Hi all,

Post Blackwater pumpout question


As we're preparing to cross to the Bahamas in a month or so, I have heard some real crazy stories of people paying as much as $135 for a blackwater tank pumpout - and on boats with smaller holding tanks than ours! It seems pumpout locations have become few-and-far-between, and quite expensive if you're in some areas.

Unfortunately we do not have the installed option to pump directly overboard and I don't really have the time to add an overboard discharge system in the time frame I'm working with ...

Post Inverter installation... No wiring schematic!


So I'm wanting to add an inverter/charger and some monitoring capability (as well as a dedicated house bank) to my 1996 455. I think I finally have a grasp on how I want the future system to look, but my problem now is I can't find ANYTHING with any details about how the original electrical system was wired. In the owner's manual for both DC and AC Systems there's a schematics page... But it's blank and says "Not available at time of printing" which is less than helpful. Anybody know where I ...

Post Newby needing advice


Howdy folks, looking for some advice on the following situation: I "inherited" a boat from my uncle....he's not able to enjoying the boating life anymore due to terminal illness and has asked me to sell his boat of him. I'm not a boat savvy so just looking for a ballpark price for what his boat might be worth so I can recognize a decent price when someone offers. Here's what I know about it: 1987 Carver 32', hour meter shows 1272. Gas burner with dual engines and a separate generator. Ran up an ...

Post Introduction


Good evening all,

I'm the brand new owner of a 1985 3207 aft cabin. I have no clue what I have gotten myself into! I have dozens of questions, but I'll look in the existing threads before I ask something that has already been answered.



I do have a quick question - The boat is in Louisville KY. I'm at Lake of the Ozarks MO. I think the width is 11' 7" and the weight 12,000#. To get a transportation quote I'll need the height. We can remove the bimini, so the height to the top of the fly bridge ...

Post Buying a Voyager 530, need survey


Well, I did it. Put an offer on a Carver Voyager 530 and it was accepted. I'm looking for a surveyor who is up on the Voyager model line. Prefer in the mid-west but can be any location if they are willing to travel.

I did a pretty good inspection but didn't test anything yet as the boat is up dry, and no power to anything.

Post Hello


Hello :-) we, my girlfriend and i, was just given a Carver 3396 Mariner 1981 model with two Volvo 155hp located in the Canary islands. It has been used by an elderly man as winter "residence" getting away from the cold in Norway.

We already have a house in the northend of the island with a hobby workshop so i am well equipped to take on this task i hope ;-) It is a big project i think, a lightning strike killed the batteries 4 years ago and due to his age (88) he did not bother replacing it ...

Post 89' Santego switch to raw water flush


With the small water tanks, I think it is a shame to use fresh water to flush the head. There is an unused thru hull next to the shower sump. Has anyone used that thru hull for flush water?

Post Spring buffing/polishing


This is going to sound tacky, but I am getting older. I had my Mariner compounded last spring with Turbo Cut compound. Looks great! I applied Mequiars Premium wax. Here is where I'm going with this. Sitting in the warm storage bay, the hull still looks like a mirror. The guy that did the compounding mentioned he thought this was the first time it was ever compounded. Made a heck of a mess with grit all over the floor. I normally regard polishing as an annual requirement, but not sure I am going ...
