Post Carver Montego 2757
- Posted by: Ramsport47 » February 10th, 2013, 7:22 am
- Forum: Introduce Yourself!
Hi all. I just found this site through the "Carver Yachts Official" site on facebook. I work at a dealer that once sold Carver Yachts prior to Carver's most recent bankruptcy, for 47 years. I've worked there for 32 years and can try to help as many of you as I can with tech questions or anything else. Let me know. I am on my second Carver, a 1988 2757 Montego...the first being a 2557 Montego. We currently have the 27 for sale (after owning her for 14 years) with hopes of finding a nice 325 ...

Why does a Hynautic reservoir have a relief valve on the bottom, if the helm station also has a built in relief valve?

Post NMEA "hub"
- Posted by: waybomb » February 7th, 2013, 7:27 pm
- Forum: Electronics & Navigation
On my 42 Carver, I had all the instruments and radio talking to each other. I remember I had to buy a NMEA connection box. I believe it boosted the signals, maybe even made sure they came and went in order.
I'm wiring up my project Carver now, and using NMEA communication.
Does anybody know what I'm writing about here, and where to get one?
I have a NMEA heading sensor for ARPA on the radar, I have GPS, Speed and temp from the chartplotter that I'd like to use to fill in the blanks on the radar, a ...

Post To make my 87 Mariner look less ugly

We removed all black trim and striping, and changed the striping to blue.
The big black painted surfaces on the side will be covered with glossy DiNoc, which is a 3M product that looks as if it is Carbon Fiber. Haven't done it yet since we are still doing other things, but the DiNoc is ordered, and pix will be posted once complete.

Post 1987 36 Mariner - back to life!
- Posted by: waybomb » February 5th, 2013, 10:16 pm
- Forum: The Project Center
This year we bought a 1987 Carver 36 Mariner that sat out in the open for 10 years. I've posted some pix in my photobucket link below, and will post more as we go along. I listed a bunch of things we've done so far in the intro forum at the top.
Been working on it since about July.
Right now we have a total investment of 17k, which includes every dime we spent on her from purchase to registration, heated winter storage, and all the stuff we purchased. Not counted is the 500 hours so far between my ...

Hi all
Found this site through boatered. I've owned Carvers since 1988.
We bought our first boat, a 1988 Carver 2807 Riviera in September of '88, brand new, from Oselka'0s in New Buffalo, Mi. Had it Lake Michigan until 92; Moved to Kent Island, MD, had it there for a number of years; then moved it all the way to Ventura, Ca for a few years; and finally to Port Washington, WI for a couple of years.
While in CA, bought a 1964 Barron flatbottom drag boat and still have it.
While in Port, found a Carv ...
