Greetings!

Post by CarverCamper »

I'm very pleased to be a part of this forum now. I ran across it while searching the news about the closing of Carver Yachts earlier this year. A sad day.. but maybe not forever?

My Carver is not a "yacht" by any means but it is a 1967 Camper 21', a beautifully restored lapstrake wooden model and repowered with a Mercruiser Alpha1 by a relative of mine. Not sure how much discussion there is about these "vintage" boats but I'm happy to chime in on the subject at any time!

Cheers!

Welcome Aboard. I think you most likely do have the oldest Carver in this group. Definitely looking forward to your pictures.

Wow...thanks for the the warm welcome everyone! I can tell this will be a fun group to be a part of.

With the weather closing in I haven't had the opportunity to take her out for a shakedown cruise or to build a proper picture portfolio so these pics are a mix of mine and the former owners shots. She was a rough "barn find" in Wisconsin...not too far from Pulaski as a matter of fact. Looks a lot better now.

Thanks everyone!
