Proud new owner of a 1987 2827 Voyager, as of August. Upgraded to sedan cruiser from a Sea Ray 260 Sundancer. Long time boater but new to twin engines. Also new to Carvers so I am hoping for the best. Doing some minor upgrades over winter, ready for a great 2016 boating season.
Inland boater on rivers and lakes.

The attached photos are of what appears to be a dimmer switch in the master state room of my 1997 Carver 405. It does not work and I don't know what it's for. Can anybody tell me what it does?

I recently purchased a used 1998 Carver 405 from a Hunter 336 Sailboat, as it will be a liveaboard vessel, and within the next year, it will get us started on the travel of the Great Loop, as I retired early with medical disability. I have spent 30 years in my career in information technology, from Windows 2.1 to Windows 7 and Windows 2012 Servers. I worked as a contractor with NASA Kennedy Space Center, and started with McDonnell Douglas, then in 1999, the company merged with The Boeing ...

Thanks

We are in final stages of negotiations on a 1996 Carver 355. As we have walked the decks a bit, I noticed that the flybridge area has a bit of "bounce" to it. I saw or felt none on the aft sundeck or the lower main salon level. HAs anyone ever experienced this? I am 230 LBS and I "jumped" on the deck and it shook a bit. Could this be delamination or am I just paranoid? ANY info would be great!

Hi Everyone,



I'm a new member here. Just bought a 1990 3807 Aft cabin and am in the process of fixing all of the little things the last guy never dealt with. We have a big to do list before we go boating for our first season on this awesome Carver!



One thing we need is port light screens. The portholes are oval in shape and 24" in overall length (including trim) and 8" overall height (including trim) on the inside. Picture is attached. If anyone has these types of windows and/or knows where I ...

Greetings all and thanks for taking the time to read this. I finally got all three of the AC units to run correctly. Unfortunately the unit in the back stateroom runs for about 15 to 20 minutes before it overheats and flips the breaker on the AC pump itself. All 3 AC units get water from a central water pump and discharge through separate areas so I dont think its the intake, could it be low on freon? Can that cause a unit to overheat. Thanks again for your help.

My Montego came on a home made three axle trailer. I found a factory built steel trailer that the owner believes to be a 7,000 steel trailer with electric brakes on the front axle with 15 inch tires.

Can't find in any of my literature the weight of the boat, only displacement.

HELP!!

In my 32 years of life I have been smart enough to rent or borrow other peoples boats despite being a certified marine mechanic... until now.







The guy that surveyed my fathers 37' Marine trader turned me onto this boat. It was part of an estate of a gentleman who passed away 4 years ago. The family is still struggling with the loss but after all this time have received permission from the attorneys to start liquidating assets to close out the estate. I was fortunat ...

Any members out there with an Autopilot installed after purchase?
Looking for feedback on whether this is feasible, worth the effort, handling characteristics of vessel.
If installed, what model did you choose, size of compass card, liquid, digital?
We do some extended cruising and would like to know if this may be an option to add.
Any information would be greatly appreciated.

cheers, Capt. Happy
