Post New Carver owner.


Just bought my 1990 Carver 42 Aft Cabin last week. Took it for a shake down cruise from Duneden, Fl down thru the Okachobee water way then back up the intercoastal to Cocoa Beach. Didn't uncover much that wasn't already known, but did come away with a long list of work items. Anyway, looking forward to meeting you and learned the ins and outs of the Carver business.

I am wanting to switch all my bridge lighting to the blue lighting rather than the white lights. Does anyone know the best place to buy the blue lights? Also do I just need to by replacement blue bulbs or will need a whole new fixture to switch to blue lighting? Thanks for any info or advise!

Post Hydraulic Swim Platform


We own a 2005 Carver 41CMY, we have seaweed dinghy davits and a dinghy as a tender. Under power last week the davits bent and i almost lost the tender. The factory swim platform seems low in the water. I am looking to have a hydraulic platform installed, does anyone have experience with this?

Post Propane Tank Storage


Hi All- I recently acquired a 76 Carver Santa Cruz 28, but for the life of me, I can't seem to locate where the propane tank is stored on her for the galley stove. There's a copper tube fed into the supply of the stove, but I can't see it running fore or aft. Typically, these have a 3 gl bottle - my thought would have been on the starboard side of the engine compartment, but I am not seeing a line or regulator. Any tips would be appreciated!

Post Replacement Decals


The original carver decals on my 98 530 Voyager were faded so I am taking them off. Does any one know where to get the foam filled chrome carver decals that are on some of the 2005-2008 models? I think those look really sharp and more up to date...thanks for any info!

Post Rear Bimini Top


I have a 1976 Carver 2866 Santa Cruz with upper helm/fly bridge. Does anyone have any pictures of rear bimini tops on the same model? We board from the side & need to access the ladder to the fly bridge, a normal bimini top will not work for us.
