Hello everyone, just wondering if anyone used the product Airlock ionizer to keep their boats smelling fresh and clean? Keep seeing their ads and read the reviews. Seems very impressive, hoping to get firsthand knowledge.
Thanks
Have fun and be safe

Hi
My 2001 Mariner 350 needs some internal repairs on the sofa. Trying to find the a source for the vinyl material ie a colour match for the original Carver colour swatches.
I'm in Ontario Canada so any local sources appreciated if you know some...
Thanks!

- Posted by: Carverlvr2 » April 7th, 2025, 12:48 pm
- Forum: Gas Engines/Transmissions
My 04 366 strbrd engine developed a small leak. Marina says it’s the oil pan but not enough room to change it out with out pulling the engine which they also don’t think they can do. I asked if they can just lift the engine up enough to change the gasket without fully pulling the engine. They said they’d have to build something to do that. Anyone run into this issue yet? Any suggestions? And yes, I’m seriously considering just putting pads down and checking levels at every start up but I’d prefer to deal with it properly if at all practical.

Hello Everyone
Just bought a 1988 3297 Mariner and have to say we love it. We own a Grady that we keep in Jersey and Caver will be kept in Maryland on the Chesapeake. Spent our 1st weekend on it and couldn't be happier, had plenty of space and everything we needed for my wife and I . Will be getting to know all of you and pick a few brains on the way.
Have fun and be safe

Doing some minor touch up. Paint is Interlux Bottomkote. The paint I have is goopy & thick, so I assume it is getting bad. Will not thin out when stirring. Can I just add some Interlux 202 thinner to it to bring it back? Just doing small areas to touch up where lift straps scraped away. Thanks in advance.

Just finished up the purchase of a 1999 406 Aft Cabin. Going to get it hauled out on Monday to get bottom paint and send the props to get balanced. Have a list of a few things to get done but nothing major. Pretty clean boat for 26 years old. Lots of great information on this site. Glad I got the Carver!

- Posted by: KuyaJunGarage » April 3rd, 2025, 8:16 am
- Forum: General Repairs & Maintenance
Hey everyone hoping someone had the same issue. After a 9 hour trip on the Carver I connected my rear shore power to the marina and when i flipped my breaker i saw my voltage at 220 for a second then pfff no power. No external circuit breakers tripped but some of these are the original breakers that i know of
So I pulled out my voltage meter to read the voltage on my “AC Selector Switch”. Anyone know where to start or had this issue before?
I do get power with front shore power port and that is working fine.
Many thanks in advance.

Good evening, Everybody,
I am proud to join Carver Owners Forum. I am a Decorated US ARMY VETERAN.
Well, I have purchased a Carver Yachts 33 Super Sport 2006 from my Father-In-Law. The yacht is in great condition. He and my Mother-In-Law kept it in great condition!!! They just bought a BIGGER Yacht. So, I am new to the boating world, but I have learned a lot already from hanging with them the last few years.
The RAYMARINE that came with the boat was changed to a GARMIN. I have attached a couple of pictures. The panel where the GARMIN is now is a mess. Is there a website or a certain place I can go to replace this panel?
