Post Hi folks


Tom here from Boulder City NV. Just bought a 1988 Carver Voyager. Tough during this virus thing. Lake Mead is closed but we can shelter in place on the boat in the Lake Mead Boat Harbor. Lot's of questions to ask or search for.

Post Impellers


I saw a discussion on the Trent Severn Waterway Forum, here in Ontario, where someone stated that you must be sure to install your impeller properly. They went on to say that impellers do NOT self correct if they are put into the housing with the blades in the wrong direction. The author advised that if your marine tech tells you they do self correct, it's time to find a new tech.



I have always been told that impellers do self correct and I have been advised this by marine tech's over the year ...

Post Port engine access 2004 360 Sedan (8.1 Crusaders)


Hello. I need some advise from someone that is familiar with the 2004 360 (8.1L Crusaders) sedan with access to the top of the port engine. I need to pull the fuel rail and am wondering if/how to pull the floor up to gain access. The refrigerator and wall cabinet are there as well as the galley floor. How/can they be pulled up and removed?

Thanks in advance if anyone has tackled access on the top of this engine on this model.

Scott in York PA.

Post Canvas and enclosure for sale: 1994 390 CPMY


In the summer of 2020, while still on the dry, we had a full custom canvas and Isenglass enclosure made and installed by Yuriy of Cover-All Marine, Mullica HIll, NJ (http://www.coverallmarine.com/) . Yuriy's work is top notch. We launched very late in the season and enjoyed three days travelling before tying up at our home port at Schooner Island Marina in Wildwood, NJ. A few weeks later our beloved CPMY went down in a "Bomb Squall" while docked at our marina. The sinking was partial; salt w ...

Post 1999 MIE 7.4 MPI ECM Parameter's


Hello all, I am currently searching for a gremlin in my port engine. I have Diacom and can pull all the info the ECM receives however I don't really know what to compare the info to. Is there a chart that is available that displays the RPM-MAP-IAC-IPW-Spark Advance etc. to know what the target parameter is for each at a specified RPM? I understand a chart with this info could be extremely complicated and large however there has to be some sort of table because that's what the ECM uses. Any thoug ...

Post Recommendations please...


Does anyone have a recommendation for a Random Orbital Polishing Machine? There are a plethora for sale.
Shurehold features a unit ( mfg#3500) that seems pretty interesting, however I would appreciate your first hand experience and feedback.

Post Brass Propane Bottle Caps


Always was a little gun shy storing propane bottles on board as the inlet/outlet on those 1lb disposable bottles is really cheaply made. Came across these while browsing for another propane related product. Will take a month or so to get but the season is still a ways off. https://www.amazon.ca/gp/product/B06XX8 ... GECC&psc=1

Post 1980 Carver 28 Voyager - Buyers advice


Hey all together,

I am new here and maybe becoming part of the Carver Yachts community.
I am 33 yo from Germany and currently very interested in buying a 1980 Carver 28 Voyager.
The boat looks a bit bulky but brings a lot of storage room for 28ft lenght, as I am planning to move partly on the water (as a 2nd home).

I am looking for some advice regarding the model and the 2 crusader 5.7 L V8 engines.
The offer I am currently interested in is this one:
