Thanks for your help.

1987 3607. we took the boat out for an overnight stay. Cruised about 2 hours , dropped anchor and then ran the gen for an hour. Next morning we started the gen again for about an hour to charge back up the house batteries . Cruised around and back to the dock. Looked in the hatch and noticed some water in the gen oil catch pan and in the haul underneath it.
So I fired the gen up and couldn't see a leak. could it be condensation or a small leak I just can't see. Viper what are your thoughts sir? Thank you everyone for ideas.

I have a 1989 Carver aft 38 with a mid bilge pump problem. The pump was not working according to the survey. I bought new with a float because the old one quite old. I am getting no power to the location. switches are on,however in the aft stateroom the center switch which says mid bilge is not a switch but appears to be a pop out fuse. How do I reset it. I have cut the old pump so nothing should be tripping it. As a side note being new to this the electrical layout is maddening to say the least. Any suggestion would be appreciated

Does anybody have a template for 3607 deck? I want to put some synthetic decking on mine and I would love to find a template. Has anyone put decking on their 3607?

Hi everyone. I'm looking to purchase a 50 or 56 foot Carver Cockpit Motor Yacht. I'm located just outside of New York City. Please let me know if you want to sell one or know of anyone who is considering selling theirs. Thank you!

Hi folks,

I've been in the hunt for our next boat for a year now and have come across a few that could have worked, but with the market being busy these days, we've missed out on a couple of them already. I currently own a 2002 Regal 2665 Commodore that we've had for 3 seasons now, and this is our 7th boat in the last 20 years. The next boat will be a motor yacht and we've looked at Mainship 34 MY's, a couple of Silverton's, a Bayliner 3888, and a handful of Carvers (3, 3607's, and a 355).

We've pretty much nailed down the fact that we do want a Carver...and it's down to the 325, 33, 355, or 356 at this point. The 3607 would still be a contender if the right one came along. My biggest blocker for one's with 38-39' LOA's is I am in a 35' slip, and marina "rules" say no overhang...although almost every boat in my marina overhangs the slip. I may be able to get away with it, but that is why the 325 is in the mix. 40' slips are hard to come by right now.

Anyway, just wanted to say hi, get my first post out here, and start to look around.

Has anyone attempted replacing the sanitation hose on a 360 Sport Sedan? Looks like the most difficult part is the hose from the head to the pump that goes behind the fuel tank. Also assume there is a duck bill valve(s) I should look at during this repair too. Thanks for the help.

Good morning
I would like to change all my interior lights to led, 1998 4555 Carver. I have Hera 20watt ?
has any one converted yet? what are the positives and negatives?
thanks

I purchased the 2W G4 LED--12V--3000K WARM WHITE --80Ra, I thought these were dimmable but the package said they are not. Does any one know where I can find dimmable?
There are are few on the market but I need the ones that are dimmable for the salon area, the non dimmable will work for the rest of the boat.
thanks

We are updating our 2002 396 and replacing the coffee maker. My wife cleaned up the Black & Decker SpaceMaker that was on the boat and, while we have not made coffee with it, it seems to operate just fine. Seems to be in good shape, too. If anyone can use it for their Carver, I'll send it to you if you kick in a few bucks for shipping. Drop me a private message with your mailing address.

HI All,

We just purchased a 1996 Carver 325 Aft Cabin. The boat is in pretty good shape but what sold us on the purchase was the replacement of the engines and transmissions in 2019.

Looking forward to boat projects and perusing this board for help.

Does anyone have suggestions for either a hard top or bimini top to cover the aft deck?

Regards!
