Hi all, I'd like to introduce myself. My name is Paul Simos. I live in North Carolina and must first admit that I am a yacht broker. It gets worse. I am also not only not a Carver owner but a sailor, and I have never owned a proper motor yacht. I'm glad I got that off my chest. I also promise never to mention my employer or try to peddle my wares here. I do deal largely with motor yachts that have or will complete the Great Loop and, over time, have gained great fondness and respect for the Carver brand. Often, my clients and I alike have questions about these fine machines that are tough to answer, and I believe being a part of this family will allow me access to deep Carver knowledge so I can better represent the brand. I also will do my best to add to any discussions where my experience could be helpful to someone else, again without mentioning my employer or trying to sell as much as an oil filter for a 6BT. I appreciate that this forum exists and will now go on to ask my first, hopefully simple, question.

Welcome to the neighborhood. I live in Green Bay, WI. I have a lot of friends who worked at Carver during the 80's and 90's. Carver's main manufacturing facility was just 12 miles from my house. We used to rent a condo at Sunset Beach NC for winter escape. You mentioned you were about to ask your first question, but I did not see that. Ask anything you would like, just try to use the appropriate topic section. 8-) er
