Post Electrical leak from refrigerator


Last summer, I was getting a prop changed via a diver. I cut the shore power off. He noticed a slight electrical current coming off the rudder. I have my outlets running through a Promariner ps2000 inverter charger. The inverter was on, though the only thing running was the fridge. I realized I hadn’t cut the inverter off. Once I cut it off, the current stopped.

I have been concerned about the leak, since reading on here and elsewhere about the danger of Electric Shock Drowning (ESD). I called t ...

Post Hello Everyone


I don't own a Carver, or any boat for that matter. I'm a potential future owner, shopping for information at this point, and this forum looks like a great resource.



I live in Wyoming so there aren't many waterways that most Carvers would be a good fit in. My wife and I are looking at a mid 80's Carver 3607 as a potential loop vessel. We're about 8 years away from retirement and the loop is one of the things we're planning on doing. We've done a lot of camping in a small A frame pop up so a 36 ...

Post Any advice on purchasing 55' Californian CYM


I am in the process of buying a 1989 Californian 55 CMY with Detroit 6-92's in the NW. The survey is this Friday. Anything in particular to pay attention to on those boats? Thanks.

Post It was cold, but not that cold!


This winter I dropped a USB temp probe on my engine to see what the temps would be like over the winter. It sampled temp a little over an hour for each one and I recorded it from last October till today. This is with the boat sitting outside with shinkwrap and the monitor was just placed on the intake manifold.

Here's what it looks like:

Post New owner in Oxnard, CA!


Hi Everyone!

My wife Sue and I are new owners of a 1990 Santego 3467. The boat is in Channel Islands Harbor, Oxnard, CA. We hope to explore the many anchorages of the Channel Islands.

We love the boat!

In the meantime we have a lot of items on the to do list to get the boat offshore-ready and I will be asking advice.

Thank you in advance!

Post Do you Run Your Bilge Blower When Underway?


Just looking for feedback as to if you tend to run your blower when underway? We have had issues with our CO2 alarms going off when underway and I was wondering if running the bilge blower had anything to do with the airflow and part of the cause? We always keep our windows and cabin door shut and have a 326 Aft cabin.

Any feedback is appreciated.

Thanks all!

Post 1994 Carver 350 Aft Cabin- replacement throttle and Shifters


I've recently purchased a 1994 Carver 350 Aft Cabin. The upper helm shifter and throttle controls are looking a bit worn and I'm looking to replace them. I contacted Carver Parts and Service and they advised that in 1995 the throttles/shifters were Teleflex 4400 series twin level controls. I've search for these online but the ones I've found appear to be quite a bit different.

Attached is a photo of the upper helm that includes both sets of controls. Does anyone know where i can find them?
