to test from horn side, maybe check to see if power is going to it at leads on the horn?

In the process of acquiring a 1993 350 Aft Cabin. Needs some tlc, but the bones of the boat appear to be be solid. Looking forward to fixing her up to become ours. I am sure I will be looking to get advice from many of the experienced owners here at this sight, and will welcome all of the wisdom you wish to impart. :captain2:

Post Storm July 08, 2016 Georgian Bay


We were hit by this freak of nature on Friday evening while travelling from Port Severn to Frying Pan Bay. We literally went from calm sea's and zero wind to all out mayhem in a matter of minutes. The first wind blast taken on the port side knocked us to starboard to about 45 degrees. It was an all out battle to keep her turned into the wind using the throttles to steer. We were not making headway at all but being shoved off course into a heavily shoaled area. Visibility was non existent and the ...

We are new members to the Carvers OWNERS FORUM. We currently own a Meridian 341- 2007 model. We have been living on board since January of this year. We sold our house of 38 years in January and moved on board. We have our boat for sale and have been very interested in replacing our boat with either a 466 or a 506 Carver. We have looked at a few 466's but have yet to set foot on a 506. Of course we want a freshwater boat with Cummings diesel engines. Which we are finding to be somewhat rare! My ...

Post HOLODECK is HOME!


Last week, we made the final trip up to Maine and brought HOLODECK, our 1994 390 CPMY home. We bought her in December 2015, and went through a myriad of disappointments, right on down to a sea trial with a motor that was knocking after the broker said it was 100% ( I HATE brokers, those lying SOB's!) Anyway, we got a starboard engine replaced and after escrow, it cost me $5,100.00 out of pocket. We gassed up and headed for Cape Cod. Once we hit Gloucester, MA the new engine quit. After quick tri ...

Post '96 Carver AC "Entertainment Center"


I am a new member having just purchased a '96 Aft Cabin. I am recently retired and new to cruising thus this will be my "starter boat". I am now trying to bring some if the interior refinements into the 21st century, and was wondering what people have done about mounting/placing a flat screen tv and or what you've done with the entertainment center containing the vintage cassette deck player on the starboard side of the saloon.

Post Bow thruster battery


Hi all! I am trying to find the battery for the bow thruster on my 2000 Carver 506. Have looked everywhere I can think of, tried unsuccessfully to trace the power cables (lose track of them going through bulkheads and behind equipment. It does not seem to be located near the thruster as logic would dictate--the on/off switch is located on a bulkhead in the aft of the engine room. Any insights would be most appreciated!
