I have identified a leak coming from my port exhaust. The leak is a small stream of lake water continously flowing about 1/8" wide. It was identified last season and i requested repairs that are happening now. The question is this. That water never made it to my bilge pump. This model has no aft pump, nearest is engine room and it's dry. At cabin smells like someone died. I pulled all the carpet, plywood floor is dry. Where might this water be hiding. How do i drain it, best way to deal ...

OK everybody I’m looking for some ideas and experience. It’s about time for me to replace the batteries on this boat. I’m seeing a lot of talk about lithium batteries for house and AGM for cranking. Does anybody have any experience with Marine lithium batteries? What would you recommend it does have a Knoco charger that is capable of charging lithium, but I’m not sure if there are any other electronic components that would need to be upgraded.



As always thanks so much for your wisdom

This is the one!

1st time boat owner, went with the 86' Carver 3607. I'm excited to get some of the smaller projects done.
I'm starting with the AC systems, which are currently non-functioning. Does anyone know where to get original schematics?

We purchased our boat in Dec of 2023. Back in April we had been boasting for about 3hrs with a mixture of cruising and idling. When we went to get up on plain we couldn’t get past 10 knots. We ended up getting into a harbour for the night. We checked fuel, transmission and engine fluids. All good. Had a diver check underwater and all good. Next day went to head home and the boat got up on plain with no issues for the next 3 days.



Fast forward to yesterday and we were boating from Victoria to Seat ...

1994 Carver 390 CPMY. I am mounting a Fireboy automatic fire extinguisher. It must be mounted upright, not horizontal. Anyway the only place I can mount it is against the port stringer in front of the port engine. I drilled a hole in the top of the stringer and used a scope to check what was inside and it was clean and clear. SO…….I drilled a hole about 4” from the bottom, and after I went through the fiberglass, (1/2” or so thick) The drill stopped and I saw metal/steel shavings and I stopped. ...

hi, the title really says it all, how does a carver 27 santego handle at low speeds? (in case there are hull variations for this model, its advertised as a full displacement hull by the broker)
we intend on using it on the thames, where the speed limit is 8 kts
we just need to know if its going to drift across the top of the river like the fjord 24 we had previously, or whether it will hold a straight line
any help would be greatly appreciated

Hello Everyone,



New to the forum and Carver...



I have been given the project of upgrading almost everything on a 2007 56 Voyager. So far I have upgraded all the navigation (Garmin), Radar, auto pilot, TVs (5), sound bars, speakers, woofers and AV sound processor, Main radio and remote radio, Starlink, NEMA2000 network and Garmin marine network, onboard WIFI and cordless land line phones.



That being said, now comes the hard part that I cannot find any info on. Finding the OEM dimmer

Maretron web site calls out PCs, iPads, and Tablets - but does not mention Raspberry Pi. I have been on the support forums and knowledge base with no success.

So, anyone with any first hand knowledge? Anyone running the Maretron N2KView software on a Raspberry Pi?
