My name is Ryan, my wife and I just purchased our first cruiser, been on the water since I was a fetus though!
We are based out of the Gulfport Municipal Marina in Gulfport, FL. We live in St Petersburg.
Any other locals, don't hesitate to give a shout sometime, we'll be out and about a lot hopefully!
The boat is named North Star, black canvas and a compass rose on the transom.
Happy floating!

RaRa and Kaki are soon to be the new owners and caregivers for a 1990 32 Montego, 7.4 L gas v-drives. Her name is Mama's Dream. Our 39' 5th wheel is a Dream Catcher by Coachman. That was the deal clincher right there. I am dreaming of lots of days spent fishing or cruising Galveston Bay or the Gulf. See you out there!

Post Battery Charge Life
- Posted by: Reardon » April 10th, 2016, 9:53 am
- Forum: Electrical
Hi
My AC shore power line was not connected well and my Carver 404 batteries were dead in the morning. Charged them back up and no problems. I thought that only going one night (maybe 18 hours) with no charge didn't seem like that long for the batteries to beable to hold a charge. I don't think there was much pulling on the batteries (maybe fridge, etc) over night that would have drained them.
Battery configuration is 3 batteries - 2 shared for engines and house, the other for generator.

Hello, just di a sea trial on a 1998 355 today. Motors ran great, greats shift quickly and smoothly. The starboard trans has some chatter only in neutral, port is quiet. Engines and gears only have about 230 hours.
Does anyone have any experience with these Borg Warner gears?
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks

Post Carver 530 Voyager
- Posted by: deenbob1 » April 7th, 2016, 9:03 am
- Forum: General Boating Discussion
We are in the process of selling our home and plan on buying a boat to live on. We are looking at the 530 voyager. We like the layout and the fact of getting off/on the boat without climbing ladders. The voyager normally comes with either Volvo or Cummins engines. Doe anyone have any feedback on their experiences with these engines? I would prefer Cummins but most of the voyagers on the market have Volvo engines. Like anything else, if you take care of your equipment with preventative measu ...

- Forum: Carver Yachts Forum - Model Discussion
Hello all, I am new to the forum, so I would appreciate any help offered.
The wife and I are in the process of purchasing a 1998 355 pending survey. This boat has the merc 7.4's with only 235 hours.
We are moving from a series of express cruisers. We greatly enjoyed our Carver 2757 even with the 3.7 lx motors and have just sold our 05 crownline 29cr with 350 mags. I will miss the speed and handling of the express, but we will not miss crawling out of the aft cabin in the morning and the cramped qu ...
