View the latest post Fully cored hulls??


Are there any of the Carver models that have fully cored hulls?

I've done some poking around and see a bunch of other manufacturers that have used it over the years (most notably Sea Ray since the early 90s) but haven't run across a Carver model yet that I've found fully cored. I had always thought my old 3607 had cored sides in the hull or superstructure, but found that wasn't the case when I put some holes in it (intentionally). It certainly had cored decks and swim platform, but that's to be expected and pretty normal.

What about the other models? Any that are known to be fully cored hulls?

View the latest post Davit on aft deck roof of 506


Does anyone know of or ever heard of anyone installing a davit on the top of the aft deck on a 506?
We are pulling the trigger on a 2000 506. I climbed the folding ladder and to check out the equipment on the arch and the area around the sliding sky lite and found that the deck up there is quite substantial with nonskid on the surface. It seems like it would be capable of storing a dink up there so I could remove the davit from the swim platform. It is a long way up to winch a dink I know.

Does anybody know where I can get help with my Kohler 6.5cz generator. I've tried to reflash it and tried 2 new capacitors and I still don't get any voltage from it.

View the latest post Fresh Water & Sewage Tank Level Monitor not working


New to me 2009 44 Sojourn.
Both tanks indicate empty all the time.
Water tank completely full - still shows empty. Tank is clean.
Holding tank about 3/4 full - still shows empty. Tank is not very clean on the inside.
Both tanks are plastic.
Sensor system is the SensaTank II system using the probeless external sensors attached to the outside of the tank.
All wires appear to be original to the boat and all solder joints and stuff look to be in good condition.
I have not pulled the actual gauge and verified any issues behind it.

Any suggestions on what is going on with the system.
I know I can try and clean the holding tank but this would not resolve the water tank issue.

Thanks.

View the latest post Two props 22x22 1.5” shaft DQX Bronze


I have two like new 22x22 Michigan Wheel bronze DQX props. One is right hand, the other left hand. I bought them new last January, arrived in March. I used them for 9 miles, while I had my old props straightened.

After pulling them, I had them assessed and straightened at Performance Propeller in Soddy Daisy. They were apparently slightly out of round from shipping or when they were installed by the diver. Anyway, they are in the original packaging and ready for shipment. New ones are $3800 plus shipping and tax with a two to three month wait. I will sell them for $3,000 plus shipping. I plan to list them on EBay in a couple of weeks for $3,300 plus shipping but thought I would check here first to see if anyone needs a set.

View the latest post Any Carver/Trojan owners in the Toronto area?


I'm interested in a boat located in Toronto. Problem is I am in Philadelphia and there is no way to see the boat in person until the travel restrictions are relaxed and who knows when that will be. So my question is does anyone live in the Toronto area that would be interested in looking at a boat for me? It's on land, shrink-wrapped with a zipper and I just want an unbiased set of eyes on the boat. Pictures of the cushions, helm area, interior, etc.

Thanks!

View the latest post 3467 Santego Hydraulic Steering


Hello Captains,
Need some help. I have the original Hynautic H-50 helm with RV-55 Reservoir on my 1989 Santego. Does anybody have the exact Sea Star replacement information? I have spent quite a bit rebuilding the Reservior and rudder cylinder and now the helm is grinding. I want to replace the entire system without too many alterations and get away from the “Reservior” system.
Thanks, Greg
