This Polycarbonate Carver 405 M/Y Side Panel had been an OEM sundeck panel on my 1997 Carver 405 M/Y. I have since replaced with marine grade aluminum and no longer need it. The panel is located in NJ and I am asking $200.

As you know, the original Carver sleep sofa has to be moved for access to the port engine. That sofa was just too much for me to handle. I would have to partially disassemble it to move it when doing maintenance. Plus after 20 years it was showing some wear. I would have loved simply purchasing a sectional unit, but could not find one the right size. I decided to build a sectional. No, I have never built furniture before. I studied some sectionals online, example: As you know, the original Carver sleep sofa has to be moved for access to the port engine. That sofa was just too much for me to handle.

The Bridge Throttles on my 1984 28-foot Voyager are stiff and will not hold RPM. When trying to set a Cruising RPM they creep downward. This condition is not repeated with the Cabin Throttles. I have twin Mercruisers and they are running beautifully, but the throttles are are wearing out my right arm. Thanks for any suggestions as I am new to this boat and can use all the help I can get!

Wanted to post my information on how I solved a sqealing belt from a 8E Kohler generator.



We bought the 370 6 Months ago and when we ran the generator it sometimes would sqeal from a slipping belt and finally the belt broke a couple of weeks ago.



Reviewing several different posts on the internet it seems this Generator Kohler 8E has a service bulletin SB-609 which I never could find to read but there are several interpertations of it. It seems that the engine back spins when you shut in down cau ...

We have a situation similar to the one Smoken recently posted. When on marina water we have good pressure & flow on all faucets & showers. When we switch to the ship system, there is a dribble at faucets & showers. We replaced the pump over the winter. Checked all faucets/shower heads for debris. All clean.

Thanx in advance.

Hello guys,



So I finally get the boat out and stretched her legs yesterday. Running along at 3600 rpms at 20 mph actually heading back to the slip and my siren goes off? And both engines it appeared died, but maybe just the port size becauseithappened so fast. Regardless I shut both of them off.



Checking the gauges, starboard engine was fine and started back up, port had died and would not restart.



Oil levels were fine yesterday and today at the full mark. Engines temps were normal at 175-180 rang ...

We have a 396 Carver MY with 3 AC units...had the AC winterized by the marina as we are not very mechanically inclined...The aft AC seems to be working but the AC in the salon comes on but water flow is not great...We get an error message HPF and then water flow stops..Could this be due to strainer needing cleaning...I think there is only one sea cock for all 3 units ..not sure if they do something when they winterize that we need to undo??

Does anyone know the wiring diagram for a Seawolf 520. I have replaced the foot switch, and the motor is in good condition, but the motor doesn't run continually, suggesting something wrong with the solenoid or wiring system. I need to better understand the wiring on this unit.

Hello all,



I’ve lurked around for awhile, but decided to take the plunge and join.



We bought a 1973 Carver Camper back in February and have spent the last few months tinkering on it and waiting for ramps to reopen.



Planning to get it on the water in a couple weeks, expect some posts from me as I verify that I’ve covered all my bases.



We’ll be mooring it down on a coastal bay here and just using it in the bay for now - two small kids. It’s been an awesome family boat so far... parked in my drivewa ...

Hello,

Well, after several surveys and about a year and a half we have purchased a beautiful 1996 370 Voyager. We love the boat for the two of us. We are from Portland OR and will be mostly cruising the rivers. My wife S finally happy after a few disappointments with Bayliner and a coupl Carver Aft Cabins.

Thanks for all the information on the site, I have used it over the past 2 years.

Happy Boating,

Pat and Michelle.
