Has anyone used a generic oil to top up a QL (Volvo) bp800. My manual calls for a Volvo p/n 41100129 oil which is not readily available where I live. It smells and looks like Auto transmission fluid. It is red and very light. Any advice would be appreciated. My location is Queensland Australia.... a long way from home!! Claudex

Has anyone installed the Weaver ARC Transom and Bow Davit system along with their Lever product? I'm looking for pictures of an installed setup. Thank you.

Has anyone seen any rail screens like the one on this boat? http://www.chitwood-charters.com/56FootCarverPOP18.html My 560 has only plain rails and I don't want my little nephews wriggling through the rails. The rail screen looks nice and it'd serve a great purpose. If anyone's seen anything like those screens, let me know! Thanks!

We have a1996 430 Carver. We believe the previous owners knew there was issues with the fuel tanks but did not disclose. We took out the starboard tank, found several rust pin holes. We cant remove the port unless we take engine out. So my question is there a bladder or something we can put inside the tanks without having to remove?

No pics to show yet, but I've started buffing and waxing...only have the flybridge shell to do. She is shining better than last year...it's quite impressive for a 16 year old boat! We're also making new curtains for the entry door and I'm installing underwater lighting after I sand off all of the red bottom paint and change it to black. Why the previous owner changed it to red is beyond me...especially with the green canvas!

Hello, joined the club last week. Going from a Regal 3560 Cruiser to a 2005 Carver 396. Looking forward to the change. I am sure I will be reaching out to the group for some advice. Bob

My '06 560 didn't come with a rear dining table and I'm interested in adding it on. Does Carver only sell through dealers or can I order from them directly? Do they have a parts list? Sorry! I'm new to the Carver world. Thanks in advance. The factory table option looks like this. http://www.chitwood-charters.com/56FootCarverPOP3.html I think its treated cherry like the interior.
