View the latest post Hit a rock today..........................


While cruising out of the channel, we were scoping out how the Coast Guard removed a green can, that was the only marking of the entrance to the channel. Looking about and then BAM! Very loud noise. I knew we hit something, but what and how bad. I motored away with no vibration, so I took the throttle up to cruising speed and again, all seemed fine. We continued on our way, had a super day and got back to the marina. After we docked, I donned the mask and fins and got a bit sick over the port prop. Pretty mangled up. So, we emptied the refrigerator, called the marina for a haul tomorrow and need to send the prop out. I wished I had a spare but don't even know what I have. My Carver book just says 22 x 22. So I guess once we get it out on the hard more information will be uncovered.

View the latest post Norcold Frig Parts - free!


I'm replacing the original 7 cu ft Norcold DE-461/DE-561 Frig on my 3227 with a nice, new, expensive DE-0061R . This is the larger frig used on 3227/3007/3207/3607 models. I would be happy to give away any parts that someone needs for their frig - shelves, drawers, doors, etc. You just pay the shipping/freight. Send a message and let me know what you need - I can send you a pic back and you decide it you want it...

View the latest post Carver 444 bow heavy


Morning. I have a 2001 444 cpmy. At the dock the boat has a very pronounced bow heavy feel. The floor/deck slopes toward the bow.

We have all chain anchor rode so pretty heavy.

Any thought on managing fuel/water loads to mitigate?

Thanks.

View the latest post Auto Bilge pumps inop


I have discovered that my auto bilge pumps which are supported by seperate CB are inop. All three pumps work fine when selected on at the helm. I checked one float switch by jumping wires and no pump action just to be sure all three float switches had not gone bad. I reset the auto bilge pump circuit breakers to no affect. Any good ideas?

View the latest post Gallons per hour


I was wondering what the average GPH is around here. I use a TWIN SCAN and find that my 290 CPMY with thirsty 454 Carbed use (combined) 22 GPH at 2900 RPM, which gives me 14 KTS. At to 3600 RPM I am kicking a$$ at 26 KTS but am also at 52 GPH. Anyone else?

View the latest post AC System HFP Code on One AC Unit


I have a 396MY with three AC Units. Yesterday when i turned on my units I received HFP on all units after they ran for an hour or so. So I cleaned the sea strainer ( just cleaned it a week ago). The strainer was clean...so i thought I had buildup in the ac discharge lines. Flushed with fresh water with pressure from water hose. Now the forward and rear unit are working fine and the one in the Salon will work for a few mins and then get the HFP code again....getting good stream of water from discharge...any and all help appreciated
