Congrats Pete! Let the good times roll! Remember to contact Carver with your info as the new owner. They will be able to tell you all kinds of stuff about that specific vessel. If the broker did not identify the PO, they will probably have that so you can check in with that person and get any additional info on nuances with how she runs and handles. BIG FUNNN!

What kind of bottom paint are you thinking? Do you know what formula is on it now?

A lot of boaters use Interlux Off Shore in your area. Expensive, but worth it. Probably around $450 a gallon. Usually requires sanding off old and applying new, messy job. Designed for salt water and you should get several seasons out of it. Good luck.

Beautiful boats. I love the hardtops. Does anyone know if they are Carver options or aftermarket? If aftermarket, the manufacturer?

I might have the original receipt from the previous owner for the hardtop work, I'll let you know.
