Re: Carver closing?
Yup....hopefully someone will get some legacy info and left over bits if they are available.....of course after saying that , how much real value would that have to anyone to benefit them to manage that.......
FWIW.....The above is just my opinion.....

Re: Carver closing?
Hi to all. Just joined the forum today. While trying to find owner manuals, etc. for my "new" 1990 4207 that I just purchased a few weeks ago, I found out that Carver has indeed closed up shop. A dealer in Florida (ECM in Niceville) gave me a contact at Carver - Brian - now unemployed after 24 yrs with them. He said to download all that I can from Carver's website, because it will be taken down soon. The contact number has been disconnected this week; worked Monday, doesn't now. I guess I'm going to be relying on this forum to learn about 4207's.

Re: Carver closing?
Suggestion to the admin of this forum. Is it possible to download everything possible from Carver and store it on this site? Maybe someone can contact Carver and ask for permission? Would be an extremely valuable resource for all future and existing Carver owners not to mention a great asset to the site.

Re: Carver closing?
Hi Gang,
I tried calling Carver customer service this AM and got the following message, "This number is no longer in service".
I called both numbers on the website which are:
Phone: +1-920-822-3214
Toll Free: 1-800-231-8978
I have tried both numbers multiple times.
Are we finally at the end of the line or does anyone have any other backdoor or super secret direct line?
Crossing fingers! Ughhhhhhhhh
Be Safe, Greg

Re: Carver closing?
Maybe those of us that have already downloaded various models etc could create a tab or whatever and upload the documents that we each have so all members could view them when needed.

Re: Carver closing?
The Carver Yachts site is still up... the drop down box under support is still up.....for parts , manuals and brochures etc......so get on there and download what you need before it stops......
FWIW.....The above is just my opinion.....
