Post New Carver Owner (1997 33-Aft Cabin)
- Posted by: Aflix » November 15th, 2023, 4:15 pm
- Forum: Introduce Yourself!
HI All,
My name is Alex and I recently bought a 1997 Carver 33 Aft Cabin. Coming from a European river/canal cruiser - this is like going back to college!!!
I've already had so many problems, the boat was untouched for 3 yrs!
I've also already gotten so much out this site! Thank you all!!!
So, I have a kitchen remodel project started and as a token of thanks, I am going to offer anything I dismantle/take out to the community for free (for example, cabinet fixtures and doors)
Best to all!

Post The new guy, just purchased a carver Montego that was abandoned

- Forum: Introduce Yourself!
My name is Joey, I bought a 89 32 Montego
CDRN5026H889
I bought it from a couple that bought the lot it was sitting on, it was someones project, but then he passed away. It has been sitting for a few years and has had its share of parts taken from it, but it seems to have good bones. I have to inspect the hull once I get it for the boat yard. If anyone can help with the model number that would be great
Apparently it's 5026. But it's a 32 footer so I'm really confused

Post Conversion from raw to fresh water cooling?
- Posted by: Boat bums » November 11th, 2023, 9:40 pm
- Forum: The Project Center
Greetings all,
Long time former Hatteras owner looking to own 38-40 Carver. In my search I have found at bunch with raw water cooling. That won't work for me as I am going to spend 50% of my time in salt water and be there for 4-6 months. Does Carver or any of the engine folks sell a conversion kit?
TIA

Post 396 Carver forward Air conditioner Control Box location?
- Posted by: paulr » November 11th, 2023, 1:24 pm
- Forum: AC/Heat, Plumbing & Sanitation
Hi all,
My 2001 396 Carver has 3 air conditioners. The compressor does not start when calling for heat or cooling on the forward unit but the fan does run ok. The passport II thermostat shows its calling for heat or cool.
The A/C repair guy showed up and needed to get to the Control Box box. We found the pump relay box in the forward bildge bout no Control Box. Can somebody please tell me where it may be located.
Thank you for any comments

Hello, thanks for adding me as a member.
Previously owned a 1977 Santa 'Fe 26' and sold it 10 years ago. Loved that boat.
Looking at a 1981 Montego 2357 cruiser, not the fishing version. It has the v-berth with kitchenet and nice big aft area.
I have heard that these were built on the fishing hull so I would guess they are pretty capable in 3' chop.
Not a lot of info on these boats. Would love to hear from any owners and any pics if ya got 'em.
Also any links to info would be appreciated.

What is the intended use for this divided sink? There is a plexiglass divider which allows water to go underneath.

Hi Folks,
I have had a 1987 Carver Mariner for 22 years. I sold it this fall and purchased a 2005 Carver 38 Super Sport.
We are on Lake Lanier Ga.
I have lots of questions on the new boat. Thanks in advance for the help.
Joe.

Post '89 Santego, AC problem
- Posted by: bobwhorn » November 7th, 2023, 5:53 pm
- Forum: AC/Heat, Plumbing & Sanitation
The salon unit is not cooling really well. The unit is mounted under the steps coming into the salon, not very accessible. I think I have located the low side pressure connection and have some R410a coming. If that doesn't fix it it will need to be replaced. But How? The steps are carpeted and I can't see any way to remove them. There must be a way, right?
Thanks for any input,
Bob
