Bought a 1978 Carver for the motor for my 29 foot phoenix. think I'm going to keep the Carver and maybe sell the other one. Will have to add a swim platform and dive ladder to the Carver but like the look of the boat. Lots of work to be done but hopefully will be worth the effort.

I am new to boating and obviously new to Carver. I am buying a 1990 3067 which has passed the survey with flying colors as has the mechanical. I wanted to reach out to other carver owners and solicit any opinions of the boat, the brand etc. I bought this as a family weekender with the size I felt I could manage as a first boat ))) Any feedback or input will be greatly appreciated Chippery

The engine cruise RPM is 3100-3200. Max RPM is 4600, it reaches 4100 with the current setup. In general, is the economy at 1500 rpm (around 12 mph by my gps) similar to the higher, cruise setting? I'm sure the fuel usage rate is down but I'm also travelling 10-12 mph slower than at 3100 rpm.
