Post Hi. Another Newbie


Hi, I'm a newbie to this forum. I joined because I am interested in buying a 1992 Carver 634 Santego. From the research online and reading about surveys from a guy named Pascoe I am concerned about the reputable thin cored fragile hulls of Carvers. I figured who better to ask than owners of these boats. Are my concerns founded and are Carvers that bad? What about this particular model? I have owned a Bayliner 2655 and currently have a Monterey 286 SEL but would like to go a bit bigger. I had no ...

Post Front Windshield mesh cover from a 42SS


I had the windows tinted when we were updating the boat, and have a pretty good shape front windshield mesh cover from our 2007 42SS that is just sitting in the basement. No idea what its worth or if anyone wants it. No tears, no particular sun damage, but it is used. Any interest at $100 plus shipping? I have some pics but they are large scale so I'll need an email to forward. Roughly 49" top to bottom at what would be the windshield center. Roughly 176 inches point to point laid out on t ...

Post Newbie here!


Hello board! Been a proud owner of a 350 mariner for 4 years now and love being a Carver owner! hoping that I can be as helpful here as I have seen other be. I'm a audio / video specialist by trade and boater by love. We call Old Hickory Lake our home which is part of the Cumberland River in Nashville,TN. I'm about to replace the starboard fuel tank which won't be fun and I will be doing a step by step photo session of the process that I will be able to share.

Hello to all the Carver owners.
Although I presently do not own a Carver I have owned many boats over the years none of them Carvers.
Presently I am looking at a 1990's vintage 42-44 ft. Carver motor yacht for my last hurrah, the great loop.
I might as well be a Carver owner because 3 of my good friends each own or owned 57 Carvers.
I have been spent much time both cruising and working on these boats over the past years.
Happy New Year
Rene
Mystic,CT

Post Hairline cracks on entire hull - anyone fix?


Just removed bottom paint and discovered that the entire perimeter of the Hull below the waterline has hairline cracks (crazing) from the paint stripe running north south to the Chine. Also found a few hairline cracks on the bottom hull - but not as extensive as the area above the chine.



Spoke to Carver and they admitted that they had a product defect back then and stopped using material from that supplier. Never determined why some boats had cracks and others did not. Either way - they say it's ...
