I have a 1987 3706 aft cabin. the bow haul seems to always have a few inches of water in it. My shower box pump sits the middle of this canal and the auto belie pump is under the galley steps closer to the center of the boat. I can see how when running not on plane with nose up how the water could flow back to the auto pump. Do must find water in this location and what can be done to reduce it or laminate it?


Thank you for your help ,

1987 3607' lower level helm oil gauge( original) reads correct pressure but is not eliminating it's red back glow. Is it a simple as replacing a bulb or does the whole unit need to be replace? Thank you for your help and advice.

Thank you.

We just spent our first couple of night on our new 1985 3607 aft cabin boat. Closed up earlier than expected because the winds today were gusting to 90 km/hr. Noticed that I was able to put my pinky finger through an opening at the top of the windows in the salon area. They all seemed to be closed properly and nothing seemed to be missing. Is this normal? Basically it means that there is always an opening to the elements and depending on how any rain might fall, the interior will get wet.

As we have spoken, I have a start, genset battery and a pair of T105 6V GC batteries for the house. Not running a lot, but would like a bit more capacity. We run genset a couple times a day for 2 hours. House bank usually around 80% in the AM and 85% end of day. Genset brings it back to 90-95%. I am looking into solar panels also.

Anyway, not too much room on my ‘94 390CPMY. I was thinking of placing the 2 additional 6V GC batteries in an appropriate battery box and placing them forward in the g ...

Offer was accepted today on a 1998 Carver 350 pending survey and sea trial. Will be having a hull moisture test done as I have read this is an issue. What else if should I be on the lookout for?

Hey all I am new to this forum and owner of a new to us 1989 3807 AFT Cabin. We are not new boaters/cruiser’s but new to this vessel. The AFT AC works great however the front is not working, it blows but no cooling, I am thinking the pump or maybe a clogged strainer where might I locate the items. We purchased this boat knowing there were a couple of issues mostly just cleaning and sprucing up engines and gen in good shape. Thanks for you help in advance and safe boating to all!

355 carver. 1998. First day in boat was a disaster.

Must have picked up a rope on port side.

Rumble would not go away. So turned it off. Starboard side started showing about 10 oil pressure. Checked oil. On full mark. No oil on board from the guy I just bought it from. Ahhh.

Tried port engine again. Good for a bit. Thdd EX n rumble again. Turn off. Then try lower station to see if perhaps it didn’t go all the way into gear because of a cable. Nothing at lower. Try upper again. Nothing. Check ca ...

I am seriously thinking of solar panels on the roof of my 390CPMY to help keep batteries charged during the day while at a mooring or anchored. I have a 3 bank charger that charges all batteries, Start, House and Genset. How did you all wire them in? Did it hurt the on board charger? Pics?

Thank you again!
